Looking through the cached files I've found at least one image file that's 694x694px, not exactly thumbnail size.

I remember this issue from Sync for Reddit. It happened on every page that loaded content including the sub/community feed.

Is this a repost? I've seen this exact same post somewhere.

Anyway, SimpleX may not be decentralized OOTB, but can be made to be since their relays are self-hostable. It should be as simple as spinning up an instance and changing the url in app.

I see what you're saying, but Steam Machines came out in 2015 and was more a push for native Linux support. IMO, Proton was the paradigm shift where native support immediately started mattering less and that came out in 2018

This is good for Linux users. Valve has been fantastic for supporting games on Linux since the Steam Deck and Blizz has never had proper Linux support. Now Linux users can ditch Lutris, Bottles, or WINE if they want to just simplify and use Steam, which does have a native Linux build.

From my understanding, the game is about killing each other lol

Yea, this will always be the problem when trying to create a story around this format of gameplay. You definitely have to ignore the fact that lore enemies can team up because the comp needs it.

The optimistic tone comes across in the character writing, world design, and music. Little in the game is dour or depressing. Instead the focus is on the details that make the locations or characters unique and interesting. There's a lot of language and cultural representation.

Also, barring the secondary deathmatch game made, OW is technically about doing non-kill objectives, it just so happens that killing your opponents is the best way to complete the objectives.

It's funny because on the scoreboard, traditional "Kills" are labelled "Eliminations", but they still keep tradition for multikills i.e. the announcer will say double kill and not something double elim

The OW1 client is gone, but Blizz migrated most things to OW2. The exceptions were the team size (changed from 6v6 to 5v5) and 1 match type (1 type dropped with 2 new types added). Collectibles and anything that could be purchased was also migrated from 1 to 2.

The Proton free tier is pretty limited compared to Gmail, in particular for me, you're only allowed 1 label. The basic paid tier opens up a lot more. They definitely want you to upgrade to the paid tier.

Available on desktop device (Windows, MacOS, Linux), because decentralized network may cause high amount of cellular data usage when connecting with nodes.

It looks like SimpleX does have a desktop app, it's just via cli: https://github.com/simplex-chat/simplex-chat/tree/stable#zap-quick-installation-of-a-terminal-app

I've been using PM for a couple of years and have been enjoying it without issue. No problems with delivery, but can't say anything about access abroad. The service has never gone down as far as I've noticed.

Agreed. There's an option in Mastodon to hide replies in a feed which in theory could solve the problem, but it never hid anything for me. Maybe try that?

Kbin does that in terms of function as in kbin has its own microblogging element to the experience, but it doesn't do anything to bring the existing kbin and mastodon universes together.

Mastodon can do this. Mastodon interprets Lemmy communities as users, Lemmy threads as boosted posts with user mentions, and Lemmy comments as replies. If you search on Mastodon for a Lemmy community using the Mastodon format e.g. @community@domain instead of !community@domain you'll find the community and posts.
