About the only thing we can do is unsubscribe from and block the dozen or so "Reddit Sucks" communities/magazines, and report the "We Still Hate Reddit" threads that pop up elsewhere for being posted in the wrong place (like Technology or Gaming or wherever).

Peeko , to gaming in GOOD games with female protagonists?

Life is Strange games! More story then anything, and the dialog is a bit cringy these days but there’s really no other games like it and I highly recommend them.

Specifically the first game (unarguably the best one), its prequel, and True Colours. Life Is Strange 2 has two brothers, instead. They're all very, very good games that all have made me cry (some multiple times).

They're also pretty gay if that interests you.

@owenfromcanada@lemmy.world avatar

To add to the other responses, I think there’s maybe a sense of relief or novelty in it, as the rest of many of these games are intense and/or violent. Having a little wholesome moment in the midst of all that really stands out.

CyanFen , to nostupidquestions in Why can’t we fall asleep on command?

I would imagine our hunter gatherer ancestors had a far easier time falling asleep given their activity level during the day, their diet, and their lack of artificial lighting (particularly blue light).

How do you feel about Digg?

The same way I feel about MySpace

You wish you’d never have switched from Friendster?

Economizer , to android in What is the status of Magisk? How to hide root?

I use Magisk Delta (a fork of Magisk) on an otherwise stock Pixel 7 Pro. Everything works including banking apps and Google Pay.

mrjfilippo ,

What made you choose the delta fork over the original? First time I hear of it.

Economizer ,

Because the dev now works at Google, he had to remove the root hiding functions called SU Hide. You can bring it back with various modules, but I was lazy and wanted a install one, do all solution.

Magisk Delta is a fork that brings back SU Hide, and I haven’t needed to install an extra app to fix any apps it couldn’t hide root from.

bonegakrejg , to books in In need of thrilling escapism!

The Gentlemen Bastards series has a very cool world and fun characters.

The Expanse for scifi.

Did you watch the show? I just finished and now want to start the books from the beginning so I can get the full series, but it’s going to be a very long read.

I’m not sure that you really need to. It’s the hot topic of the moment for obvious reasons, but it’ll die down soon enough. Just needs a little time.

DestroyerOfWorlds , to cooking in What are the best cooking hacks you've learned over the years?
@DestroyerOfWorlds@lemmy.world avatar

pay attention. stay with what you are cooking as you are cooking it. don’t let yourself become distracted. taste as you go. take notes. use unsalted butter. know your equipment and its pros/cons. shop at different stores for the best ingredients. fresh herbs are waaay better if you can swing it.

Hi! Thanks for featuring our little Now Lemmy Explain community here. !nowlemmyexplain

So, Lemmy soapbox a little bit:

I’ve felt that /r/eli5 was some of the best content in the Old Country, but somewhere along the way, it lost the fun aspect it once had. Everything there is so sanitized that it no longer has the feeling of community anymore.

In the age of large language models, getting a simplified summary of a complex idea is pretty much just a copypaste away, and I don’t really see the need of having a place for what ELI5 currently is when it can be automated away, but I’m willing to admit that I may be wrong.

My ultimate goal would be having a place for people to explain things that would not be possible for machines, it should be entertaining to read instead of making your eyes glaze over, because first and foremost, on Lemmy, we are rebuilding a place for specifically people to get engaged and inspired by each other, because that’s what a community is.

There’s overlap between NSQ here and NLE of course, but I think the best way to explain it (or, Now Lemmy Explain: ) is that NSQ focuses on getting any answer to simple questions, while NLE focuses on getting simple answers to any question.

So, if you have any topic you’d like to have explained, please make a post there, and we’ll all try our best.

void , to gaming in Diablo IV has been disappointing so far

I also enjoyed it far less than I wanted to. Re: Your 2nd point : I find this really funny as I just started a sorc the other day and one my first reactions was how terrible the spell animations look for a modern game. I’ve been tempted to re-install Diablo 3 just to compare them, as I remember them being much better.

I finished the campaign as a Druid and am now tinkering with the other classes, so nowhere near endgame, all my feedback is just from the above.

  • The writing is bad, laughably bad. Not like, bad grammar or sloppy prose bad but just like…written by a really edgy teenager and then heavily edited by adults who weren’t allowed to change any of the actual plot points bad? There were some good ideas (trying to avoid spoilers), but (for me) none of them ever went anywhere. And there were so many just…dumb/silly things…nevermind all the cutscenes rendered with the games engine that look laughably bad/amateur compared to Blizzard games like…what is going on with those??
  • D3 items were a hot mess of garbage compared to D2 and I think these might be a tiny bit better, but still seem overly messy and the mod pool is too big. I also don’t think I found a “real” unique yet? They all seem like RNG trash just there for the aspects to be extracted? I could be wrong here, maybe the real uniques come later but if so that’s (more) bad design imho.
  • frequent lag
  • agree on the automap. Quest interface also seems poorly designed and very frustrating to use.
  • the whole thing feels aggressively like a console game ported to PC, not vice versa. I strongly dislike that in my PC games.

FWIW, I’m enjoying playing my sorc more than the druid, but we’ll see. By the last 2 acts, I could close my eyes and hold two buttons and kill any of the bosses (except the last boss where you have move 3-4 times).

As long as we don’t get a thousand wallpaper apps, I’d be down for that

I would also say that a Twitter post is not news, but unfortunately a lot of politicians have not gotten that notice yet.
