I really want to like Lemmy

The biggest problem I see is fragmentation, people are creating the same community in different instaces, /c/Piracy for example. Lemmy should prevent this, community names should be unique, it should have an index of all the Lemmy Fediverse where instances can lookup if a community exists instead of waiting for a user to import that community to his instance. Something similar to what BTC does with the decentralized ledger.

Using the "frog in boiling water" technique

Reply in thread

Yeah, and I'm not against piracy by any means, I pirate every movie I watch despite having Netflix, Disney+, Star+, HBO Max and sometimes Prime. We have all of those because it's easier for my parents but God, Stremio is a lot better than having to find out which platform has the movie I want, and sometimes there's no alternative other than piracy.

As Gabel said, piracy is a service problem, and I think that music streaming services are great and at a fair price, so I don't see the need for pirating music as long as you can afford it.

Is SteamOS a future default for handhelds?

I meant that it would be a whole another problem that I don't think they would want to address right now, considering that they're still fixing Proton. Creating an ARM translator with good enough perfomance would take several years, and I don't think they would profit as much from it, they did Proton because they don't want to depend on Windows (which in recent years has become a competitor since Microsoft is investing more in the PC gaming ecosystem).
