When you find yourself signing up for more and more federated and ActivityPub services online, that’s when you know you’re on the right side of the internet. The best side.

I'm curious, is the recent decline in Fediverse users and activity due to people moving to BlueSky? What other factors might there be?
I'm sure there are ebbs and flows over time. But I do hope the overall trend continues to be upward.
I've made a @socialfolio account so you can now find all of my infrequent, low quality posts everywhere!
Here's what Sopuli would look like if it was a 90s website. Thanks to https://geocities.live/
Mamy tu jakiś speców od #activitypub? Czytałem właśnie ten artykuł
https://chrastecky.dev/technology/activity-pub-the-good-the-bad-and-the-ugly
i zaciekawiło mnie to, że są jednak różnice w implementacji tego protokołu w różnych projektach i że np. nie można wymieniać prywatnych wiadomości między #Mastodon i #lemmy , czy też jakieś zamieszanie z like. Prawda to? Jeśli tak, to faktycznie, jest to kiepska sprawa.
chrastecky.dev · ActivityPub: The Good, the Bad and the Ugly | Blog by Dominik ChrásteckýActivityPub is the best protocol available for interoperable federated social media—primarily because no other current federated protocols target social media, offer interoperability, and aren't deprecated.

Can I just say that I get a weird thrill whenever I boost a #Lemmy meme on #Mastodon ?
Fediverse Sprechstunde!
am Donnerstag 24.04.2025, 19:30 Uhr!
ONLINE!
Bist du #neu oder #neuhier in der Welt des Fediverse? Kein Problem! Wir helfen dir bei den ersten Schritten: Profil einrichten, Sicherheitstipps, Posten und Vernetzung. Sei dabei!
Hauptthema: #Lemmy mit @Ranslite .
Ich freue mich darauf und hoffe es werden weitere Nutzer von Lemmy dabei sein.
Lemmy ist wie ein föderiertes Reddit aufgebaut: Der Fokus liegt auf Themen-Communities, in denen Beiträge (z. B. Links, Texte, Bilder) gepostet und kommentiert werden. Die Diskussionen sind eher threadbasiert und themenzentriert.
Eingeladen sind ebenso alle, die bereits Erfahrungen mit Mastodon, Friendica, Pixelfed, Misskey, Hubzilla oder anderen Anwendungen haben und ihr Wissen gerne weitergeben möchten.
Wissensaustausch: Deine Kenntnisse im Fediverse könnten anderen Teilnehmern sehr nützlich sein, besonders denjenigen, die noch neu in der Community sind. Networking: Dies ist eine hervorragende Gelegenheit, sich mit anderen engagierten Mitgliedern der Gemeinschaft zu vernetzen und neue Kontakte zu knüpfen. Ideen und Inspiration: Deine Perspektive als erfahrener Benutzer oder Betreiber einer Instanz kann dazu beitragen, innovative Ideen zu fördern und die Zukunft des Fediverse mitzugestalten.
Der Raum wird 10 Minuten vor Beginn geöffnet.
Der Link: wird hier 1 Tag davor gepostet
Das Online-Treffen findet auf unserem BigBlueButton-Server statt. Du benötigst keine zusätzliche Software, sondern nur einen Browser – vorzugsweise Firefox oder Chrome – ein Mikrofon (es handelt sich schließlich um eine Sprechstunde) und, wenn du möchtest, eine Webcam. Wir freuen uns auf einen lebhaften Austausch! 
Der Ablauf der Sprechstunde sieht folgendermaßen aus: Zu Beginn geben wir Tipps und Hinweise für Anfänger und Einsteiger. Anschließend geht es um Ratschläge für Instanzbetreiber und Moderatoren. Ein solcher Austausch ist wichtig und notwendig für eine gute Vernetzung untereinander. Die Welt des Fediverse ist Größer und vielfältiger. Mehr Miteinander statt Gegeneinander.
Je mehr mitmachen, desto besser!

