I agree. I'm still hoping some subreddits will move over to Lemmy, but I'm really enjoying Lemmy anyhow. The Lemmy communities seem generally really positive so far and there is enough content for me to enjoy. It even helps with reducing my time lost on the internet while still providing me with the community and information-influx that I enjoy. Quality over quantity. I also really love the idea of the technical parts: federated, open source and self-hostable.

Complete dealbreaker for me. You'll never actually own games with such models, as you are completely dependand on the publisher. Once they pull the plug, you can't play the game you paid for. Server probleem? Sorry, you can't play right now. Traveling? Sorry, can't play.

It is also generally bad for modding and the overall user experience. These kind of games often have DRM that don't allow for modding

Free and Open Source software. I don't mean anything specific, but if you use/need software it doesn't hurt to search if there are any FOSS solutions available that suit your needs. If it does, you might save a couple of bucks. If it doesn't you can still use your proprietary solution anyway.

Thank you for sharing LibreTube! It's exactly what I was looking for!

I was starting to like NewPipe more since Revanced borked on my phone. However, it doesn't load child comments and the UI could use an update. LibreTube seems to improve on those exact issues!

Same for me and I have to say, I'm really liking it here so far! The community is of course smaller, but it's still large enough to be engaging and the users are nice so far.

You might want to keep an eye on OpenGoal. It's a decompilation of the original engine. This allows you to run Jak 1 natively, and they're working on porting Jak 2 as well. This can also result in higher performance, better graphics and more :)

FreeTube is what you're looking for. LibreTube, Newpipe and FreeTube can import/export each-others subscriptions too

Good to hear! I actually still haven't really played it, although I set it up on my system. I got the urge to play more platforms, including Jak, after I finally beat one of my favorite childhood games, Rayman 2 The Great Escape, a few months ago.

Yes. You could somewhat see it as a combination between e-mail and Reddit.

When you want to send an e-mail to me, it doesn't matter what e-mail provider you or I use. I could be using username@outlook.com and you could be using username@gmail.com or even some self-hosted, custom instance like user@name.com. It doesn't matter, all those accounts and e-mail servers can interact with each other.

Similarly with Lemmy, you can subscribe and interact with communities on other instances with your Beehaw account. They are compatible with each other. But instead of e-mail data, they exchange Lemmy data. Anyone can join an excising Lemmy instance/server or even host their own instance if they wanted too.

What about games like Half Life or Metro? I don't like most mutiplayer shooters either, but storydriven singleplayer games can be great imo

No, I don't and I haven't felt the need to buy one either. For the few times that I do need a car I'm lucky enough to have family living close by that is always happy to let me use their cars. But even if I didn't have family living close-by renting a car a few times a year is probably way cheaper in my case than buying and maintaining my own car. Owning a car does have some advantages, but in my case I think the disadvantages outweigh the advantages. Disadvantages are things like: Extra costs for buying the car, maintenance, parking and insurance. Taking up extra space in a crowded city and bad for my health if I get too much used too it.

I would buy one if I really needed one for a job, but so far I really don't need it (and I could always still buy a car if I do need it more often).

I get 90%+ of my trips around by walking and biking, occasionally by public transport and only a few times per year I need a car. Living in the Netherlands.

Valheim. There is so much to do, explore and discover! I play VH either with friends or solo. We've never finished all bosses yet and are currently less active, but we often get very active in bursts of time. I can get lost for HOURS in this game, completely forgetting the time and world around me. Then I notice I've played for 6 hours straight and mostly gathered some wood and improved my house a bit. I never gets boring though.

Don't Starve. I've spend a lot of time in this game and I think I've not even seen a quarter of all the content. I've never even defeated a boss.
