I feel like the only people who actually care are the type who wrap their entire personality around which OS they use

Dredge! I played it entirely on Steam Deck, and it was a great, relaxing, intriguing experience. Would recommend

I wouldn’t say so. Admins run the site, moderators run communities. This happens to be a community with an admin as a mod.

Fedora for coders

And Manjaro for no one. The distro is run by clowns

Magnesium Citrate does not fuck around. I used it once when constipated and it cleared me out good.

I also barely slept that night and had to take the following day off work, because i absolutely could not stop shitting for almost 24 hours

The moment I jumped ship from there was when someone made an erection joke in response to Trump being indicted again, and the replies were all admonishing about how it’s insensitive toward people who are uncomfortable with sex.

God, that feeling when you first step out of the sewers is a core memory for me. Oblivion was my first TES game, I played that shit until my PS3 save inevitably got corrupted

I signed up for beehaw initially, got in, but wasn’t a fan of some of their rules and how they police speech in their community.

All good, I can still view and participate in their comments, but Lemmy.world had more of the vibe i was looking for

Honestly, Linux is Linux. Once you’re comfortable enough, that’s really all that differentiates distros between each other. It’s just been the closest experience I’ve had to “it just works” when it comes to Linux desktop.

I should also shout out that Fedora tends to embrace existing standards rather than make their own (cough Cannonical cough Snap). I’m also a big fan of some Fedora projects, particularly Fedora Silverblue

I wish Valve would release a community version of SteamOS 3.X so we could load it on 3rd party hardware

kbin.social still isn’t federating, right? I wasn’t able to access communities @kbin.social from Lemmy

Kbin.social is going through some tough times handling the load right now, so federating a bit hard due to the cloud flare DDOS protection.

It should smooth out, then you’ll be able to see the same posts

Fedora is pretty cutting edge (updating package versions every 6 months), while still being rock solid. The release upgrade is also the most reliable one I’ve had to deal with - I successfully upgraded an ancient install by 10 versions once.

It was very useful for queries along the lines of “which x is the best”, “which x to buy”, etc. You can guarantee that there was a discussion about pretty much anything on Reddit

Lemmy.ml is the main lemmy instance, run by the lemmy developers. Lemmy developers happen to also be tankies, who deny genocides/atrocities committed by communist states and support authoritarian communism.

Because Tankies are no better than conservative reactionaries - they don’t have any real ideology besides being against whatever the West supports.

I fully agree - there’s no excuse why the DB should be falling over when I’ve seen a single postgres instance (with a read replica, granted) handle >1M users just fine.

Unfortunately my SQL skills haven’t improved since my DB class in university, so I won’t be much help. I’ll be keeping an eye on the repo of course, and I can give some consulting/guidance or even open some PRs myself when they decide to implement horizontal scaling.
