  • If the fediverse is shedding users, it’s because we still haven’t figured out a better way to explain federation other than “it’s like email”, the process of choosing an instance is vague and daunting, the process of moving to a new instance is vague and daunting, and people instance-police incessantly, creating a feeling that you have to choose the correct instance. That, plus the pervasive misogyny that rears its ugly head every once in a while.

    I promise you though, people being “unwelcoming” by using silly terms is not why the fediverse is shedding users.







  • developpers might look at making games playable on less powerful hardware

    Yes, please let this lead to devs focusing on efficiency again. I don’t need real time physics simulations and “lifelike” facial animations that still haven’t found a way out of the uncanny valley after like two decades.

    I want snappy load times, download and install sizes in the tens of gigabytes, not hundreds, consistent frame rates even when there’s a lot going on on the screen. I have more VRAM than God, yet I still get stuttering in some games on high graphics settings. It’s pathetic.
