I think it was! See Christian’s website for example. I think it’s easy to forget since it’s a one-time payment and fairly cheap.

I think that would be great! I’m sure it’s more difficult than it seems, though, to port over the entire backend to Lemmy, especially with its decentralized nature. Also I’m sure Christian is a bit burnt out after the Reddit fiasco, so I can’t fault him for taking a breather.

I think you're totally right! That's partially why I said it's a bigger problem on Lemmy. Tools like browse.feddit.de will be pretty important; it'd be great if they were placed prominently somewhere.

Although this issue might be more severe for Lemmy, I think it still occurs on Reddit, but it ends up working itself out. For instance, there's also a "r/tech" and (at some point) there was a "r/technologynews" subreddit, which you could view as redundant and possibly confusing to new users. But r/tech seems to have focused on longer-form more in-depth discussion while r/technology is certainly the larger and more general of the two, so most users will probably just sub to the larger one and maybe others will decide they like the vibe of r/tech more. In the long term, I'm sure a similar thing will happen to communities with the same, or close to the same, name.

I'm really excited! My partner and I immediately fell in love with it from the art-style and 2D-to-3D gameplay. No release date yet, though, right?

Do you play Legends of Runeterra? Do you want to talk LoR decks, memes, and strategies? Join /c/legendsofruneterra!

This was one of my favorite subreddits on Reddit, and I'm hoping to get something started here! (hopefully some r/legendsofruneterra mods will eventually come over and take the reign)

Apollo is similar! iirc the only "functional" feature locked beyond a paywall is submitting posts (which you could argue is a pretty big feature to lock away). But I think the majority of users rarely submit posts, and the "pro" tier was just a one-time $5 payment. I found Apollo very intuitive to use and very minimalistic; there was very little fluff to distract from posts and comments.

Honestly, their house blend is really good (Rathskeller House Blend). I also like the Genji Challa for a lighter roast.

Should all instances of duplicated posts be gone? I’m still seeing this occasionally on my “All” feed (I’ve confirmed they are from the same server).

In Boston area, I really like Pavement Coffee! They have a few locations around here. I’ve used their coffee for pour over and espresso and it’s great for both!

As a nice bonus, they also have great homemade bagels.

The community path is now open!. Beyond commuting to and from the green line extension, it looks like this could be nice for recreation, as an extension of the Minuteman.

Anyone here bike as their main form of commute?

Thoughts on Wooting? (next.wooting.io)

Anyone have any thoughts / experience with the Wooting optical switch keyboards? I like the idea of having an optical WASD. When playing games on a keyboard, motion being a binary toggle is more jarring than when using a joystick.

I was worried about compatibility, but it seems like the Wooting can emulate a controller so it just requires the game to support simultaneous keyboard / joystick input.

Cool to hear you play Runeterra! I created /c/legendsofruneterra@lemmy.world yesterday. Share any decks you’ve been playing there :)

[-] WooChooTrain@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Definitely. I’m currently using Mlem, and it does channel the vibe of Apollo in some ways. It’s definitely not as feature-rich, but that’s likely just because it’s fairly new (and in beta).

[-] WooChooTrain@lemmy.world 1 points 1 year ago

Well in any case, doesn’t look like there’s hope of a Bloodborne remaster or port to PC, so for now we can play Lies of P ;)

I recently beat the first boss and am having a good time so far. I find the dodge a bit clunky, but it seems like the game is trying to push you more towards blocking (and perfect blocking).

Overall, I love the fact that a demo for this game exists and that it feels quite polished!

Never had the chance before, but seems like now's my opportunity...

Apollo Is a Work of Art (daringfireball.net)

Apollo has been one of my most used apps the past couple years... it'll be sad saying goodbye.
