Tom Clancy's Division 2.

It is a 1-to-1 map of washington DC, and I love roaming around in it. It is like virtual tourism, in a dense post apocalyptic environment, all co-op with random people.

I'm happy with with mid-range Motorola with mid-range expectations. $300 androids are the best.

Growth for the sake of growth is the ideology of a cancer cell.

I'm a Relay user. Getting used to Jerboa, Jerboa is fine. Will try Boost as well. There isn't a swipey app like Relay right now though. Hope dbrady makes his mind up about what Relay for Reddit is doing, then make a Lemmy version.

I use Astonishing Comic reader for reading comics. The comics come from Library Genesis, in.cbr or .cbz formats. Gathering those is quite annoying.

The concept of seasons will also get super fucked. Already feeling it in North-East India - weather trends are not very predictable any more.

wsl is great for its uses, but I wouldn't consider it as running linux. Hardware support and privacy are missing when you use wsl, as it just translates linux system calls to windows ones.

My AMD graphics card had atrocious driver support in Windows, and every time windows forced the half-yearly big update on me, my PC would go into a BSOD loop and I would not be able to run windows. It was becoming a massive annoyance and a humongous time waster.

So I switched to Linux Mint. No hardware problems at all. With the graphics card working, I played a video game that literally worked better in Linux than Windows.

Then I bought a new laptop and dual booted different distributions. But every time I log into Windows after doing something in Linux (Fedora KDE spin), my windows clock would get messed up. There are professional softwares I have to use that only work on Windows, so completely switching to linux was not an option, and windows boots up Much faster than linux.

So when I needed some space for an online multiplayer game, I got rid of the dual boot. Now I run everything using WSL2.

Windows remains the default platform for small developer teams, and large video games. So it takes a large incovenience to abandon it. And just a little bit of friction is enough to make me switch back to windows. Sorry if I disappointed you guys.

It's the community that makes reddit what it is. Lemmy cannot become reddit unless the community moves. The community will move if we make high effort content here.

I have switched from Relay for reddit to Jerboa for lemmy. But Jerboa still opens too much in browser, and I'm missing my mix of stuff. I could waste couple hours on reddit just consuming. Here, I run out of stuff in half an hour.

Also, the communities for the games I play are still over in reddit. Movie discussion threads are still on reddit. There are enough normies there that they will stick to reddit even after the protests. I can move my scrolling to Lemmy, that is my plan, but occasional visits to a few select places on reddit, will continue to happen.
