Fediverse does everything I require out of social media. Functionality of threadiverse is mostly there and getting better (Piefed will probably replace Lemmy as the go-to eventually), apps are better. Mastodon / microblogging was always good enough for communicating with real people, it’s when you’re an influencer you run into limitations but who cares about that. Maybe there aren’t that many people that are into this and that’s okay because we’re not a corporation that needs to report quarterly growth forever.

I use an iPhone and a Mac but I assume Android as a more open platform has even more of those.

Like those?

I would say that this is an indication that Piefed support is on the cards but might require development on Piefed end too.

There’s less pictures there and it’s sold out. I tend not to link to storefronts too because I’m not a salesman.

Yes.

Redlib does that but it’s a game of cat and mouse these days. Facebook fought off web scrapers and while Reddit is much less technically competent they’ll get there too eventually.

Reddit makes browsing without account harder and harder. I assume the end goal is a walled unindexable garden like Facebook or Discord.

I assume those who were interested enough could whip out a script to do that easily until Reddit disabled API which is the moment I lost interest in the platform. I don’t know how people do it these days without getting accounts suspended for automated traffic but it’s something you have to consider and probably the reasons why such tools are not available widely.

Reddit won’t show you that your comment was removed by a mod and shows removed comments on user profiles (unless they had to be nuked for legal reasons). If you suspect you’re shadow banned or if your comment was quietly removed you have to check for that from a separate account in that comment thread directly.

Having user supply some copyrighted software that they should own (like BIOS or decryption keys) is entirely different from an emulator or a homebrew project taking and integrating copyrighted code. They’re lucky Nintendo didn’t sue them into oblivion like that modchip guy because they really could.

Whelp, they’re lucky Nintendo didn’t care enough. Wondering what prompted this?

Added channel name to the title which I usually do, but forgot to in this case. People who’ll be interested will probably know if they want to see it since Summoning Salt is a household brand but for others it might be a bit too niche and that’s fine too.

Apologies to the elderly for posting it here.

Wondering if we’ll see X68000 core one day, I’m very interested in that Japanese Amiga.

It can’t be stopped this way but this is just some friction or increasing barrier to entry to discourage it. Most people are lazy and will just drop it as not worth the effort, and the most persistent will be annoying no matter what you do.

I think this might have survived reinstall but I never remember where you can reset it in the settings. Supposedly it’s somewhere there but I only hide read posts by accident and learned to live with occasional loss.

Did you by any chance enable auto hiding read posts?

He’s the number one in the Pokédex and in my heart.