If you want to read my latest 'news' post for #gaming and #SteamDeck then you can follow the link to it on #Lemmy
As ever, I used to write and post these on #Reddit, but since that one has turned into a wasteland of corpo greed and admin overlordishness, the #FOSS alternative is my choice now.
Anyway, I cover some fun things, which you might enjoy reading. I've done TEN of these now!
lemmy.worldSteam Deck / Gaming News #10 - Lemmy.WorldAs is now my tradition (this is my 10th of these posts! And it’s been 10 days
since my last one of these posts, there’s gotta be some symmetry in that
somewhere) you’ll know the drill. I want to at least try give a personal look at
the news and interesting stories I’ve spotted in gaming-in-general and the Steam
Deck which have grabbed my attention the most. This isn’t anything refined or by
any means official - just me trying to bring that feeling back of old games
sites, old games blogs. Before ads and begging for Patreon subs became a focus
on a game site above the content. Anyway, if you’re interested, grab a cup of
coffee or tea and sit down for a read:

News: # Baldur’s Village
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/b3774fd7-a388-4a8c-8287-960c9c7a75ee.webp] You
might have seen this one if you’re in that intersecting circle of being a
Baldur’s Gate 3 and Stardew Valley fan. A modder by the name of BV created - you
guessed it - a mod for Stardew featuring the characters from BG3. > Baldur’s
Village is a fan-made expansion that adds Baldur’s Gate 3 characters to Stardew
Valley. This mod adds 20+ new beautifully drawn characters, 6 new locations, new
shops with special items, events, and more!
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/0b4c11c2-0108-4a4e-b6aa-475bca3297fb.webp]
Larian Studios CEO Swen Vincke himself praised the mod, and it has had 60,373
downloads at the time I’m rambling on here. The sad part was Wizards of the
Coast issuing a DMCA on the mod, which they did say happened “…in error…” after
it got a loooooot of backlash (including Vincke tweeting about it) - and dropped
their DMCA. If you want to read more: * Here is a link to an IGN article on the
DMCA

* Here is a link to the mod on Nexus (have a look, it’s fantastic what they
did!) [https://www.nexusmods.com/stardewvalley/mods/30888?tab=description]
Anyway, this all strikes me as Wizards’ totally meaning this, but backing off
when the backlash against them was too much.
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Donkey Kong
Champ wins case:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/758a5966-6966-4c8b-8c02-1bfc0d316a6f.jpeg] A
Queensland YouTuber, Karl Jobst, was ordered to pay $350,000 plus interest and
costs to former Donkey Kong world record holder Billy Mitchell (who, let’s face
it, is a very controversial figure in recent years!) after the Brisbane District
Court found Jobst defamed Mitchell in a 2021 video by falsely linking Mitchell
to another YouTuber’s suicide and accusing him of cheating and frivolous
lawsuits. The court ruled Jobst acted with “reckless indifference” to the truth,
damaging Mitchell’s reputation, and awarded damages for non-economic loss and
aggravated harm due to Jobst’s malice and refusal to retract claims. The case
did not determine whether Mitchell actually cheated, though his records were
later reinstated by Twin Galaxies and Guinness World Records. To clear things
up, Jobst always made it seem like this lawsuit was regarding Billy Mitchell
lying about his world records. It wasn’t. It was about Karl defaming Billy by
claiming some other person committed suicide due to Billy’s lawsuits against
him. * A link to an article on the result (The Guardian) is here

posting this! Since I’m a GOGFanGirl I’m just going to leave the GOG links here,
but if you’re a Steam fan…it’s free there also. And it has been given away
before on Epic - so you may have it there also. I’ll leave a direct link, click

