I think this is the thing that made me stay on Lemmy and don't look back on Reddit. I'd imagine that the federation is not a totally new concept, but since i discovered it i'm feeling just like when i discovered the internet when i was 5 years old, i posted more here in the last 5 days than what i used to post on reddit in a year.

Third week? Damn, i sweared i joined only two weeks ago

I'm sorry if this isn't the right place, but can someone explain to me how Linux gives more liberty than Windows and why Linux is objectively better than Windows? I want to switch to Linux but i didn't find any good reason or incentive to abandon Windows

I've tried to use Linux Mint and i liked the experience, but since i'm more of a casual user, i came back to Windows 10, mainly because i just use my pc for browsing, watching YouTube and gaming, using Vegas and Visual Studio Code occasionally.

The whole fediverse thing is what really takes me back to my first days on the internet, because after some years, the way the internet works in general became common knowledge, so nothing felt new, or the things that were really new, were actually just stupid concepts (Take for example NFTs that rised in popularity last year, people said it would change the future and the way the internet works, but it actually was just a dumb pyramid scheme and it led to nothing, even to this day i have no idea how it works.)

But the federation is a genuinely interesting system that is different from everything i've seen in the past years. The concept of anyone hosting conglomerates of communities in their own house or even in a dedicated server, while all those instances communicate with eachother is mind boggling for me, and the fact that none of this is owned by a company truly reinforces the feeling of community. The fediverse feels like a part of the internet that is yet to be explored, and while i don't understand it completely, there's still much to learn and discover. Browsing through Lemmy doesn't feel just like a daily dopamine rush activity just like Reddit, it genuinely feels like i'm interacting, contributing and being part of it, something i haven't felt for a long time tbh.

Forgot cool robots

I guess the mushrooms are finally kicking in

Feels good to be part of the growth of a community!

Y'know i'd actually listen to this. Especially how sometimes media uses horror in a really smart way that even gives the viewer a psychological pressure and a genuine feeling of fear, it really seems like an intersting topic

The Dark Souls series, Halo and especially Destiny. Bungie has an incredible ability to create immersive skyboxes imo.

i think one of the best momments for me was way back in 2017 when i was making my first playthrough on the neutral route. I had little to almost no computer knowledge back then so when flowey simply crashed my game i got so scared that i didn't touch my save for at least an entire day

From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh, it disgusted me. I craved the strength and certainty of steel. I aspired to the purity of the Blessed Machine.

Your kind cling to your flesh, as if it will not decay and fail you. One day the crude biomass that you call a temple will wither, and you will beg my kind to save you. But I am already saved, for the Machine is immortal…

...even in death I serve the Omnissiah.

For the past years i had many favorite ones buy nowadays my favorite is Bring it in, Guys! and Last Goodbye

The Leitmotifs and the guitar from it always makes me shed a tear :')

"Yeah but the thing is the Orks actually power everything with their imagination, but in reality none of their equipment they use actually works, and its actually just a bunch of metal and parts put together, but everyone believes that it works, and so it works, and they also have big campaigns of war they call "Waagh!" where they..."

I sometimes fantasize about explaining the entire 40k lore in a presentation to my classroom lol

Reminds me of the reddit rap on r/Teenagers
