I hope my post doesn't break the rules ; I'd like to invite as many people as possible to participate to Sunnyvision, the summer edition of the Lemmyvision song contest.
It's a fun way to celebrate summer, and discover new music, more info on the original post, quoted below !
TL;DR
- In ~~this thread~~ the thread on !lemmyvision@jlai.lu, in the comments, post a song that was released in summer of any year.
- Next week, you'll be able to vote for your favourite song from the songs posted here.
Remember that time I wanted to set up a smaller scale Lemmyvision for summer? Yeah me neither.
But here it is, it's still summer for a week, so..
Welcome to Lemmyvision's summer edition, Sunnyvision!🌞
If you don't know what Lemmyvision is, check out the sidebar!
The aim is to promote different languages and cultures from around the world, to share more between our online communities across Lemmy, and discover songs from lesser known artists.
The first edition concluded on April (https://jlai.lu/post/6041838) with 9 instances/countries/communities participating! The Northern Boys - Sexy Train (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4VXKhJfRQ7k), the feddit.uk submission, won!
For this 'lighter' edition, the goal is to celebrate the last week of summer, with some summer related tunes. You do not need to bring your instance/community, everyone can share a song, no matter what instance they're on, as long as they can federate here!
Rules
- Just post a song that was released in summer, from any year you want
- At the end of the week I'll gather all the songs posted in this thread
- You'll then be able to listen to a playlist with all those songs, and vote for your favourite!
Spread the word if you can, and I hope you have fun, and that everyone can discover new music! 🎶

Zen Browser, love the split view feature, and native vertical tabs !
It's a Firefox fork btw
Firefox because of the addons, also because it syncs (weirdly, but still) with Firefox on my pc
This interaction reads like a tennis match
but the electoral math didn’t seem to be on Sanders’s mind.”
No indeed, Sanders has the people's rights in mind, first and foremost,
"electoral maths" is such a cynical view of the political fight... Dare I even say this is a loser mindset
Oh wow thanks for the correction, I'll edit my comment
Most open source projects will have a donation page / link, so it relies on people feeling compelled to donate because the software provided is useful to them.
Lemmy for example has options for financially supporting its development. Some Lemmy instances also feature a link to a donation page to cover the hosting costs.
Some have an organisation behind it, like ~~Firefox has the Mozilla Foundation to finance it~~. Actually it's the other way around, see ahal's comment below
The team behind VLC has a "for profit" branch that adapts the video software for companies, allowing them to also finance VLC's development in addition to donations.
The instance I'm on is definitely smaller in scale and thus calls for a different approach to social media. It definitely feels like the old school forum days where you end up recognising usenames, I wouldn't be surprised if a year down the line we end up setting up an irl meeting between active members.
On the other hand, it's definitely hard to break bad habits, and having been on reddit for years, I still find myself having to fight some learned behaviour (doom scrolling, opening the app when I just closed it seconds ago, wanting to post a snarky comment to someone who's clearly wrong instead of trying to be nice and explanatory...)
I wouldn't say that leaving centralised platforms for the fediverse is a "lesser evil", because the fediverse is what you make of it, you still have some control if you're techy enough. But I do think it take extra voluntary self change to have a better approach to social media, and the fediverse isn't a solution to that in itself.
This is quite a smart solution, good job !
Graphics wise mostly, it runs okay (30 to 40 FPS), but there's some input lag because of it in some environment heavy parts
Yeah at this point they're basically the same thing. The important difference you have to know is that Emudeck will install emulators independently, and show them as their own games in your Steam library, whereas Retrodeck will install ES-de and only show one executable in your Steam library, from which you will launch your emulated games. It's a matter of preference.

Whether on the deck or not ; I personally haven't tried any on the deck yet, but I downloaded about 40 demos or so, Tails of Iron 2 and Airborne Empire were good fun, The Alters and Tactical Breach Wizards completely hooked me!
Anything from Leader Games and illustrated by Kyle Ferrin (Root, Oath, Fort...) feels like cheating but still, I absolutely adore their art style
Everdell, Photosynthesis, Parks, look nice as well
I also bought an updated edition of Costa Ruana just because of the illustrations: https://www.pamwishbow.com/client-work/project-four-yjynj-pafyx
Lemmy users, you can now vote for your favourite song in Lemmyvision's song contest, an Eurovision-like song contest, in which various instances submitted a song of their choice!
My sincere thanks everyone for their submissions, I have created a form where you can rank your favourite songs, it's available here :
➡️ Lemmyvision Voting Form - https://tally.so/r/nWNgKQ ⬅️
I'll leave the form open for a week and then collect the results!
Make sure to check each submitted song thanks to the playlists @Ategon@programming.dev has created:
Full list of songs:
- 🇦🇺 Royel Otis - Heading For The Door (aussie.zone / Australia)
- 🇧🇪 Puggy - Lost Child (!belgique@jlai.lu / Belgium)
- 🇨🇦 Lu Kala - Hotter Now (lemmy.ca / Canada)
- 🇩🇰 Pil - Dronning Af Månen (feddit.dk / Denmark)
- 🇫🇷 Bagarre - ON EST LES MÊMES (jlai.lu / France)
- 🇭🇺 Azahriah - introvertált dal (!hungary@lemmy.world / Hungary)
- 🇬🇧 The Northern Boys - Sexy Train (feddit.uk / UK)
- 🇦🇶 Casette Beasts - Your Inception (programming.dev / Programming)
- 🇳🇿 Tiki Taana - Tangaroa (lemmy.nz / New Zealand)
You will be asked to rank the songs from your favourite to least favourite ; you may notice that users from specific instance cannot rank the song their instance has submitted, in order to keep things fair. Users from non-participating instances can still participate in the voting, and self identify as third party. Let me know if there's any issue with the form!
Enjoy! 🎶
I love my deck because
- it can play Steam games fairly well
- it can play emulated game really well
- but most importantly it's a linux computer, I can browse the web, watch a movie, even be productive on it, and I sometimes don't even need to plug in a mouse and keyboard or an external screen !
But I was wondering what kind of uses other people have with it, as a non gaming machine?

Yeah France remains one of the most productive countries in the European Union, so they must be doing something right
Here's an interesting report on France productivity from 2019: https://economy-finance.ec.europa.eu/system/files/2019-11/en_1errapportcnp-10july-final.pdf
