@greypilgrim @Cheeseness That might be a task for a more generalized gaming news site I think, rather than just one developer taking the task on.
@Cheeseness I don't know if it would be useful, but I'm all for people having their own instances. That's the whole reason I use this setup for posting thoughts, because I can run a server all on my own.
@requiem It's certainly noisier than it's been in awhile. A lot of accounts that had tapered off posting are showing back up again on my feeds. But getting over 100 posts per day now where it used to be under 40.
@best_doll Sure. Once Switch and Playstation 5 can post videos and screenshots to Pleroma, I'll stop using Twitter for the last thing I use it for. ;)
@pro At the moment I really only use it for posting screenshots from closed platforms. I just went back for and looked at it for a bit and it was a miserable experience full of promoted content, suggestions, and other things pushing you towards things they wanted you to look at. I counted about 15 of their content to 4 from people I followed.
@gamingonlinux I've been here, of course I'm thinking about using Twitter more now. ;)
@Zennblack It's not just Shanghai, it's many different places in China right now. Shanghai's just the one with more people with foreign contacts than most of the other places in China that are locked down right now. It's probably even worse in those areas. The reason we can't care as much about that though is there's even less chance for a positive outcome with how tight the controls over China are. I have equal concern for all those stuck under the CCP, like Hong Kong and Shanghai, as Ukraine and Taiwan, but there's still reasonable hope with Ukraine and Taiwan, and there's very little hope left for Hong Kong, Shanghai, and the rest of China.
@union They were hoping to contain the thrashing the country did as it was dying off... now they don't know what will be wrecked as it happens.
@union If Zelensky was doing what the west wanted, Russia would already have most of the country and Ukraine would be in guerilla warfare tying Russia down like Afghanistan in the 80's, and holding it there until its death throes from demographic collapse and all of their technical staff dying off because they stopped educating them long enough ago that the trained engineers on all of their military equipment are hitting the life expectancy age for the country. Ukraine holding them off wasn't what the west wanted or expected.
@felix @requiem How about... You can go in at any point, make the post as long or as short as you want, edit it as much as you want... But once per day it takes the post you're working on and shows it to the rest of the users who have subscribed to one of the tags in the post. Then if someone wants to reply, they can add a reply to their post, which will then get exposed to them the next day. Basically, slowing down the conversation and reducing engagement costs.
@Moon Much better to get North Dakota, Pennsylvania, Alaska, and Texas oil. Too bad it's impossible to completely avoid Iranian/Saudi/Russian oil.
@gamingonlinux That's too bad. If it wasn't for the Intel chipset and the mediocre linux support, the GPD Win 3 is actually a nice looking handheld that I would have considered getting for its more compact size. The pocket with the KVM would have been useful too.
Recently, we pointed out that GPD were taking YouTubers content on Steam Decks and putting it on their own channel, with no credit. (https://twitter.com/gamingonlinux/status/1509896729633697801)
Here's GPD's answer:

I think it's a bit like this in China as well, though China has many more prosperous regions, many high tier cities, and even more people in crippling poverty in the countryside.

@tk They look nicer than Soviet era Stack-a-prole buildings at least, but probably aren't that pleasant to live in.
