  • Some would say all you need is to cuff your jeans and appreciate lemon bars! Jokes aside, I always took the prevalence of memes like that by and for bi people as a self aware dig at the fact we don’t really have much of an established culture just yet and it’s kind of an ongoing thing. That’s been my interpretation at least, I’m certainly no authority.
    At any rate, hang in there and I hope you manage to find your way out of the closet and into a situation you’re comfortable with soon if that’s your wish :)












  • So it sounds to me like you have a IPv4 only address behind CGNAT, which makes port forwarding not work anymore. It’s how my connection is set up, but luckily it does fully support IPv6 and that doesn’t require any forwarding so I make do.
    If IPv6 isn’t an option for you or you’d like to access your services from IPv4 only networks, I’d just go with Tailscale myself. I’ve been a happy user for years and it just works so well, should be good in your situation as well.





  • In my very limited experience with my personal instance, I’ve had to give federation time for it to start working as expected. When I started out, sometimes I wouldn’t find posts or my comments wouldn’t show on the instance a post came from and whatnot, don’t notice that anymore. Could easily be something wonky on my end though, I’m not sure.
    One thing that I still find extremely confusing and unintuitive is searching for a not yet federated community doesn’t return any results, but also immediately makes the community visible in the “all” view if it does indeed exist. I was under the impression it’d just show the community link there and then so I assumed it was broken for the longest time, for all I know that’s actually how it’s supposed to go and I still have something broken somewhere lol.


  • Ohh so that’s what it was lol, I’d assumed it was auto saving at first as well but got confused when it didn’t seem to generate an actual new save slot. At any rate, I reckon it’s a good thing it was generous enough that I didn’t even register it had limits in place to begin with.

    Looking forward to the crew interactions too, seems ripe for a fun time since the game doesn’t take itselt too seriously and they all look interesting and seem to have fun abilities.


  • I’ve played several, mostly games I’ve been following so no huge surprises. My highlights were:

    Lies of P
    Great soulslike built on a grim take on Pinocchio. Borrows a lot from Bloodborne, oppressive and interesting world, satisfying combat.

    Sea of Stars
    Super charming JRPG I’ve been looking forward to for a while, great pixel art, fun combat system with timed hits, great music.

    LunarLux
    Very similar to a Mega Man Battle Network game, but combat leans more towards the turn based side of the spectrum. Has some Undertale influences as well. The art being as cute as it is might turn some off, but it’s a plus for myself.

    Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew
    Strategy game from the folks behind Shadow Tactics and Desperados. You control undead pirates with unique and fun abilities, and the game encourages you to rewind time as needed to experiment and play around.

    Honorable mentions go to Eternights and Viewfinder. Fantastic games all around, the following months are looking great!



  • Thanks, actually it made a big strides towards being less hierarchical, you can put everything in a folder and use internal links now, plus it has relationship links that are very useful some times.

    Ah, good to know!

    Regarding it using a database instead of a file system it has a bunch of pros but has its cons too, in my opinion there should be a feature were you can use both and if you use the file system in one of your notes, the note is less powerful so that you can use both the database and the the file system.

    Yeah, I 100% understand and respect the reasoning behind doing it that way but it’s just not something I can get fully behind myself. As a developer myself, I wouldn’t want to support both code paths so I also get why it isn’t really a priority.

    Lastly the phone app is a bit of a sore point for me too, I just write stuff in markdown and then import them in as soon as I can.

    That’s fair, do you just use something like Obsidian or GitJournal? I need to look into those at some point.

    That all said, I think I’m entrenched too deeply into my current solution to reconsider but I might spin up an instance to check it out. Thanks for the heads-up!
