I think in that regard, Lemmy is a forum software just like vBulletin or Discourse is. However, I would really like to see a flat forum with federation.

Yeah, it works with AMD as well.

I mean, I did read what they wrote. Remote desktop to iOS. Sending the desktop of the computer, to an iOS device. Nobody calls the home screen of a phone a “desktop”.

I, don’t think that’s what they meant, but I could be wrong.

Remote desktop to iOS: Not sure this is possible even on Windows, I use remmina for remote desktop, it supports several ways of connecting to the other device so maybe see if it works for you.

What? This is absolutely possible, and it seems like OP is already doing so from Windows. Remmina is also, as far as I’m aware, a client app, not a server. I would personally recommend Sunshine, with Moonlight as the iOS client, but that’s more geared towards gaming. xrdp would be my recommendation if OP is using the built in Microsoft Remote Desktop Protocol currently, as that will continue to work with whichever iOS client they are already using. Otherwise, if they’re using VNC currently, I would go with TightVNC as there are dozens, if not more, iOS clients.

Who?

Could I get a link?

skill issue ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

It does for me, but I have auditory processing issues so your mileage may vary. Discord also just has a lot of issues, like audio sources messing up, or calls cutting completely for up to ten seconds for no discernible reason.

But even a standard voice server is better quality than a phone.

It really isn’t in my experiences, but maybe it’s different in Australia? As well, other services like Telegram or Signal have way better quality too. Discord just kinda sucks.

I mean yea, absolutely, but HD Voice can do 128kbps and comparatively that’s better than Discord. The other person’s comment seemed a bit snarky so I wanted to refute their assertion.

Maybe if you pay for Nitro. Without it, the standard call quality is only 96kbps. Meanwhile VoLTE/VoNR and HD Voice have made mobile phone calls typically equal or higher quality. If you only ever call corporate, business or government services, those are typically still narrowband though, so you’re not going to notice.

Bazzite on GNOME? Rebasing from GNOME to KDE causes so many headaches. Ask me how I know (yes I’m aware they tell you not too).

Hell, even I can smell that there’s been a million other dogs through there, I can’t even imagine what it’s like with a way more sensitive snout!

It doesn’t even have to be something with subscriptions. Hardware drivers are (usually) freeware too for example. AMD is an unusual exception to that being open source. Then you have IK Multimedia who include a license key for their drivers and charge $50 to transfer it, and won’t even let the new owner of a product pay that if they bought it second-hand. Ask me how I know.

Yeah it’s definitely an interesting and unique design, so it doesn’t exactly surprise me that it costs AU$525. Disability tax is kind of a fact of life honestly, between products being for a smaller niche of the community, and the knowledge that insurance of some sort is often paying for it. Comparatively though, Microsoft’s Adaptive Controller starts at only AU$130, but that isn’t really a full controller OOTB. You need at least a couple of joysticks, and a few more buttons, which cost almost as much as the controller again each, pushing up towards the cost of the Byowave device. However, it’s a fully extensible platform using simple 3.5mm TS and TRS for buttons, analogue triggers and sticks. Plus two USB-A inputs for joysticks as well. This allows for much more specialised inputs such as Sip and Puff switches, but these start at US$325 (AU$515).

I guess my point is that it’s not great, but it’s not terrible either for certain niches.

Oh awesome! I looked into rolling my own image to combine Aurora-DX with Bazzite about a month or so ago, but I’ve been really busy since and hadn’t made much of a start. This is really exciting to see, will rebase over on my desktop as soon as NVIDIA gets support.

I think they were maybe speaking to the peer-to-peer “hosting” part of peertube. If not enough people are contributing to bandwidth, then more falls back to the server, increasing the cost to run it.

1. Not a dude, don’t call me that.
2. I haven’t replied to you before now.
3. I never said you were wrong about smartphone usage. You’re acting like it’s a hot take that everyone has a smartphone, as if people that have them can’t/won’t own a PC.
4. Announcing you’re drunk like this is kinda sad friend.
5. If you are, maybe just stop replying in random threads acting like a jerk?

Others have said the same, but why do you believe these things are mutually exclusive? Like yes, everyone has a computer in their pocket, but why does that prevent them from having a desktop, or a laptop, or a tablet? There are 1.75 Billion PC gamers as of 2020, though that includes laptop (and assumedly Steam Deck and associated handheld) users as well. Desktops are still incredibly common and popular computing devices, they aren’t going anywhere anytime soon. Let alone that laptops are incredibly common too. I genuinely don’t know anyone in my circles that doesn’t have a laptop, a desktop, or both.
