I feel like protests like this are also for the morale of the country. We fall into echo chambers online, and it is hard to see how many people are actually unhappy with current affairs. By taking to the streets, you can quantify that number and show Americans that they are not alone with how they feel. When enough people feel that way, enough to take time out of their day to simply march and take to the streets, mayb we can get some weight for people to actually listen. This is our opportunity to stand together, literally and figuratively.

I hav heard that there can be issues with windows updates messing up Bazzite if installed on the same drive. I got a separate drive just for my Bazzite install to be on the safe side.

Very much so. Even for non-gaming, most stuff works out of the box from the package manager, everything else you can get working with a distrobox. Ended up getting blender to work better on Bazzite with AMD GPU rendering than I could on Windows lol

+1 for Bazzite. It has just enough guard rails to keep you from (easily) making your system unusable while still providing more freedom than windows. Install is cake. Literally clear a drive or partition for your OS and storage, download it, and you’re off to the races. just make sure to always check your build against protondb For games to see if there are any special run commands to put into steam, and you will be golden.

Think it’s an echidna.

Yep! Since it is a smaller community, it feels less like screaming into the void. There’s a good chance people will see a comment, even if it isn’t made in the first hour or so.

Lower case doesn’t count for roman numerals!

The fire broke me. I had been playing casually on my phone and had been coming back over the course of 12+ hours. All for nought 😩

I think one thing that may help with this is letting users stay on their instance when browsing others. Right now, if I want to hop over to another instance, I can definitely link there or comment if using the appropriate channel, but actually going there makes it seem like I am signed out. Implementing features like this https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-ui/issues/1048 would help make the experience feel more cohesive, and encourage exploration of other instances without confusing users and accidentally encouraging sticking to one’s own instance.
