For Wumbo?

Is HotS included?

Honestly I think this is probably one of the many secrets to long-term happiness. Ignorance is bliss, as they say

I remember being 13-15 and not caring at all what the news was. Better times, I think

I’ve been playing Endless Sky, which is a free space sim (lite). Been really enjoying it.

I got stuck overnight at the airport with my Deck and this game saved me from falling in to insanity. Hard recommend keeping it installed in case of emergency

Ah man that’s a huge bummer. Thanks for checking in on that. Hopefully it’ll get there!

I’ve done some other xemu emulation for Deck and over all it’s pretty solid. Minor stuttering in Ninja Gaiden Black, but it’s completely playable

This is my first time playing Freelancer, but I’ve dabbled heavily in Star Citizen over the last many years, and I love how you can see the roots of Star Citizen in Freelancer. It’s got that great atmosphere and aesthetic that you can see he’s trying to expand in his newer work. Too bad it’ll never release 😅

Is it really so surprising? They have the entire Instagram userbase to feed off of. All the Instagram users have to do is open Threads and they are already a user. The userbase was already there, Meta just had to activate it.

I think for this same reason Threads probably will stick around. Especially with the way Twitter is going. Can’t say I’ll be joining in on the fun though

Unsure! All I know is I follow Fediverse magazine and that’s constantly consuming my entire Microblog sub feed 😅

Right, but if Threads starts blowing up #Boston or some other Magazine I follow that could be a problem right?

Ah I didn’t know that! Very cool. I thought when someone hashtagged something it would just show up in the Microblog for that tag

Will a large platform like Meta joining Mastodon overwhelm smaller servers?

This could be interesting for Kbin, it’s true that Mastodon shouldn’t see an influx of Threads only content, but the Microblog for Kbin may be overwhelmed, since it’s followed by tag, at least how I’m using it, not user

Well, you better go catch it

Seize the memes of production

Does the fediverse need to consume all of the traffic that’s currently directed at other platforms? I think the best thing about the Fediverse is that it provides more options for online social spaces.

If I don’t like Twitter I can try something else. If I don’t like Reddit I can go elsewhere. It doesn’t have to be the exact same thing as those services, as long as it provides me an enjoyable way to consume information in my free time.

I don’t feel like the goal is to absorb all of the traffic from every other site though? Or if it is that seems misguided.

I’m very much enjoying my time on Kbin, even if it is janky and new and imperfect. All of that is actually kind of refreshing

I was hoping that because Kbin does support mastodon posts it might work. I’d love to see that integration

Is there any federated interaction between BookWyrm and Kbin? Can I follow book or author updates or keep up with reviews or conversation?

I feel like it’s going to take awhile for people used to Facebook / Twitter / Reddit / Etc to get used to having multiple platforms that cater to the exact same audience. Lemmy / Kbin basically do the same thing, with slightly different minor features. Most people aren’t used to having options.

That said I feel like having some standardized naming across the fediverse wouldn’t hurt with things that are synonymous, if that’s not already happening. There’s a valid argument for magazines and communities not being the same thing
