  • Finally got some answers: https://lemmy.world/comment/485314 Admins looking into it

  • Liftoff! - šŸ’ A mobile client for Lemmy (Android/iOS/Windows/Linux)
  • Why not? More options is better at this point, I would think. Eventually the dust will probably settle around 5-10 "main" ones as happened with Reddit.

  • What does it mean when all your subscriptions on a single server (lemmy.world in this case) are stuck at ā€œsubscribe pendingā€?
  • Yea, fair, I'm just wondering if it's like a.. bug bug, or if it's something to do with like, configuring the number of federation workers, or doing something in PostgreSQL, either on our end or on Lemmyworld's end.

  • Lemmy.world improvements and issues
  • Got it. Sent you a DM with the full list.

  • Lemmy.world improvements and issues
  • Thanks, there are a number of them. Iā€™ll DM you a list. (For future reference, do you have to fix this manually in Postgres?)

  • Communities that have been broken due to the bug regarding remote moderators are still unusable from outside lemmy.world, breaking federation: https://lemmy.world/post/209377

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • Oh, haha. No, it gets 60-80 FPS with occasional peaks at 100+ at 5120x2160 :-), so I'm sure it would run far better at 1080P!

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • I notice improved performance with that off, but only by using the Metal FPS overlay and observing that it drops from like 100+ to ~60 FPS. It's not really noticeable on a 60hz monitor either way.

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • Wow, I'm surprised it's that much of a difference. What resolution are you running at?

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • Yeah I wouldn't expect the difference between 12 and 24 CPU cores or whatever it is would be significant here. But Apple also doesn't advertise the clock speeds and such anymore so it's hard to reason about the single-core performance difference, if any at all. Maybe a browse through Geekbench results could shed some light. Unfortunately I don't have an M2 Max machine around to test it, but I could give it a spin on my M1 Max MBP if that's helpful to you.

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • Just gave it a spin. I would call it extremely playable, getting 45 to 55 FPS running at highest settings (Very High) and I play at a pretty intensive resolution of 5120x2160, ultra wide bigger than 4K. So I'm quite happy with the performance.

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • Ditto, I have a pretty sizable steam library mostly of strategy and simulation games, so happy to post experiences with e.g. Paradox games, Tropico, Frostpunk, etc

  • M1 max vs M2 max gaming performance?
  • I havenā€™t found anything definitive. I do have both an M1 Max MacBook Pro and a brand new M2 Ultra Mac Studio so I am happy to post some results with whatever title. I know itā€™s not 1:1 but given that an M2 Ultra is basically a ā€œdouble M2 Maxā€, taking half the framerate of that may be a proxy for M2 notebook performance.

    At any rate I believe Crossover + Rosetta is going to be too much of a bottleneck to see significant gains. Iā€™ve noticed for example, Tropico 6, when running under Metal on my M1 Max MBP, gets a smooth 70-75 FPS playing on Ultra at 2560x1600. This is Rosetta running a macOS x86 and Metal binary however. Trying the Windows version under Crossover, it drops down to 30-35 FPS playing on Medium. So while playable, even if you added a lot more M2 horsepower, I suspect the translation layers would eat a large part of that gain.
