Choose your side carefully ☯️
The only thing I like more than sync is people having the option to choose the app they prefer.
Lack of 3rd party apps is why a lot of us are even here in the first place. The more developers committed to Lemmy the better the platform will become.

8BitDo Has Announced The Successor To Its Ultimate Wireless Controller | Time Extension
I emailed support and they confirmed this controller does not support steam input fyi.
So the extra buttons can only be mappable to existing buttons, and the gyro can only emulate joystick movement.
If it gets steam input support I'll consider it but until then it's a no go for me.

It's a bug that wasnt an issue when the community was smaller. Last I heard they will replace it with a refresh icon that pops up at the top when new posts are available.

Mass Murder Is a Choice. The Gun Industry Made It

The rates of gun ownership between Switzerland and the USA are vastly different. USA ownership is almost double that of Switzerland.

I'm not denying your take that it's a multifaceted issue, but equating the gun ownership between Switzerland and the USA doesn't paint an accurate picture.

Lemmy.ml/c/ps5 is moving to Lemmy.world/c/ps5
Reply in thread
This is a very good and fair point. I did consider this and was beginning to actively investigate something like this already, specifically lemmy.zip. I have been pondering a move to something more appropriate for awhile now. Unfortunately the Mali situation is forcing my hand to act more quickly, and I wanted to pick an instance that has a known track record. The World admins have successfully run both lemmy.world as well as their mastodon instances. I do not know much about the gaming-centric instances and their admins enough to jump in blindly at this time. If I had more time to develop those connections with them, I would have done so (and was planning to do so).
I do think that something like a gaming-centric instance is the way forward long-term and supports the Fediverse's values and it will be something I deeply consider when evaluating a potential future migration due to future circumstances or for something like a PS6 community establishment. If there were ever a way to more easily migrate communities, I will also consider this down the line.

people that use reddit repost bots- are you okay? why do you suck?
Reply in thread
I used to use a bot in one of my communities to help me out. Turns out it spammed way too much. Once I got feedback from the community I turned it off. I now have sources fed to me privately via RSS and then filter content based on what I think the community will enjoy and post it manually. Is it harder? Yes. But the community has more engagement, comments more, and votes positively more often since I started doing it this way. I also gain consistent new subscribers daily. I also have control over the "nozzle" so if multiple stories are worth posting but there are too many, I can sideline some for when the news slows down and post them later.
