I heard it’s pretty common for lemmy users to have accounts across multiple instances. I have a couple as well “just in case” but the Beehaw community is pretty good and I’m just on it all the time and have barely ventured out on my other accounts.

We’ll see what the future holds for federation but as long as your chosen instance has high quality and active…activity then you should be good.

Have a glass of water at the ready. It always helps to soothe my nerves and if I get stuck on answering a question, taking a sip gives me time to think things through. It’s also practical because if you’re doing most of the talking you’ll end up with a dry mouth and no one wants to croak during an interview. All this applies for both video call interviews or on site, in which case ask for a glass of water before you start the interview.

Looks like Beehaw was indeed the perfect fit and best instance to join. Though it is troubling how many shits like this have joined the Fediverse.

Same here. I think Memmy has improved drastically over the last week or so. Well done to the dev(s?), it’s become my daily driver.

KOTOR spoiler

I don’t think there’s one. Still, I find it a bit funny thinking of myself and my partner sitting next to each other, each on our own gaming PC, once we’re old (or should I say older, yikes the 90s really were almost 30 years ago…)

Happy to see the beehive growing!

Absolutely agree. WhatsApp is the default in my country and all across Europe. For instance, I was on holiday earlier this month and the hotel I was staying in just contacted me through WhatsApp with check-in info. They hadn’t replied to earlier emails but defaulted straight to WhatsApp for communication. It would be a nightmare to move away from it at this point. At least it still doesn’t feel like a Meta app.

That’s amazing! I am so happy to see space posts here in the Fediverse.

I didn’t have any strong feeling about Steam but I do have to say the desktop performance is snappier.

Most lemmy.ml communities show up as “pending” long after hitting subscribe but I am able to get them to show up in my feed anyway. Is that your issue?

Oh my…I feel stupid. Was constantly switching between the app and the browser when I wanted to look for something specific and to subscribe!

With the caveat that I haven’t seen the trailer yet, I heard this is a first person game and initial feeling was slightly disappointed because I do prefer third person plus I want to see my Avatar dammit. But a chance to play in Pandora? Will definitely keep an eye on it.

Don’t crucify me but I’ve tried HZD and did not like it. I also tried God of War (2018) and I didn’t get very far. Maybe I was not in the right headspace but both of them felt the same to me like a game forcefully trying to make me feel something but I could not connect to either.

KOTOR and KOTOR 2, Mass Effect (Vigil, Leaving Earth, An End Once and For All), Hogwarts Legacy (very reminiscent of the movie scores but its own thing)

I’m hopeful Ninja Theory maintained, if not upped, the quality with Hellblade II. What an incredible experience the first game was. It was so impactful.

It Takes Two, Unravel 2, Divinity: Original Sin, Divinity: Original Sin 2. They’re the only split screen games I’ve played to be perfectly honest but they’re all fantastic.

I don’t particularly like the game, but the final mission in Mass Effect: Andromeda was wonderful and made me smile. It was gorgeous, great music, and gave me an adrenaline rush.

I love DAI but its open world is exhausting. DA2 gets even more hate yet I love it to bits! In a way DA2 is even more comforting/relaxing because of the rushed development leading to recycles environments. Just makes me focus on getting from one story beat to the next without wasting time finding my way out in a large open world.

I haven’t played Wasteland but I’ve played DOS2 and the original DOS so many times! Love them both, and DOS2 is the best game I’ve played in terms of build (I’m prone to going full Aerotheurge on most playthroughs). You should definitely give BioWare games a try. They’re more casual compared to DOS but the world building, characters and narrative are better than DOS.

P.S. I’ve never played Baldur’s Gate but I’m looking forward to Baldur’s Gate 3!
