It depends on the game. Like if it’s an online only game, then of course that makes sense. But a single player game, or even a game with a single player mode requiring always online is and will always be dumb.

Diablo 4 not being designed for offline solo play as well (like D2 and I think even D3 was) is annoying though.

It’ll normalize a bit and you’ll start seeing more diverse content. Some will quit reddit cold turkey, some will do what i do and hop back and forth, some will just go back and deal. I like it here though so im sticking around at least

I haven’t completely left, and to be honest the only way I’d completely leave is if the niche communities I cared about died (or were active here). That being said I’ve noticed my reddit usage has plummeted over the last week. I used to basically live on that dumb site and now I only check it maybe once or twice a day for a couple minutes

lemmy.ml probably won’t because it’s kind of the de-facto default instance where the devs can communicate to everyone. You’re best bet is to create an account on an instance that blocks lemmygrad (like Beehaw that was mentioned, i’m sure others do as well)

Is it possible to message on mastodon and peertube with lemmy (or is it only through kbin currently)? I was trying to figure out how that worked but had some difficulty

This is a cop out answer. I tried Jerboa but wasn’t a big fan. That may change in the future. But I feel currently the best way to experience Lemmy on your phone is to do the following:

1. Install the firefox app from the app store
2. Go to your Lemmy instance on firefox
3. press the 3 dots (where you can view bookmarks, history, etc) and click on “Add to Home screen”

When you click on the Lemmy icon that’s added to your home screen on your phone, it will open up the Lemmy web app (seperate from the firefox browser). It works super nice on mobile from my experience so far, and has a sleek design.
