We're no better here. Lemmy has its own brand of cringe.

Kid nearly lopped an arm off another kid with a samurai sword. Guess he was bullied and he lost his shit one day. Kid with the sword got help, and the kid who got cut didn't lose an arm.
If I lived in a country with lax gun control, this would have been a much different situation.
Wildly irrelevant to the post, but man that was a good read. Carry on.
No requests. Just like to say you're a good bloke for wanting to lift others when you're down. God speed mate
I've seen Confederate flags flying off the backs of pick up trucks on the west coast of Canada... Amazing how stupid people can be
1080p and 4k isn't really a fair comparison for great earbuds and shit earbuds in my opinion. The comparison there is like 4k and 480p. There is a massive difference between the 2. I have had $30 earbuds that you couldn't listen to a podcast on, and I currently have $250+ Bose earbuds that are fucking amazing for just about everything.
Unless of course you're saying that these earbuds are in fact "1080p" quality. In which case, fair point. I have yet to see someone who's actually used these and commented on the sound quality though. What I've seen from fairphone products is they are consumer friendly at the expense of quality.
Agree. The amount of people doom saying, massively blowing things out of proportion, or having victim complexes is out of control. If you got all your news from Lemmy, you'd think society as we know it is about to collapse.. or at least American society.
Reddit has a lot of downfalls, but at least it was diverse and the memes were better.
Here's my highly specific (hypocritical) advice:
Don't take advice from Reddit or Lemmy on any important matter. You don't know these people, and they don't know you. Some people have good ideas. Most don't. The ability to think for yourself and determine what's best for you is the best skill you can have. A review from Lemmy or Reddit on a product is fine. Life advice from internet strangers is almost always garbage.
Here's some more highly specific meta advice: Change your socks every day. What the fuck people..
For whatever it's worth, and whoever reads this, I've had extensive buffering issues with Vanced/Revanced for months. Recently purged the MicroG and vanced software, and reinstalled the Revanced Extended, and it works flawlessly!
The grass is not greener on the other side. The grass is greener where you water it.
Tell us how you really feel, I feel like you're holding back.
I'm scared of dipping my toes in this batshit crazy thread, but why is supporting genocide a win-win for Canadians?
Wikipedia rabbit holes
Just my 2 cents, but those are devs that should be supported if possible.
I did. Once sync was out it was a pretty easy transition. I just wanted an app to scroll mindlessly for a couple minutes a day, and Lemmy does the job. The content stream is a lot slower, but for low usage users like myself, it's fine.
That said, from what I've gleaned from other threads, it still seems like most people still use Reddit in some capacity.

Frostpunk. That game gave me anxiety with the tough choices sometimes.
.... And there's no place like home
I'm getting whiplash from your logic. You just accused another user of acting like you said tencent had larian on a leash, which we can all agree is not true. Then you go on to say Larian is going to lose its soul when tencent approaches them with a gacha game, as if larian would take them up on this like Tencent has any say in what Larian does.
Also, Hasbro isn't selling DnD. Tencent is attempting to buy adaptation rights to the DnD IP, which may not even be true. By all accounts, WotC is the most profitable division of Hasbro. Sounds like you read another headline and didn't read the article...
Thanks for capitalizing that B
Agreed. 2.6 in my location. PNW
You can play Nintendo games on PC, with the added bonus of not giving money to that ghoulish company.
I played BotW and TotK on my PC, and let me tell you friend, with the increased frame rate, and the ability to run reshade, it looks and feels better than ever.
After reading your replies, I think my answer to your "how do you deal with loneliness?" is: you don't. You don't sound like you're willing to do literally anything other than complain. You sound like you want a women to fuck you but don't want to bring anything to the table. Not one ioda of effort spent on another living creature.
I think the people that met their partners playing video games have more to offer than just playing video games once they actually meet. They are probably nice people who make some amount of effort to be with someone.
My advice: find a sex worker, if scrounging up a few hundred dollars and driving isn't too much effort for you.
Sorry if this is harsh, but Jesus Christ man, you have a pathetic mentality. Sometimes you have to do something else other than playing video games as a grown ass adult. Being lonely sucks, and I feel for your situation, but you gotta actually do something about it.
At least among my circle, diablo 4 is a shitty game.
My dad likes to tinker with stuff, and he's a pretty mechanically inclined guy.
He pulled an old shitty lawnmower out of a scrap metal bin, and made a motorized bar stool. The bloody thing rips across his shop at like 20km/h!
I don't know where I was going with that, but scrap metal bins are a gold mine for free shit to tinker with. Good luck brother
Username checks out.
Agreed. Lemmy is much worse.
That's funny, it's the opposite for me. Got into Satisfactory, loved it. Buddy bought me factorio, and now Satisfactory seems like an extremely feature-neutered version of Factorio.
Isn't this stuff Trump also wants?
I live in the PNW of Canada. It's expensive, but I love it here and wouldn't move unless I absolutely had to.
Username Spez_
Of course it's going to be a shit take.
Not much these days
Also listen to that other dude in this thread that mentioned dental hygiene. That's bangin' advice.
Maybe an unpopular opinion but I liked DOS2 more than BG3. Not to say I don't love BG3, but I love DOS2
The point stands. Vote with your wallet.
The Phalanx
Maybe they can see you 👀
I, too, have been lulled to sleep at night with my headset on by the sounds of my Factorio factory running
Thanks for the candid response. I appreciate the honest discussion.
Fully left Reddit. Hate that they killed Sync so bounced. Don't miss it at all.
The flip side is Lemmy is meh. Every damn post is Linux shilling. We get it. Lemmy users like Linux. At least Sync works on this site.
Ultimately, I guess I just don't care about either site. I just want something to mindlessly browse for a few minutes every day when I'm shitting, and Lemmy is fine.