------------------------------------------------------------------ # Nightdive &
the 360 era:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/91150d85-374a-4562-af42-438ed2529de4.webp] The
studio’s CEO Stephen Kick and director of business development Larry Kuperman
said they were keen to start looking at potential remasters of games that were
only released on Xbox 360 or PS3. > “I would begin asking a couple of
questions,” he explained. “Was it Xbox 360 exclusive, or was there a PC version
out too? Because that also changes things, the little preservation that’s
available. Do we have source code? If so, what’s the quality of the source code?
How about the assets? Those are the kinds of considerations that we have there.
That being said, there were some really good games that came out in that era
that shouldn’t be lost.” The amount of games that were from that era is…endless.
We’re at an odd stage with these ones - there’s not PC versions of all of them,
and the emulators are still in their infancy. I run a lot of 360 and PS3 games,
but the results really do vary. So I’m excited to see what might happen! *
Here’s an article on it if you wanted to read all they say (and potentially
promise

know, I know, this one is super late (both in regards to April 1st, and with how
old this joke is) to posting this, but I find it kinda sweet.

Just an old April Fools hoax printed by Electronic Gaming Monthly - their first
April Fools joke.
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Atomfall
Atomfall has an easter egg homage to a 30 year old game, Z, from another British
studio. I just thought this was a cute lil nod to another who came before them:

‘World Of Warcraft’ and ‘Overwatch’ art director Bill Petras has died. > “Bill
was a legend in the community and he will be deeply missed” Announcing the news
on Linkedin, former Blizzard Cinematic Project Director Harley D. Huggins II
said: > “I’m writing to share some heartbreaking news. Bill Petras, a game
development legend, has unexpectedly passed away. Billy was an amazingly gifted
artist who worked at Blizzard Entertainment for almost two decades. He was
immensely proud of the work he did there, most notably as the Art Director for
World Of Warcraft and Overwatch.” The link to the LinkedIn post is here, if you

------------------------------------------------------------------ # Nintendo
Switch Things Just thought a handful of short sharp Nintendo-in-general and
Switch things might be nice to include here. I had a vast collection of Switch
consoles and games, but after getting my Steam Deck I just…emulated them
instead. Though recently I did pick up a cheap-cheap V2, picofly it and have
been having fun owning one once again!
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Deku:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/4afb4c2f-648a-452d-93d7-17254818bd7c.jpeg]
Deku Deals is a the site that helps you track Nintendo Switch game prices, get
alerts for sales, build your wishlist and backlog, and generally save money on
games. We all know the lack of sales Nintendo generally has, this site makes
buying Switch games a little easier. I’d hazard if you’re here on Lemmy then
(like me) you hate Reddit with most of your body. But…maybe not. Regardless, the
Deku team did an AMA recently on Reddit (and sadly it is not anywhere else to
link to), so if you’re a Switch fan who knows and loves Deku - it might be worth
your time having a read of this AMA they did: The link to their AMA is here,
hosted on the r/NintendoSwitch sub-reddit

------------------------------------------------------------------ # Nintendo
DSi lost photos: I’m in Tokyo right now. I actually just kinda…ran away from
work and life for awhile (previous to this I ran off to Rome), but I’ve been
having such a wonderful time. The sheer amount of old Nintendo consoles and
handhelds is…vast. I’ve had such a fun time finding some nice ones to add to my
collection while here. The best so far was a Nintendo DSi I bought. Inside it
was a romcart with a full sized SD card inside it, and on it were these photos:

