Ah, changes already submitted for a merge. So working towards having this already.

After I did my research on all the devs of the different Android and iOS apps...I discovered the app I had been using, BaconReader, was basically the only one backed by an Ad company (also somehow tied to Tmobile/Sprint). The rest of them are basically independent developers. So after learning that...not sorry to see it go. If there was some redemption arc by reddit I'd use another app. Good riddance.

edit: here's the fosstodon thread I posted about my research: https://fosstodon.org/@thundergod97/110554562902608839

edit2: I loved using BaconReader....I was a premium user....but this information drastically changed my opinion of it.

Didn't give the billionaire my money so yeah it took like 10 minutes for me to get the rate exceeded message.

Bridge mode on the ISP router is what you want. Then it just passes through the internet connection to the internal router on the edge of your network. It's what I do with Comcast.

Running the PDS fork with the 5 second cooldown right now to do editing of all my posts and comments. Will wait a few days before deleting my account to make sure they stay edited.

I wasn't that active over the last 12 years, but it's still taking a while. 3.3k karma here
Honestly hoped that they wouldn't go full idiot....but sadly...spez is in charge. He's an insult to the idiot community.

edit: took all night but 4k+ posts edited. Waiting a bit and checking occasionally to ensure they stay edited before deleting.

PDS is a user script and it works fine so long as you use an edited version that adds a 5 second cooldown. Rate limiting is in effect so that is necessary to avoid that. The fork I'm using only has the timeout on editing...which is all I need it for. Currently working great

All I know is...I found a home here after leaving Reddit for good (as of yesterday my account is gone).

My initial move away was to Lemmy.world. But after finding some pretty glaring bugs including one that seemed to be a big security bug, I decided to delete my account there and try this out. I'm happy here. It's not perfect, but it's not broken as I found with my Lemmy experience.

I honestly don't care where people end up, so long as it's federated, open, and welcoming of everyone that have good intentions.

Lack of a response to what was happening. I drew up this research in the middle of the protests...from them I saw nothing (expected something posted on their subreddit, I removed their app after finding nothing from them). It seemed like a lack of care. Because of that, this post by them seems disingenuous to me, it's in response to the adoring fans posting to their subreddit. How many of those people posting love in their subreddit know about who the owners of the app are. Put two and two together and you know this is who Spez was talking about when he said some were just not willing to talk. I asked the same question of everyone who was unwilling to talk....why. I found answers for some...some had their words misrepresented by Spez....some hadn't said anything that I found...such as BaconReader.

New name....have been changing some names around recently. Pretty easy to spot my accounts with my avatar though.

@Eddie I know the kbin dev has been adjusting the federated backend to work better with mastodon. So I think it will all get better, it'll just take time.

I used Techno Tim's guide on how to do essentially the same thing with different tools: Cloudflare, Let's Encrypt, Traefik, and PiHole (for my DNS)

Doing what the OP (same result, just different software) or I posted and assigning certificates to secure your local services means you can avoid the HTTPS warning that major browsers will pop up on an unsecure (HTTP) connection. Instead of going to an internal dns name without a certificate or direct to the ip....you assign a wildcard certificate to a domain name you've setup on your local dns. You then access that service via the HTTPS protected Domain name, with no warning.

I think on PC it was tolerable at launch. Definitely not perfect, but not a hot mess either. On consoles, I think I would agree with you though.
I got my fill before the first major patch hit....100%ing it and playing all paths of the main story I could find.

Yeah I've been paying attention to KbinStyles. Already running a couple so far. That Subscribed button helps until we get something up top.

That's the consolidated feed I talk about. I have that defaulted already to my homepage...so instead of kbin.social I automatically go to kbin.social/sub. I was looking for something similar to https://kbin.social/u/the\_thunder\_god/subscriptions but in the main navigation bar always.

Same for me.
-It works well
-my dad (who has dementia) can use it
-It runs even when the net goes down (means my dad is happy)
-Can Transcode for our TV's with premiere (would rather not have to pay for that)

Have been thinking about Jellyfin...as I like the FOSS angle...and seems like it is gaining a lot of traction in the selfhost community. I host Emby Server on my Unraid server and our nVidia Shields play content great using the Emby app. Going to be investigating Jellyfin when I start to move the rest of my serivces off of Unraid.

@mike Same boat. I established an account over on Fosstodon during one of the Twitter exoduses. I like the UI more for kbin.social over Lemmy, so I think I'm here to stay. I tried out the federation between the two accounts, and figured out that mastodon really does twitter-like stuff really well. Kbin/Lemmy do reddit-like stuff really well. So I'm planning on just treating them like I treated Twitter and Reddit....as two separate services for different purposes with different UI's.

My only issue is that I chose a different name when I signed up on kbin.social/Lemmy to match other accounts I have (one of which I recently changed to be in line with the rest), and it's not what I have on Fosstodon, but I already moved once to a different instance (used to be on mastodon.social), I don't really want to change usernames on Fosstodon. Frustrating a bit for me, but I'll deal.

I've been playing on the Gamepass version (which was gifted to me by a friend). It's not spectacular performance on my 8th gen i7 and 6700K...but it's playable. I'm enjoying myself. I'm averaging around 25fps in game. Only setting I really modified is the Volumetric setting...set that to low. Playing at 1440p.
