Amazing, thanks for sharing. Some super interesting new finds - this game really is the gift that keeps on giving!

I think they’re referring to a trade in programme

Yeah, definitely a Memmy thing. Happened to me too.

Absolutely. It really depends what you want to do. Jump straight into the frontline meat grinder and you’ll be able to dip out whenever you like. You could even do some basic logistics runs in that time. Start building bases or factories and that’s when there’s a huge time commitment lol

Uhh… Baldur’s Gate 3?

I use parsec to play retro games with my mates by streaming from my pc. Works really well!

That is impressive. I host a fair amount at home but do rely on lots of cloud services too. My doorbell won’t ring on all my smart speakers if the internet is down!

Only if it turns up in a search result for something. I refuse to install their crappy app on my phone and Lemmy scratches enough of the itch that I haven’t been tempted back

Yup, I’ve done the full switcheroo. Not going to be using Reddit’s app and 90% of my Reddit use is on my phone…

Can see you from my local instance :)

I’ve been using Emby for a few years after Plex just became worse and worse, relying on cloud logins and being unreliable, pushing their own junk content above my library etc. Emby reminds me of what plex used to be, it’s amazing!

Posting from it now, it’s fantastic!

Inb4 YouTube starts charging for API access… too soon? :(

Cannot updoot enough, I love this game. Best RTS I’ve ever played!

It seems like PeerTube does allow peer to peer streaming of watched videos too, so that might help mitigate the bandwidth requirements. The storage and transcoding requirements will be far larger than things like Lemmy though, agreed.

I can honestly say since Twitter did this I’ve hardly ever used it
