Communities generally spawn on whatever general purpose instance, and I'm fine with it because the only other option is usually nothing at all. Maintaining an instance takes hard work and money.

Sometimes there is enough will to spawn a specific instance. For example, rimmers have their own mbin instance. That's the exception, though.

The only encouraging thing I can say here is Be the change you wish to see. If you want an instance to exist, run it yourself!

Based on personal experience, I'm a firm believer in that best way to learn and get good at something is to just do it and keep doing it.

So: download godot or such and try to make stuff. You'll figure it out as you go.

wow, S P A R K L Y

Some people don't know better, others don't care.

Can they just make a bot that will play my games and watch my movies for me already? I'm tired of all this inconvenience.

No need to pay

I didn't say anything about paying. It's free in both meanings of the word.

It's also cross-platform and -browser and better than builtin ones.

Bitwarden is self-hostable and foss, with some unofficial software already out there. Not much opportunity for the company to entrap customers if it went evil.

IMO, for most people it's best to just send them to register at bitwarden. It's less hassle so they might actually follow through, while being infinitely better than what they were doing before.

In lemmy, password length is capped to 60. Weak.

The exact same picture, but not ai generated

That weird ass explanation with switches and "one of the most important numbers" still sounds absolutely clueless.

Where'd you buy the game from? On steam it's the same as usual, except you need to go to settings and enable compatibility for "unsupported" games before it lets you install it.
