How many people actually dropped Reddit for Lemmy?
  • I quit reddit back in December, long before the API blackout, but as of last week I'm back on

    Couldn't get into Instagram or Twitter, tried Lemmy after the blackout and that unfortunately just doesn't have enough people in smaller interest communities so I'm back to Reddit because even if the comments are endless circle jerks, it's still the best place to follow smaller communities for news.

    Actually just opened Lemmy and this was the first post I saw, so I guess not much has changed around here. Y'all keep making leaving Reddit your main personality trait I guess...

  • Gamers. What was the game that got you into the hobby?
  • RuneScape, back in 2007, not that I hadn't gamed before but that was my first real game.

    I just installed the game after 13 years last week with a level 3 skiller in osrs. Just hit level 30 fishing, aiming for my first ever 99!

  • do you use e-inc tablets?
  • Bought a Kindle Paperwhite in 2018, loved that and still use it as my carry-around book because I prefer reading on that over my phone. Recently bought a Boox Nova 2 for note taking, I don't use it for that as often as I want to but I still love reading comics on Tachiyomi and regular books synced with my Kindle through their app. Love my einks cause the battery lasts for weeks at a time

  • What is your favorite todo app without a subscription?
  • Wow I just mucked around with this just an hour ago because I wanted to swap off ToDoist...

    I found Google Tasks has a bunch of cool apps that work great with its API (including a cool Raycast plugin for Mac users), apps like ToDoist and TickTick do a lot but they had too many features for my liking. I wanted something that was just a simple list like TeuxDeux which can sync between my Mac and Android.

    Settled on the Microsoft ToDo app for ephemeral tasks and I plan to beef up my obsidian vault a little to use it for more long-term tasks. Ultimately it really depends what you're looking for because there's so many options

  • Any way to listen to music (privately?)
  • My solution to this was download everything on to my 256 gb phone, so I have about 50 gb of Spotify songs/podcasts and usually switch between various playlist downloads depending on what I'm listening to

  • State of gaming on linux?
  • I've always wondered but for all the hate Valorant gets, do you feel like their anti-cheat has reduced the amount of cheaters you experience as compared to other games?

    FWIW I haven't played much Valorant

  • I want to switch to android
  • Check out AirMessage, you can set it up on your Mac and as long as it's connected to the internet, you can use the AirMessage app to get iMessage on an android.

    Alternatively there's Bubble but that requires you to Apple sign in to their system and didn't seem very safe but it doesn't require a mac

  • *Permanently Deleted*
  • One of the easiest things to do, if you use Telegram, is try to find the main group for your phone then subsequently find the group chat to different roms and pick out the one you like. It's the quickest way to get help since the telegram chats are generally quite active. Alternatively xda also works

  • Why is everyone talking about Sync? How is it better than other apps for Lemmy like Connect and Jerboa?
  • Totally anecdotal but I'd originally quit Reddit back in December and was an avid Sync user. Heard about Lemmy during the reddit drama and could just never get into it. After ljdawson dropped Sync, started to get into Lemmy!

  • Best order to get into the show without having to watch everything?

    Spent 20 minutes trying to find a thread that fit what I wanted but everyone seems to be willing to watch all of Star Trek. I tried TOS and while it's not bad I don't want to watch every single episode of Star Trek to get into the show...

    What's the best order to watch the most universally enjoyed Star Trek series' and movies? I really enjoyed Lower Decks as a fan of Final Space and Strange New World's looks incredible. I want to start with the earlier series but not have to watch all of it!

    Logseq: A privacy-first, open-source platform for knowledge management.
  • I haven't used Logseq, but I've found trying to categorise notes in Obsidian made me use it less so I just rely on backlinks as tags and to create connections between notes and dump most things in the primary vault folder. I've gotten comfortable journaling using daily notes with templates.
