In this case, I have a theory. I remember a month ago people were posting a lot on Reddit and the !reddit@lemmy.ml community was extremely active. It was like group therapy for refugees. But now the new reality is setting in and people are actually having real and meaningful conversations, which means more lurkers.

So it doesn’t mean that active users are down per se, it’s just that it’s stabilised because people are mostly over Reddit.

As somehow who lost a close one to cancer, quit now and not later. The more you wait, the greater the chances you’ll get cancer. Don’t wait and regret it.

I’m curious, why are you sick of Manjaro? I’ve been use it for 2 years and it’s been smooth sailing. Genuinely just curious.

Maybe I’m old school and in my late 30s, but I like linear games, they have good stories and aren’t too long. But it helps that I’m a patient gamer, so I don’t buy AAA titles at ridiculous prices.

For example, I bought Mafia Definitive Edition when it came out (one of the rare times I’ve done that, but it wasn’t $70) and I thought it was well worth the money, even if the story is a bit shorter than modern standards.

I’m all about quality over quatity. Give me a good story every day, don’t force me to do side quests that have nothing to do with the main story (I’m looking at you, Assassin’s Creed).

Worse. Paradoxically, it encourages piracy.

So much this. The leader on top is the one who instills the corporate culture. In this case, the engineers have no say in the matter. They need to do what they’re told.

Unfortunately, Discord can’t be replaced right now. All my gaming friends are using it and I don’t see any FOSS software that can replace it right now.

I think a static page page explaining to users that the server is being upgraded would be best.

Just a regular Sennheiser HD 569. I don’t like gaming headphones.

I second this. It sounds that you want a rolling release distro. Suse Tumbleweed is also a good choice.

Woohoo! I hope a lot of FOSS project have their own Lemmy/Kbin instance. Reddit, a capitalist platform, is no place for them.
