Arch Linux
Gaming has not been a problem for me yet.
Proton works pretty good and games in Steam are starting to release builds for Linux as well because Steam Deck got popular (thanks Valve?) Minecraft Java also runs natively on Linux.

Firefox’s sandboxing sucks ass (especially on Linux). Mozilla has still not implemented a better sandbox, despite the open discussion since years. GrapheneOS (a security and privacy focused aosp rom) uses Chromium for its browser Vanadium because it ultimately is undoubtedly more secure. Google pumps millions into their chrome security team.
So while not that good for privacy, chrome/chromium is better for security.
If that were to happen, the receiving end wouldn’t know who sent which vote, thus making spamming extremely easy.
Mull is not made by Mullvad. Mull is made by the dev of DivestOS.
Mull is a hardened fork of Firefox. I use it but some rare websites’ functionality does not work with it. Mull is not more secure than Chromium though, even if it is hardened. Chromium is undoubtedly more secure but not privacy-friendly. I also don’t want to support the chromium monopoly, so I don’t use them. Brave as a browser also sucks. Shields suck. Nothing to this day has been better than uBlock Origin yet.
Umineko VN.
It has about 100+ playtime and excellent story. The anime sucks ass though.
Wdym not discoverable. Lemmy instances have been indexed for years
Assuming most people use Google, when searching for “lemmy”, it is the third search before some guy named lemmy and when searching for “join lemmy” (logically) it’s the first. So we can conclude that people don’t use it because most of the people link to lemmy.world and not to join-lemmy.org. Most likely not everyone searches for “join lemmy” anyways since most people come from Reddit.
That’s extra work to be done when we already have a join-lemmy.org website by the official devs that does what you want. People changing the link in their comments from lemmy.world to join-lemmy.org is not hard, is it?
Grayjay is amazing. It also supports different platforms like PeerTube, Odyssey, Twitch, etc. Revanced hasn’t been working for me for a while now.
The reason is simply because this is not the kind of social media people have been using for years. Just like how they “learned” how the centralized web works, they also should learn how the decentralized web works. I’m all for the fediverse to grow but I also don’t want ignorant people that don’t want to learn anything about the tech they’ll be using in here.
Quality over quantity or quantity over quality? Choose.
Why? That’s really ineffective and just looks bad imo. That’s just a solution to people linking instances to join instead of leading people to join-lemmy.org.
A default option is bad imo. We want a decentralized platform. Distribution will keep the fediverse alive and well. Maybe a dynamic “default” option would be one solution. One that just changes the default option to a different somewhat known instance once the current default option reaches a certain user count. For this to work, you’d need to lead people to join-lemmy.org.
That’s what join-lemmy.org does. It asks 2 questions:
I never said “people who don’t understand”, I said “people who don’t want to understand”. I am satisfied as long as a newbie knows what the fediverse is, why it is here and what instances are. They are the basics, aren’t they?
There’s also no fix for the “onboarding problem”. That “problem” is federation itself.
Naturally. This is the fediverse, if newbies don’t want to understand how it works even a little bit, they shouldn’t be here.
And lemmy.world won’t shrink. I said “for the time being”, not forever. If LW keeps growing rapidly without giving other instances a chance, then it won’t be any different than Reddit.
If LW admins really care about the fediverse, they probably should close their registrations for the time being, otherwise every newbie will start joining LW because it is the biggest instance out there.
No. That’s the beauty of federation. Lemmy is not centralized like Reddit. You don’t need to be on lemmy.world to see things from it or from other instances like lemm.ee, lemmy.ml, ani.social, etc. There are exceptions though, for example lemmy.world might be defederated with X instance while some other instance might be federated with that instance X. So you wouldn’t be able to see things from that instance X from lemmy.world but from some other instance that is federated with X.
Since Lemmy is not centralized, there’s no “official” community (subreddits are called communities here) here. Your instance might have a meta instance community though.
There’s nothing like that here, at least not builtin. You can easily code up some bot to implement it though. !asklemmy@lemmy.world had a bot do that once when the fediverse was being spammed by some group.
Note: Do keep in mind that you CANNOT bring your comments and post with you if you want to switch instances. Only subscribed communities and some account settings. There were some discussions about using DIDs and one other tech I forgot to make that possible, but it’s not implemented yet.
I don’t know. I primarily use Mull on android because it is a hardened version of Firefox. No issues with it so far.
