As a ‘front page of the internet’ it has been a pretty great replacement for me as it’s where I go each day to just see what’s going on. However, due to the smaller size you do lose a lot of the activity in more niche communities and the sheer volume of posts/comments compared to Reddit. That’s the biggest downside. Still, you also lose the incessant ads/bad UI/UX decisions and ever accelerating late stage capitalism driven enshittification so that’s a big plus.

Can you clarify what the problem is that this solves? Your charging cable wiggles too much when it is plugged into the top? If so, I don’t appear to have that issue at least that I’ve noticed.

Tend to start with top (day) for my subs and then switch to scaled once I get down to posts that are below 100 upvotes or so to see more posts from smaller communities that can’t make that ‘top’ cut.

Or you already use Proton Mail / Drive etc and want to save a bit of money with Proton Unlimited at 9.99 EUR/USD / mo. That’s why I switched from Mullvad. I do agree that overall though Mullvad is the best in terms of trustworthiness (so far as we know anyway)

Furiously hammers X to doubt

This kind of technocratic approach can sound great and it’s always good to have policy and positions formed by those most knowledgeable in the relevant field. The problem is that the “experts” that will likely have her ear will be the ones that are vetted and approved by the power elite, the wealthiest in this country who will largely recommend what is best to protect their privilege, wealth and position.

Agreed, but it’s not gonna happen. Too far left, two demonized by the right and I don’t think they want two women on the ticket. It’s 2024 and sad to say it will still be hard enough to overcome sexism for many voters just for Harris.

Not exactly what I was thinking of but still worth a sub!

TBH This might be a good enough idea to merit a whole community of people just posting singular cool screenshots of games they are playing. Could be a cool low-effort visual way to document what folks are into at the moment. Kind of like a visual version of those ‘what are you playing’ weekly threads that used to be everywhere.

This is the kind of news that should actually be posted on all of the ‘uplifting news’ communities, instead of ‘teen works 600 hours for minimum wage to help pay for his mother’s dialysis’ or whatever…

What is the deal with any negative Biden polling news being downvoted into oblivion?

The study included 180 male psychologists from King Khalid University in Saudi Arabia

This is kind of a small sample size and why only males? Do they not have female psychologists in Saudi Arabia?

Yeah I have the Killswitch from Dbrand. It’s a great case and the travel cover makes the deck borderline indestructible. It is a bit pricey though at $75 but that also includes a kickstand (with built in microSD storage) and a skin of your choice. https://dbrand.com/shop/grip/steam-deck-cases

It looks like it will support DLSS3 (frame generation) so if you have a 40 series card (or almost any card with a bit of time to install that DLSS to FSR3 mod) that should be a nice boost.

Wow… didn’t see that coming… /s

Not sure. I’ve never heard of that one. I’ll check it out though.

That would also be great

Yeah I’d love one for how restaurants and companies treat their workers. There was a group that made something like that for the NYC area years back I think but I don’t believe it ever took off. I believe it was released by ROC.

Thanks for all the ongoing development work. If you all haven’t you should definitely consider an ongoing donation to support the project. I joined Lemmy a few years ago but ever since Reddit imploded and went full greed-mode in preparation for the IPO it has been my primary social link aggregator. Been on a monthly ongoing donation since then.
