Alternatives to Aurora store?
None that I know of.
What I did was make Aurora Store my default app to open links, search for the desired app on my browser, and then long press and open with external application as explained (in more detail) on this reddit post.

What are some songs that you started listening to ironically, but grew to genuinely enjoy?
Not necessarily a song but a whole sub-genre: Eurobeat. It started with Running in the 90s and I just went from there to listening and thoroughly enjoying pretty much the whole Initial D soundtrack.

Do your part, try not to lurk!
I signed up... checks notes... 3 years ago?! I don't even remember why! But I haven't posted much or at all since then. Now that Lemmy is gaining traction and is becoming more active, I'm trying to contribute to it as much as I can. So far, I've tried to comment at least once a day.

Episode discussions for Lemmy
For now, I'd rather have a weekly thread for all anime airing this season, to be honest.

How do you older Lemmy users feel about the large influx of reddit users?

Originally, like someone said, it was a derogatory term for supporters of Khrushchev military intervention against a revolt in Hungary in 1956.
It is also used to pejoratively refer to a supporter of some leftist regimes, such as that of Stalin's USSR, China, and North Korea (also Pol Pot's Cambodia, probably). Are also a supporter of Putin's Russia and its invasion of Ukraine.
Take of it what you will.
EDIT: One could even argue how leftist they even were/are. Or if it was only when it suited them.

Name a legendary musical hit in your country. Rule: must be over 30 years old
Portugal: Grândola, Vila Morena - Zeca Afonso. Probably not a hit when it came out, as it was banned by the dictatorial regime at the time but it became the anthem of our 1974 revolution, pretty much because it was the song that the revolutionary group chose to be played on the radio station (they took control of) to mobilize their forces.
Zeca Afonso has a bunch of other well-known (and really good) songs, all sung in Portuguese but this is the one most people know by heart. It helps that it gets played every year on the anniversary of the revolution and whenever there's a protest.

Yep, felt the same way on reddit. Sometimes, I started writing a comment but then halfway through I thought to myself "can I really muster the energy to engage with people who just skim through it or aggressively pick it apart and write an essay on how right they are with sources either taken out of their ass or taken out of context just to suit their viewpoints?". So I just ended up deleting it and go back to lurking.

Portuguese here. Haven't had to use anything but Firefox on the IRS and Social Security websites. What are you having trouble accessing?

Mine is 3 years old. Back then, I signed up but never really posted, just lurked for a while and went to explore Tildes instead. So yeah, didn't really do anything. I remember there being a few enthusiastic users about open-source software but also a few tankies, which kinda turned me off it. But I'm glad Lemmy's exploding with activity right now, as we got a more diverse userbase.

What are your favorite gaming YouTubers?
I don't watch that much Youtube nowadays (don't have much free time), but when I do, I enjoy these channels the most:
On PeerTube, there's BoilingSteam, who mainly focuses on PC gaming on Linux. I'd like to get a better feel for what's on there regarding gaming channels and whatnot. If you know any you'd recommend, I'd really appreciate if you could mention them.

What song from your country should be heard by more people?
Carlos Paredes - Verdes anos. Paraphrasing a comment on the video: Portuguese soul summed up in a song.

What upcoming seasonal anime are you most excited about?
In the upcoming season: Rurouni Kenshin's remake This year: Sousou no Frieren (really interesting premise) and Overtake!

Domi made a good point, people won't want to see spoilers of episodes they haven't watched yet. Forgot about that. I guess it could work if people tagged spoilers but then it would just be a thread full of posts inside spoiler tags.
As for the system, eh, it's ok: ::: spoiler Example This is a spoiler :::
But I couldn't see it on Jerboa, only when using Lemmy through a browser. Maybe I've missed it or it hasn't been implemented yet?
EDIT: Yep, spoiler tags don't work on Jerboa, as far as I can tell.

do you think older-style internet forums have a place in the future of the internet?
Reply in thread
ironically–and probably under the influence of reddit, where this has become completely gamed–i can’t stand this style of information sorting. i think it really only works if you have people mashing inputs for it with good faith and good understanding; otherwise, it descends into muck eventually. i do much better with either forums or real-time chats, probably because i go in with no expectations of what’s good or bad having already been sorted for me
On reddit, I used a userscript to hide upvotes/downvotes just to avoid that gamification. It made my experience much better because, like you said, I went in without expectations and forced myself to read and reflect on the content (both comments and posts) instead of having them presented to me as being good or bad.
I'm glad beehaw has, at least, the number of upvotes/downvotes on comments hidden by default.

Star Trucker: Elite Dangerous meets American Truck Simulator
As a fan of both games, this is perfect. And even though you can already be a space trucker in Elite Dangerous, there's no truck-shaped space ships, so I guess that's the untapped market they're going for.

How many of you are using Bookwyrm (federated alternative to Goodreads)?
Just followed you. And here's mine: https://bookwyrm.social/user/BoormanTheChauffeur . Like others have said, I use it mostly to keep track of what books I'm reading and also ones I've read.

Reminder that you can still use RSS
I use newsboat on the desktop, because is a terminal based app and terminal based apps are BASED. There are many more fancy readers on desktop.
Also Feeder on mobile is pretty good, it’s available on F-Droid.
Haha, I did the exact same thing yesterday. Terminal based apps are indeed based.
Also, you can use teddit instead if you don't want to give traffic directly to reddit (as far as I know). It's pretty easy: instead of adding /.rss, you add ?api&type=rss at the end. See here.

If the ideal setup is many medium sized instances rather than a few huge ones, wouldn't that mean users would need to subscribe to duplicate communities in all of those instances?
