Because it isn’t unless you play competitive really. Since I generally hate sweaty online competitive games I don’t really mind if frames are under 60 sometimes. The only online games I play are slower paced where a frame coming slightly quicker wouldn’t be a huge advantage.
That’s why I built a high end PC with a 144hz 1440p monitor.
Hell yeah, I’m concerned that if SDF decides to block instance they will include Lemmygrad and Hexbear so I might make an account on yours. I assume you’re defederated from stuff like exploding heads, rammy, and burggitt?
Actually just checked your list, perfect blocked instances list and absolutely sick instance theme. Love it. I’m in 😎
I made my first account on aussie.zone since I’m Australian but wanted access to Lemmygrad, and now Hexbear. Aussie.zone is great apart from that, I’d love a local feed full of Australian stuff.
I like the sound of that, is hexbear federated with your instance yet?
Hexbear was a fork of Lemmy made by former chapotraphouse users when they were booted off Reddit. They have recently worked to refederate with a select number of instances, with the potential of adding more in the future if it doesn’t disrupt the community they’ve built. Luckily for me, SDF is in the whitelist, although I also have an account on Grad and TTRPG.
Lemmy.world preemptively defederated with them based on a pretty bad reading of a hexbear announcement on how to behave in other instances, despite world’s reluctance on federating from exploding heads originally.
Because of the unfortunate centralisation that’s happened, with so many people being directed to lemmy.world or choosing to go there, a big DDoS attack on world would disrupt a lot of communities that people on other instances use. It’s in everyone’s interests to spread the load more, which is why I find it sad when some communities migrate to world. UnixPorn was one, although it was already on lemmy.ml which is a larger instance too
For me, I would want to to federate and not be defederated by with Lemmygrad and Hexbear, while also having the same for things like aussie.zone, pathfinder.social, slrpnk.net, and the larger instances so I can pick out good communities from them. Stability matters more than size for me, I have no issues with the all feed and actually have had to block some communities due to spam or lack of interest as it is.
Also, is it the case that it only shows communities someone is subscribed to in all, or is it discovered communities?
The web browser works fine for me, and then I don’t have a other app on my phone. I’ve tried a bunch of different apps, Jerboa, Liftoff, Wefwef/voyager, and connect, and I keep coming back to just viewing it in browser. Haven’t tried Sync because the idea of wilfully putting ads into a thing that doesn’t have them is disgusting to me.

I only found firefish the other day but 'like Mastodon but cool" is a perfect way to describe it.
Best instance, I hope they make a firefish one.
Considering this user made an account on lemmy.ml to post this, and the community in world was made by the same user with a world account, maybe they don’t understand the federation aspect correctly. It seems to happen a lot, and it’s frustrating because it leads to one huge instance in lemmy.world.
Hell yeah Morrowind! I like Skyrim ok but it feels bland somehow next to the weird setting and deeper mechanics in Morrowind
Cassette Beasts is so good! They are bringing out an update soonish with a new area too.
Yeah that one is fairly active. The issue with browsing all is the amount of posts that come out of lemmyshitposting and memes that flood the feed.
I can’t recommend lemmyverse.net enough to find cool instances and communities. Once you find a community you like on it just copy the URL and paste it into a search from your instance.
True you can, it’s a very small issue. The problem is they were always at or near the top. One chain isn’t that bad, but seeing it over and over again on interesting posts gets old fast.
I hope to see less song lyric comment chains on completely unrelated posts. Also I don’t know why, but I always hated the whole, ‘my partner, let’s call them blank (not real name)’ thing.
A good documentary, on the USSR though not modern Russia, is The Human Face of Russia. You can find it on YouTube. It’s Australian as well so it’s interesting seeing a look into the Soviet Union from the point of view of a country that is aligned with the US but without so much Red Scare propaganda.
