The Pokemon go plus+ (yes it’s two pluses) is a little device, sister like a flattened PokeBall, rather than a service.

I got put into Youtube Premium when Google Play Music merged, so I think of it as equivalent to Spotify premium, but also: you can also upload your own music library, you get ads removed on Youtube videos, and offline play for both music and videos.

It’s decently worth it if you reference Spotify Premium’s cost (and also I’ve been at 9.99USD/mo this whole time and not been hit with any price increases at all for some reason?)

It’ll happen if Lemmy gets big enough. I only worry about search engines getting tangled in the natural duplication of Lemmy posts.

Like, if a web crawler sees a Beehaw post, and then seees Lemmy.ml’s mirrored page of that same post, could it just show up as two different results? Could it work against the SEO in that it gets marked as “duplicate” or “spam” content in some way?

League of Legends is toxic in the way of people getting too emotionally invested in a game, but Counterstrike (in the old days, pre Source and GO) was toxic in a casually bigoted way almost completely detached from the state of the current match, which I think is worse.

I guess I gotta start looking at self-hosted aggregator solutions. I hope one of them has per-podcast playback speed settings/autoskip capabilities. I use the heck out of those.

Oooh yeah this was it. I had previously selected a few, but at some point trying to fix it, I clicked instead of ctrl+clicked and it deselected everything else.

Thanks a bunch!

Been on Reddit since 2010. I’m hoping that Lemmy and other Fediverse apps sort of grow out of the meta-talk and comparisons to their centralized counterparts.

Otherwise, the communities themselves seem pleasant (or swiftly defederated from by the good ones). We don’t quite the critical mass to get active niche communities, or hyper-specialized ones yet, which I kind of miss. Stuff like “here’s a subreddit for each of these very specific habits that cats can have”, or “talk about a particular species of parrot”, y’know?

Nice! This is the client I had settled on for years, so it’s good to see it live on, for this platform.

Is there something killer about FreshRSS that makes you host that rather than using the Nextcloud RSS reader support? I used to have TT-RSS before I dropped it and my filesyncinc stuff for Nextcloud.

Pikmin was a pretty decent fit, but they dropped the seemingly easiest ball on gameplay! Niantic already have a flinging-objects mechanic, and Pikmin has a central “throwing Pikmin on the enemy” mechanic. They should’ve had some kinda action mechanic where you chuck your pikmin at the target!

I wish I could at least separate my likes list by content type. I hit like/dislike on shorts way more frequently than long-form videos to train that algorithm, but when I go into that list, I’m usually trying to find a long-form video from a while back.

I’ve got a Synology NAS running Home Assistant and basic NAS stuff (mostly backing up NextCloud).

I’ve got a Linode (might move if I get less lazy) running NextCloud, and a setup for a Minecraft server I haven’t run for years. That NextCloud server replaced BTSync/Syncthing and TTRSS servers, and also now does my password syncing via KeePass, and contacts through webdav.

Niantic seems to have trouble telling if a franchise is a good fit for the tech they have and the gameplay it enables. Marvel, Transformers, HP, and Basketball don’t lend themselves well to the grindy collection and exploration mechanics.

We’ll see how well Monster Hunter holds up, gameplay wise. It at least has a repeatable thing that sorta makes sense thematically (like fighting several Rathalos to gather parts) as opposed to having 5 clones of LeBron James or getting… stickers of stuff that you might recognize.
