  • I don't like that the very first thing you see when you click on download is "purchase for $40" and then they list the benefits of doing so, which basically boil down to:

    1- custom gnome themes 2- Professional-grade creative suite of apps 3- Advanced productivity software

    Number 1 is a joke. Number 2 & 3 I think are basically scams. What apps? They don't list them at all. If they are proprietary then how can you support these apps with this pricing model, if they are not, then are they just downloadable by anyone on almost any distro for free?

    The entire thing smells bad. I vote to stay far away.

  • How many people here are Private-Tracker only?
  • if you have a seedbox, the easy way to get a good ratio is just to follow whatever release group is popular on the site, and just literally start seeding every single thing they release. Often times on PHD you'll get a free or half download if it's an internal group, and if it's a popular movie or show it'll get loads of downloads. I did this exact thing, and after a little while I had basically infinite ratio and have been using the site for years without even worrying about ratio.

  • What games have y'all been playing a lot on your deck recently?
  • Absolutely! Have been really wanting something to follow up my Dredge addiction this past winter, and this seems perfect. Love how there's constantly new stuff happening. The core gameplay loop is perfectly sound as well.

  • What search engine do you use?
  • I honestly haven't noticed this. I can almost always find what I'm looking for with a general ddg search. Interesting.

  • Oblivion Remastered Road to Release (Skyblivion Roadmap 2023)
  • You can already have a wonderful time in Morrowind with the openmw engine. Depending on how far you want to go with mods, you can even make it look gorgeous. It's amazing how much content is there too, with Tamriel, etc... Great time!

  • YouTube --> PeerTube Next?
  • The ads are out of control, so no, it's not great unless you use an adblocker, which on mobile doesn't work with the native client.

  • Owner of Destructoid, The Escapist, Siliconera, and others Fires Writers and Hires for "AI Editor" to Churn Out Hundreds of Articles Per Week
  • Really sad to see them fall so far. I remember back when they seemed like a beacon of light and hope of good communities and journalists etc. now to see them turn into just a spam garbage site is so sad.

  • With the decline of twitter and reddit, it's time to take a look at RSS again if you haven't already.
  • I use NewsBlur as a backend and Unread as a front end and absolutely love it. For whatever reason unread can often pull the entire article when NewsBlur won’t. Works great!

  • FYI, Lemmy and Kbin are Progressive Web Apps, meaning you can install them as regular apps to your phone's home screen
  • Link to the native iOS kbin app that’s outside of TestFlight? Same for lemmy?
