While you can’t follow hashtags you can follow “topics” like movies, tech, etc. They should do a better job of explaining how to use that feature though.

As for pixelfed, I’d love to use it. But the only use I have for Instagram is following local bands. Although there is a new site that’s popped up recently that’s like Instagram with a forum but only for bands and musicians to communicate with their local scenes. Very cool, old Internet kind of feel to it.

As a former mastodon believer, Bluesky is so much better. I’m sorry but the kind of content I wanted on mastodon was never there. Bluesky feels good. Things change, for sure. For now though? This is the best we have for a replacement for Twitter.

Agreed. At least SOME of the games are coming to PC… Oh but they need all your personal information so you’re basically integrated into their ecosystem whether you like it or not.

There is no reason to get a PS5. There are hardly any exclusives worth playing. The games it does have are either on Xbox, which is generally cheaper to invest in, (especially if it’s on gamepass) with the series s. Most games are locked at 30 fps anyway. And now you HAVE to see ads?

Just get a PC or if you really want to stay with consoles, the series s or x on sale are the only options that make some bit of sense. But still, a PC is worth saving for.

Oh you know it. Sometimes, I even put BROCCOLI in the ramen too. Crazy behavior, I know.

I need a good daily vitamin. I just need to bite the bullet and order some. I swear some things wrong with me truly are because I eat 99 cent ramens for dinner because I just don’t want to spend money on food that’s good for me lol.

The joke about corporations realizing they can stop doing “diversity hires” really is true isn’t it? They can do whatever they want, their giant team of lawyers will protect the bottom line no matter what.

ChatGPT is a cancer.

Lol at that title. I just saw some post talking about how “Netflix games was my most used service”. Like, that can’t be true, either that or you don’t really play games lol.

It some ways it’s better than mastodon. Easier to start than mastodon. Less variety than mastodon though. Give it a shot if you get the chance, not too bad.

Yikes. Tons of neo-lib shit takes in this comment section.

Sometimes I’m glad I drive an old, barebones features car.

Correct.

Not not trending hashtags. Just overall trending posts. Maybe I need to uninstall and reinstall tusky or something.

Tusky is a great app. But it doesn’t seem to have a trending tab, which I use to find cool accounts to follow. For now I use trunks.

It was so difficult to use for a long time, I only ever used it for breaking news. Then I finally found internet creators I liked enough to follow, maybe a few joke accounts. That only lasted for maybe a year and then Elon took over and it’s not worth downloading the app for anymore. Way too many right-wing conspiracy guys now.
