what messaging apps do you use?

  • I use Cinny. It's a desktop app for Matrix.

    •
    GOG alternatives

  • Never heard of itch.io. I like how it has a collection of open source games. I have bookmarked it. Thanks.

    •
    What are peoples thoughts on games requiring always online? How does it affect your enjoyment of those games?

  • An always online requirement is just another form of DRM. If a game has DRM, I simply don't buy it.

    •
    Best backup for Linux?

  • I just use rsync to backup my home folder to my NAS.

    •
    Best native Linux games?

  • Right now I'm really getting into old school games or games that have the old school look. Here's a few which have native Linux support:

    • Stardew Valley
    • Broforce
    • Carrion
    • Dusk
    • FTL: Faster Than Light
    • Huntdown

    Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?

  • What you're describing is just another Reddit. Where, eventually, a few select individuals with all the power make the wrong decisions and this entire disaster happens all over again.

    Lemmy (and the fediverse) is a chance to change all that. It brings power back to the people, to the community.

    Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?

  • I love how certain problems like this only come to light once a certain amount of activity is reached. It wasn't much of a problem before the Reddit migration when this place was a lot less active. New posts slowly dripped in... but now it's a constant flow.

    •
    lay it all bare, show me yalls fetch

  • It's a terminal program called neofetch. Some of the other screenshots use a similar program called pfetch.

    •
    lay it all bare, show me yalls fetch

  • Damn... Those monitors.

    Well here is mine:

    • Redditors, how do you like Lemmy?

  • I actually see this as a strength/advantage. There is no single point that can be controlled. All the more harder for the greedy to rule over the entire fediverse.

    •
    How do you older Lemmy users feel about the large influx of reddit users?

  • I've been using Lemmy for less than a year so I'm not exactly a veteran user. Though, I've been here before all this Reddit drama happened.

    I'm just glad to have all this activity and see previously inactive communities spring to life.

    Traefik, Caddy, Nginx, etc. what is your reverse proxy of choice, and why?

  • I made the switch from NGINX to Caddy. For me, configuring Caddy is much more simple than configuring NGINX. Also Caddy automatically obtains and renews SSL certificates.

    So, Caddy's simplicity is what won me over. I don't care about speed since I'm the only user of my self-hosted services.

    What's everyone's thoughts on split or tented keyboards?

  • I suggest the Moonlander by ZSA. It checks all the boxes for me:

    • Ortholinear
    • Fully programmable keys
    • Programmable RGB lighting
    • Hot-swappable keys (the keys are not soldered onto the board, allowing you to change the keyswitches)
    • Built-in wrist support (can be detached or folded to hide it)

    I've been happily using the Moonlander for over a year and can't see myself going back to a normal keyboard.
