“Awful”: Roku tests autoplaying ads loading before the home screen
  • The only reason I still use my roku is because it has sound leveling capabilities that is much better than anything else I have. I use my PC for just about everything but recently Sling stopped working on the PC or at least the DVR is directing me to download some app? Also Paramount doesn't handle 60fps content (sports) on the PC very well, it stutters a lot.

    Windows has sound leveling but I haven't had much luck with it when its really needed. My receiver is old and has only rudimentary sound leveling.

    Can someone help explain the difference between topics and feeds?
  • As a new user I latched onto the topics pretty quick and used it for navigating around. I will say despite the confusion the experience here is 10x better than on the lemmy instance I created an account on. I will work on Feeds over time as I navigate around and see content I like.

  • Can someone help explain the difference between topics and feeds?

    My understanding so far after a couple days is that joining a community gets it to show up on your front page but has no effect on it displaying under topics.

    In topics these are pre-built groups of communities (like multireddits). You can't modify them.

    Feeds are custom groups (like a multireddit) you can make that are just like topics except under your control. You can manage what communities are in the feed and show up under each category. You can create a feed that shows up as a "sub-feed" just like in topics. If you join a public feed it is like a user made topic where you can't change which communities show up in the feed.

    Am I understanding these correctly?
