For anyone struggling to parse the graph as I was: look at the red bars below the photos. The photos are irrelevant from the data.

I picked up Persona 5 Royale during the sale for 30 bucks.

I was a huge fan of P4G on the PSVita.

P5R is so stylish and it does such a great job of speeding up so much of tedium by allowing fast travel to most places.

Everything feels so snappy, the soundtrack is killer, the gameplay is fun. Runs like a dream on the OLEDeck. I've been enjoying taking it slow and getting to know the characters. Just finished the first palace.

That's how aether works kind of.

It's P2P/decentralised rather than federated.

Anyone can make a community. With enough participation in a community one can become a mod. Mods can be impeached by vote of active participants.

Anyone can see nod actions and anyone can decide to disable the actions of any mod.

I love the system, I was active there before moving to Lemmy. I wish it had taken off/absorbed some of the Reddit fallout rather than Lemmy.

AFAIK it is not maintained or at least updated much less frequently than Lemmy/ActivityPub.

I've been really satisfied with Alterna in Ontario for the last decade.

I need to find a way to tell Wayland to launch the ereader part of calibre flipped 90° so that I can use my SteamDeck as a tablet for book reading.

I'm holding my breath for Deadlock to bring my MOBA and shooter field groups together.

I got back to Grim Dawn all the time.

I'm excited for Fangs of Asterkarn!

Wasn't he found legally innocent in the end?

We need a digital seed library with the crispr ready DNA of various seeds for pirates (humans that need to eat) to archive.

Hmmm, I'm hoping the HDR flag fixes HDR in Kingdom Hearts 3 on the OLED SteamDeck.

I'll test tonight.

Nexus Mods is working on an AppImage version of their mod manager that works perfectly in my testing.

Currently it only supports Stardew Valley and Cyberpunk i think.

I'm excited for it to have parity with Windows Vortex.

I won't be voting for the Liberal party again unless they give us the electoral reform they promised us and didn't deliver when they had a majority government.

I'm hopeful for a strong NDP opposition to a Conservative minority.

 

Aether is a reddit alternative not dissimilar to Lemmy in that it is distributed and open source.

Some advantages to Aether over Lemmy are:

It is entirely decentralized rather than federated giving it superior censorship resistance and smooth horizontal scalability. Each user on the Aether network acts as a node operator allowing other users to connect and view the communities that they subscribe to.

Moderators within each community are elected by, are impeachable by, and their decisions can be individually ignored by the users of each community. All mod actions are public information and, as mentioned, each mod action or moderator can be ignored by each user. This maximizes the accountability of the network and greatly reduces the chances of censorship.

The biggest flaw with Aether is that it is not currently maintained (to my knowledge). With such a massive migration of users to Lemmy and the Fediverse as large, I would love to see an increased interest in decentralized solutions like Aether.

Would it be technically feasible for Aether to join the fediverse through modified Lemmy instances? If so it could act as a silver bullet to enable horizontal scalability of the network at large.

I welcome any discussion on the topic.
