Making your own protocols means vulnerabilities are more likely. Better to use one that’s been tested and audited (unless it’s following something like this EU thing of course)

Oh my god that trailer was so good

the world also needs more concise games

Yeah!

those 20-40 hour masterpieces

…wait, concise?

The app also doesn’t let you add your own music, though… Very annoying, cause some songs aren’t on streaming services

However long it usually takes Nintendo to approve updates. Dev said approximately a week or two

I think you still need a phone number though. I think that’s just for if you don’t want to give out your phone number.

Yeah signal, telegram, and whatsapp all want phone numbers I think. And I don’t think I’d be able to convince my mum to use Discord or Matrix. She’d probably end up using something like Facebook Messenger/Messenger Kids

The email vendor doesn’t really matter though unless you are sending or receiving emails. Phone numbers require you to pay a carrier every month. And while most people have phone numbers, some don’t, especially children.

My mum used iMessage to communicate with my sister before she got a phone number. If she switched to Android, I guess there’s Google Chat, but you know how Google is with their chat apps.

Ideally you’d be able to choose between phone number OR email. Like iMessage.

It’s not about worrying that I won’t be able to do stuff again, just the existence of the ever-looming timer is stressful. And you have to water your crops every morning, and harvest them when they’re ready. You can only plant certain crops in certain seasons. There are requests on the bulletin board that have time limits. Shops are only open on certain days, and I know if I don’t do that thing today I won’t be able to tomorrow because it will be closed. If the timer didn’t matter, then there wouldn’t be a timer.

Don’t get me wrong, I like Stardew Valley. But I stopped playing it, partly because I found it too stressful. Which isn’t great cause people always advertise it as this really relaxing game, and I’m sure it is for them, but I guess my brain just works differently. And I really want to like Stardew Valley more, I want to be able to play it and relax.

I’m not even trying to minmax or anything, I try to take my time, but it doesn’t really work. I can’t just ignore the timer, cause then I’ll pass out and wake up with hardly any stamina.

Edit: Also “you can just focus on one thing” sure, but then what do I do for the rest of the day?

You just got lucky, I guess. Or maybe you don’t use the joycons as much? I had to send my joycons back because of drift 3 times. Joycons aren’t full on falling out, but one of them will come out without pressing the button. Kickstand is also pretty useless, falls out from a tiny bit of pressure.

Yeah. It’s not even the fact that they don’t implement Nearby Share themselves that’s bad, it’s that the restrictions they impose on apps means that an app can’t even implement Nearby Share themselves

There is NO upside to federation with Threads. Zero.

That’s a bit of an exaggeration. I don’t think it will affect Lemmy at all, since it’s a different type of posts. But in terms of Mastodon, it means a whole lot more content for Mastodon users, and a whole lot more people to follow. And also means that people can move to Mastodon while still having the audience that Threads provides.

Of course if you think that the downsides are worse than the upsides, then that doesn’t really matter. But don’t say there are NO upsides.

How do you set it up without a server. I can’t get past this screen

Edit: Also on that web page is says that downloads are locked behind Plex Pass, that’s pretty vital…

Yeah I just wish there was a toggle.

Also didn’t they have a thing like smart shuffle before, it was just called radio. But they seem to have removed it and replaced it with smart shuffle for playlists. I can only see the radio option for albums. That was better, because then it only did it when I wanted it.

Need a Plex server though :/

Also cost $6.50AUD a month, way too much.

Also what is the change to playlists? I wasn’t aware Spotify had folders. Did they remove them?

Edit: Nevermind they’re still there. What did they change?

I love it because I never use liked songs (I don’t understand how people do, using the same playlist forever. Do your tastes never change? Idk each to their own).

So it means 1: I can easily add songs to multiple playlists at once. I have 4 different playlists that I listen to, and sometimes a song fits all 4, and it used to take 12 taps to add it to all 4 (tap dots, tap add, tap playlist, 4 times). Now it only takes 6.

2: I can now see if the song is already in a playlist. Before the only way was to try adding it to the playlist and see if it warned me of a duplicate.

3: Now I can see at a glance if it’s added to a playlist. If it’s added to 1 playlist then it’s probably added to all the playlists it needs to be.

And you can still add songs to your liked songs in 1 tap. I feel like the reason most people dont like it is because it’s a change that they aren’t used to.

But really, the ideal solution would’ve been if Spotify just added a settings option to change it back to the old way. But Spotify seems to be vehemently opposed to options.

Also, what’s way worse than the new like button is the stupid “smart shuffle”. I just want to turn off shuffle, but now I have to press it again. And it’s also really buggy, it will often display shuffle as off when it’s really on smart shuffle, so I get unpleasantly surprised with some random song I’ve never heard. I really wish there were third party apps for Spotify, cause the Spotify app kinda sucks

Yeah. The number one reason I won’t subscribe is that if their library is missing a song, you can’t even add it yourself. Both Spotify and Apple Music allow adding your own MP3s, how does Tidal not have that feature?!

Ehhh I don’t like the new one. Calibri’s better. I wish it had a better g though.

I also would like to know. I use KDE Neon right now, but a more up-to-date ubuntu base would be great. I just don’t see a distro that does that and uses KDE. And I don’t want to use a Canonical distro with all the stupid snaps and stuff
