It's just way faster for me most of the time. I can hit F12, do what I need, and be done without messing around with a mouse or touchpad.

Pixelfed is the one i'm hoping for too. I follow a few people on there, but it would be nice if anyone I knew used it.

My laptops and RPis aren't named anything interesting. My server is named Lyla though. I let my youngest kid pick the name.

Jet Set Radio Future?

For what it's worth, i'm running it on a VPS that cost $25 USD for the year, and it is running fine.

I didn't want to open my homeserver up for lemmy.

This is the exact setup I use and it works great!

I think it actually runs better on Samsung Internet over Chrome.

Seconded. I love my thermopop. I think my favorite feature is being able to change the screen rotation since I'm a lefty.

I'm the only person I know with an electric kettle, and I don't use it much since I sopped doing pourover coffee.

This looks great for my one person instance! Any way to unsub and block any unwanted communities?

I ended up getting a cheap VPS to use for Lemmy and Matrix for exactly that reason. They didn't want to play well with Cloudflare proxy, so the VPS was the easiest solution.

I'll listen to almost anything at least once. The only genre I actively avoid is current country. If I had to pick in genre, it would be early 2000's emo.

The most recent album I listened to all the way through was Wellerman - The Album by Nathan Evans. Put on Wellerman, the song, for my son. Ended up liking the whole album.

My most listened albums are probably a toss-up between Three Cheers for Sweet Revenge (My Chemical Romance), College Dropout (Kanye), Deloused in the Comatorium (The Mars Volta), or Toxicity (System of a Down).

Amd according to my "Your Spotify" instance, my most listened artist of the last year was Alt-J.

I tend to hyperfixate though, so I'll listen to the same album/genre for weeks/months, then not listen to it at all for months while I listen to something else.

Also, for anyone that selfhosts and uses Spotify, Your Spotify is nice to have for threads like this.
