RIP r/trees
Has /r/trees said they plan to be closed indefinitely?

For everyone new to Lemmy, how are you finding the experience?
Confusing. There are communities I can't subscribe to because I can't access them from my instance, and I have no idea why that is. The experience has been interesting so far, and growing the network is going to be something I'll be keeping an eye on. For now, though, I'll have to wait until someone creates the communities I was a part of on Reddit.
Edit: It seems a community won't show up on your instance's community list unless someone in that instance is subscribed to it.

I probably will, because I know the communities I was part of there will never be as big and succesful here. Let's face it, Reddit is far simpler. Lemmy takes a little effort to figure out how to navigate, and many casual internet users won't want to put in that effort.

is it possible to open a link in a new tab by default ?
I don't think I've left-clicked a link in years. I just pretty much always open whatever I open with a middle click.
However, that's a post for /c/Lemmy_[email protected]

Give it a few months. More apps will show up.

What kind of official AP would you like Paizo to make?
I'd love an AP that deals with plane hopping, but also Astral Planar stuff, similar to Spelljammer. Though I suppose that's what Starfinder is.
I guess I just want a Starfinder 2e

Do your part, try not to lurk!
I'm a little confused on how to find more communities to join. I'm on the feddit.nl instance, and I know I can subscribe to communities on any instance, but there isn't really a search button or anything like that, at least not on the Jerboa app. Is there, like, a user guide on how this shit works?

What are some of the "small things" you appreciate about Lemmy over Reddit?

Man I'm not looking forward to when the bots find Lemmy.

What non-d20 systems are you playing right now?
Blades in the Dark is my favorite non d20 system and I play it as much as possible. I have a monthly Blades game locally, but I also host and GM oneshots in it on a Discord server.

What devices do you use for running games?
I use Obsidian (which is free if you use Github to sync instead of paying for their syncing service) for prep and worldbuilding, as well as initiative tracking. I bought a laptop with a touch screen specifically for running games. Other than that, I'm all analog. Drawn maps, handwritten notes, physical dice and paper character sheets have my preference.

What do you think the Linguist Archetype
It's a fun and useful archetype, like GolGolarion mentioned, but I personally wouldn't take it unless I'm playing a campaign where I know it'll come up a lot, and/or we're playing with Free Archetype. It's just not worth the class feat slots otherwise.

Is er toevallig een instance die helemaal in TTRPG thema is? Ik heb een Pathfinder instance gevonden en wat TTRPG communities op verschillende algemene instances, maar een TTRPG instance zou ideaal zijn.
Edit: Misschien ga ik er van de zomer zelf wel eentje opzetten, als er tegen die tijd niet al eentje is.

How do you prep your Homebrew/APs?
I use Obsidian for prep and pen and paper for play. I absolutely adore Obsidian's versatility and have a crapton of plugins that I all use.
When worldbuilding, I like to start with a loose concept of the world, pitching that to players, and then have them ask questions about the world. I'll take those questions home and try to find satisfying answers for them until I have a barebones world, detailed enough that my players could feasibly pitch characters in it. From there, I have them all pitch 3 characters so that I find what needs to be more detailed and then I write that bit of the world.
It's all play and write as needed from there.

How many of you have pulled the plug and deleted reddit already?
I haven't and I won't. As much as I hate the API changes and as much as I hate being forced to use the terrible official app, there are communities on Reddit that won't be going dark indefinitely that I am an active part of and wish to remain part of.
Lemmy is a great concept in theory, but in practice it leads to what was a single community on Reddit being spread over several instances. A community with tens of thousands on Reddit might find a few communities spread over a handful of instances and because a community doesn't show up in the Communities list under All until someone does the ![email protected] command for that specific community (meaning they physically went to other instances to find that community on that other instance and then in practice manually added it to the list)
This also means that as the amount of instances grows, specific communities will become even harder to find as the instances themselves become more obscure and hard to find.

There was a lot of talk about iOS alternatives to PathBuilder, but I don't think there is one. Does Wanderer's Guide work on phone?

Klein probleempje
Er zijn de communities op de feddit.nl instance. Of je kunt kijken of je de mod kan bereiken om het over te nemen. Volgens mij is er ook nog /c/[email protected].
