on that note, does anyone have recommendations for a neutral and controversy free instance but that also isn't so quick to defederate?

I understand instances like this wanting to defederate on principle and I'm sure it helps to curate a better experience for the people looking for that. Personally I'd rather make the choice myself to block communities I don't like and leave defederation on an instance level to just blocking illegal content and poor moderation and the like.

steam deck is plenty powerful enough, but yeah playing with a controller is awful. played some 1v1 with a friend right after steam controllers came out, I think the only time either of us died was to a tower

not on mobile, they generally use the native browser engine. at the very least it's not electron on ios/android

I've put more work into getting wsl to work at work than I have my home linux machines. it's just so unreliable for some reason. I ended up just giving up and running a full vm instead, and it's so much nicer since I can just pretend windows doesn't exist

canonical has had it's run with the latter two, at least briefly. it's not out of the picture at least

the browser based office does just work if that helps. I don't have anything for the cc side tho

I feel like mouse heavy games aren't too bad as long as they work with the touchscreen

A lot of languages have an asunc/await facade for tasks run on a background thread for result (c#, clj, py, etc), but it's certainly not the default anywhere, and go most goroutines(?)/other csp implementations are probably going to be yielding for some io most of the time at the bottom anyway

I've also had none of these issues on jellyfin either

if skyrim has taught me anything, it's that wearing jewelry that says single will attract literally everyone

I've found it to be less strict than I'd prefer. Things like whether parameters are aligned or indented, whether or not the first one is on its own line, what statements are indented in fluent calls that have blocks, etc.

A lot of other formatters (prettier, anything for python, etc) force something consistent in those cases, whereas it seems like the dotnet formatter prefers to leave things as they were.

I'd love for it to be more opinionated and heavy handed if anyone has suggestions

I refuse to believe that people use a php style guide. I have yet to open a php file in the course of any job that doesn't mix tabs and spaces arbitrarily on top of numerous other horrors.

Luckily it's not often that I have to, so sample size may play in a bit...
