I'm a big fan of lobste.rs - similar structure, different vibe (it had nothing to do with rust, just a coincidence)

I also use Due - it's become an important part of my every day that reminds me of anything important

I find that I have to be careful and remove things that aren't important to me any more as they change otherwise I can get alarm fatigue and start ignoring reminders though. I suspect that would be true of any system I used, though!

I don't think the monetisation of content is inevitable for social media . It's inevitable for companies driven by profit who fully control a platform if that company wants to survive - but there are other ways to structure a community that doesn't rely on centralised platforms run by a business.

I guess we might see if i'm right over the next decade or two. I hope I am.

I've been almost exclusively using my steam deck for gaming since I got it.

I did briefly use a linux desktop for gaming, but I got a VR headset and it wasn't well supported at the time so I went back to Windows for that.

Anyone got recommendations for anything interesting looking?

I'm mostly playing tap wizard 2 on iOS at the moment, though looking out for anything interesting

I usually play Historic Brawl, because with the commander and the 100 card deck limit it's the closest thing I have to paper commander while I don't have any room to play paper commander!

I do sometimes play other formats like limited quick draft or other constructed formats in order to finish off my daily quests

Ah - I only lurk on there, I don't have an account. I've never felt the need to participate, but that could just be me.
