Movim - An open-source, federated and encrypted Text Chat & Video Call (w/ screenshare!) platform made in France since 2010
This actually looks pretty cool! Love that I can use the account from my self-hosted Snikket instance 😍

Weekly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing this week?
For some reason, I’m really feeling the urge to get back into Team Fortress 2. It’s been ages since I’ve been active now and it seems a rather poor experience on public matchmaking servers. If anyone knows any good (European) community servers, I’d be grateful for a recommendation 😅

Heads up on physical PaySafe Cards as an alternative to physical Steam Gift Cards [DE]
Reply in thread
In-store payments refers to physical store locations. Steam is e-commerce. Wero has been ready for this for almost a year now and if the merchant supports it, it works like a charm.
That said, note that Wero is essentially an instant SEPA transaction so you obviously need a bank account. And, which is maybe not so obvious, your bank needs to support it. Essentially most (or all?) Genossenschaftsbanken and Sparkassen in Germany do; private banks not so much as of yet.

Should you run your sink until the water comes out hot before you start your dishwasher?

As a European that carefully checks the temperature levels indicated on the clothing before washing, I feel like I did it wrong - or at least overly complicated - my whole life now 😅

Messaging apps - XMPP vs Matrix vs ???
Incidentally, I just setup my own Snikket server earlier today. Worked like a charm 😌 I haven’t done a whole lot with it yet, but I like its clear admin interface and the concept of circles. I had some issues with video calls (frozen picture) though.

What are you playing this weekend? 2026-01-30
Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter - it’s one of my favorite jrpg series (although the second chapter is the true jewel in the trilogy) so I enjoy this remake a lot. I’m already at the final boss so I’m fairly optimistic I’ll finish it this weekend.
I may also continue playing a bit Pioneers of Pagonia. I’ve been playing it every now and then as an early adopter during development but it’s finally released now. Still not sure how I feel about this game.

Have you guys played Super Mario Bros Remastered???

Which damage version is implemented in the European version? My memory says Japanese-style for SMB1 and American-style for SMB3 - but given I had no idea there were regional differences, I may be totally wrong. Back then, Europe mostly got a version of the American version a considerable time later than the rest of the world so I guess it doesn’t really make sense the way I remember it 😅

We need a list of products we can buy without worrying about telemetry or advertising.

Could someone elaborate how Volla Phone compares to Jolla phone? I honestly thought at first this was a typo but both actually exist 😅

I’ll probably drop into the Big Run for Splatoon 3 this weekend. I’m also playing Etrian Odyssey 2 HD (which I somehow find a bit too difficult 😅). Plus - Starfox Adventures! It’s remarkable how this GameCube game looks pretty much on par with many current-gen titles. It has some minor gameplay flaws but otherwise its production values are insane

Could Lidl support WERO as part of Lidl Pay?

Check with your bank. Some offer “virtual cards” for their own payment apps. I can at least partially avoid Apple Pay this way.

Wero advertisement at bus stop in Germany
I noticed a lot of Wero advertisements at train stations etc as well, which is great to see! I already use Wero quite a lot for p2p payments but its availability in a commercial setup feels kinda limited. Only online store I successfully used Wero to pay so far was Decathlon. I know there are quite a few others that support it but some truly are so obscurely niche that it’s unlikely I’d ever buy anything there 😅

Thanks for sharing! I’ve already used Taiga, which is super cute, for Scrum, but didn’t know about Vikunja. Looks really cool for stuff that doesn’t warrant its own project.
