LolaCat , to fediverse in Facebook alternative?

Not sure about any that try to be exactly like Facebook. The closest off the top of my head is Pixelfed which is meant to be like instagram if that seems like something you’d be interested in.

Feeling justified to troll arrogant people is arrogant.

gobbling871 , to android in What's your favourite keyboard app? ⌨️

I used to love Swiftkey before it sold out to Microsoft. I use Gboard with network permissions off nowadays.

Schaedelbach ,

Aside from the useless features overkill, I still think SwiftKey is the best Android keyboard. I ignore 90% of the stuff they implement. Quite frankly I am almost unable to type quick without it.

randomTingler , to selfhosted in Should I use dedicated hardware?

What I feel is that you need do is to compare the cost of power supply vs hardware then choose whichever is cheaper.

sub_ , to gaming in I finally got a Switch! What now?

Do you own a PC or other console?

Nintendo Switch is great for 1st party games and some exclusives, but frame rate / resolution might not be able to compete with other consoles, plus the MSRP of many games on e-shop can be 1 - 3 bucks more expensive compared to, say PSN.

If this is your only gaming device, then maybe consider Crisis Core, Hollow Knight, Octopath Traveler 2, Live a Live. If it’s not, then stick to 1st party games, exclusives, and graphically less taxing games.

Also maybe consider getting 3rd party controllers

As for discounts, I use DekuDeals to keep track of the price drops. Most 1st party Nintendo games only have discount up to 33%, and those discounts happen like 2 - 3 times a year. While 3rd party games… I swear to god I’ve seen games that are on sale every month or so.

LachlanUnchained , to asklemmy in What event did you miss that saved your life

Sometimes, it’s surprising how life unfolds. I remember back in my second year at boarding school, we were all set to return for another term, standing on the train station platform. Fooling around, we missed the train.

With no other options and perhaps a bit of youthful audacity, we took dads old ford and we ended up driving it all the way to school.

The car broke down, we almost got caught. Then crazily, we crashed into a famous tree on campus.

However, as wild as that was, missing that train might just have saved us.

We later found out that the Chamber of Secrets had been opened around the time we were meant to be on that train. A deadly monster, a Basilisk, was slithering around the castle, able to kill just by meeting your gaze.

Who’s to say we wouldn’t have bumped into it, had we made that train? With our track record of stumbling into trouble, it seems more than likely. It’s a chilling thought.

Do you use the ENV file, and can you post that? (No passwords)

@leraje@lemmy.world avatar

I’m running a calckey instance and have no issue. Akkomas site claims it federates with Mastodon so is it maybe a non-Akkoma issue? Something in your server setup maybe?

dragonfly , to cat in is sit/stay a mean trick to teach a cat?

Teach him high five, it’s pretty easy and super cute. Also, if you haven’t already, get a harness and start training him for that so you can take walks together safely. Hiding treats is a great activity, it helps satisfy the hunting urge. You can even do this with regular food, hide small amounts in various changing locations around your space, so he has to go hunting.

thanks so much this is a super helpful reply : ))

MusketeerX , to fediverse in Do any mobile apps have 'mark read once scrolled past posts' yet?

Yes, Connect For Lemmy had this.

RichRatsch ,

And on top of that you can also hide read posts! Loving connect so far!

Connect dev here, glad you’re liking it!

Connect also now supports marking posts as read when viewing the image and also instance-level blocking.

Your app is the best. Hoping for volume button for comment navigation to be added one day, and then its basically perfect!

Thank you for Connect. It’s my favorite app so far

Pepperette ,

It’s a great app! Thanks! But unless I’m missing something, there needs to be an easier way to subscribe to communities.

Pepperette ,

I did indeed miss that. From the feed you can only block things, not subscribe. I thought you had to go to the sidebar of the community to subscribe. Cheers!

MoogleMaestro , to gaming in I finally got a Switch! What now?

Do you have a PC?

If you do, obviously most of Nintendo's titles are worth having. Zelda games are an easy recommend, but also Splatoon is pretty great.

If not, there's tons of games that are good that aren't Nintendo games that I think are worth having.

  • Octopath Traveler is awesome. I haven't played 2 yet, but I can recommend 1 if you like JRPGs
  • All legacy FF games are on the platform to some capacity
  • Ace Attorney game collections are great if you like visual novels
  • Basically every indie is on the platform at this point. Hollow Knight, Shovel Knight, Axiom Verge, probably a lot of others but those are some big names that come to mind.
  • Otherwise, I would avoid ports that haven't gotten good reviews. Also, make sure that the games aren't "cloud only" unless you're comfortable with that.
vagabond , to fediverse in Do any mobile apps have 'mark read once scrolled past posts' yet?

It’s a progressive web app instead of a native app, but Voyager just recently added this! You can check it out here: vger.app

FarLine99 ,

Voyager is incredible. Such a polished experience!

unagi ,

Why doesn’t Voyager allow to log in to any Lemmy instance except for a select few?

EDIT: Never mind, I had to do a few more taps to discover how to do it.

teydam ,

this looks the same as wefwef.app lol

gfrewqpoiu ,

They actually renamed wefwef to Voyager.

lagomorphlecture ,

Oh wait is the new name a star trek reference then? Noice.

tartan , to fediverse in Do any mobile apps have 'mark read once scrolled past posts' yet?

Yes, Voyager.

FarLine99 ,

Voyager is ❤️

tartan ,

I tried 3-4 different apps before landing on it. I’m not even a little bit tempted to try anything else. It’s almost obscene how quickly they managed to make an Apollo clone for Lemmy.

FarLine99 ,

New modern frameworks can be heavy but require a lot less time to do something like this 🙂

DrQuint , (edited )

I’ve tried others.

All of them preload images in posts AND comments.

Some of them let you disable it for posts.

None let you disable it for comments.

I do not use others. Voyager is the best.

Yes, that was the decisive aspect. Fuck preloading images. I do not deign a comment more worth the screenspace just because someone posted an image link, I consider it app-breaking bloat. And man, I like some bloat. I’d be cool with voyager loading avatars or tables if they wanted. Just not things that break the flow of text.

(… I do have Thunder installed just in case they make it a setting. I like the interface.)

elbarto777 ,

Liftoff can be configured to not preload images. It drove me nuts to see NSFW being slapped on my face while on the bus. Then I found a toggle.

ericisshort ,

Only problem I have with voyager is the bug where it sometimes won’t let you comment. Error message says I must select a language in my Lemmy profile, but I already have two languages selected. I emailed the dev, and he amazingly responded in like 3 minutes with a kind explanation that he’s already working on a fix.

dan ,

They renamed wefwef?

Edit: They renamed wefwef.