(photos have metadata of 14th April, 2006) I shared the images on my Mastodon,
and someone chimed in with the idea it might: > probably Takamizawa Toshihiko
aka Takamiy from The Alfee band I’m kinda in love with these, it’s funny to
discover! I’m guessing someone had that flashcart from their DS Lite and
just…threw it in the DSi? Who knows. Fun find though!
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Nintendo
and Palworld:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/599a6849-9630-4596-a868-72c4f66659c9.png]
Seems like Nintendo has secured two more anti-Palworld U.S. patents, and might
file multi-patent U.S. lawsuit against Pocketpair in a matter of months now.
Here’s an article on the goings-on - the link is to gamesfray
[https://gamesfray.com/nintendo-secures-two-more-anti-palworld-u-s-patents-might-file-multi-patent-u-s-lawsuit-against-pocketpair-in-a-matter-of-months-now/]
Crazy that you can obtain patents and then retroactively apply them. Seems like
a total abuse of the system. And here is a link to the same site explaining how
Nintendo has filed the patents after Palworld released
[https://gamesfray.com/why-nintendo-can-sue-pocketpair-over-patents-filed-after-palworlds-release-explain-it-to-me-like-im-five-series-launches-on-games-fray-for-interested-gamers/]
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Terrible
GameCube design:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/91133247-8e9e-4713-9d37-e222ff058c91.png]
…what’s going on with the Nintendo GameCube controller they’ve got coming for
the Switch 2? That new ZL button (finally added) looks like it is for ants? Why
didn’t they make it the same size as the opposite one? Here’s to hoping that
8BitDo makes an alternative that might actually be comfortable to use. For those
why are actually going to buy this console
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Game Boy
Cassettes: This idea has been around for a long time - you take your loose games
from their caseless existence and then place them in audio cassette cases.
There’s a huge community surrounding the customization of these, how to display
them, concepts to print out the game cover art, plastic insets to house the game
cart itself…and so on. This one was particularly nice though, I came across Pat,
who goes by hoangnguyen2108 and their printing (the covers, and the beautiful 3D
printed cassette housing too!) Just thought you might like to see these, and
what people do to show off their collections:

------------------------------------------------------------------ # Physical
Manuals: If you know me at all by now, you’ll know I just adore the physical
creations people make - especially since modern gaming companies have left such
a void these days. I found a user called RowanFN1 who makes their own miniature
printed manuals for their games. There’s a lot of these, but I’ve just grabbed a
few photos to show what they look like. I am very into this - I look at the ‘big
box’ PC games from before I was born and see the amazing things they came with,
it makes me feel sad about the state of gaming now. Anyway, time for the photos:

Spines:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/eeb3a775-6ab1-46bc-b6e9-3c5f041ff68f.webp]
Last one for the Nintendo bits and pieces. I found a community called Switch
Spines who re-make their game covers to remove that horrible red design, and
instead do their own full-color replacements. I’ll just include a few images
because for some reason I’m kinda obsessed with physical game covers/cases (my
lurking of the GOG thread where they make physical covers for GOG games is
like…my fav place on the internet besides Mastodon
[https://www.gog.com/forum/general/unofficial_dvd_covers_for_gog_com_games])
Here’s some examples:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/d0078e28-a5bd-42a0-ab76-490fd2cb9fea.webp]
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/9d0d69c9-9235-4963-b0bc-dcf87002978a.webp]
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/fc9853f4-ce0c-4f95-9e80-3bfdecada243.webp] I
think its an improvement. Do you?
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Quick-fire
two Interesting things: # Project Hailstorm:
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/c8dd1599-1f94-4c02-a44c-694c2e717eb3.gif] I
found a nice game made by a indie developer called Project Hailstorm: a small 15
minute title which is made with a specific Steam Deck settings preset so it
plays nicely on there, too.
[https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/07a7d5d9-ae7b-4f06-a4cc-00d22124836b.gif] The
developer shared it stating they’re doing their best to make it look and feel
like it is a AAA atmosphere. Its also free! There’s no cloud saves (nor does
there need to be, tbh), and no achievements - but do yourselves a favor and
install it. It gives a great impression that you are there: “𝘚𝘵𝘦𝘱 𝘪𝘯𝘵𝘰

DLC: [https://lemmy.world/pictrs/image/a85f68ab-db5b-4fbf-b753-e0ff3cd9280f.png]
Dave the Diver releases another FOMO DLC - this one is Like a Dragon themed, and
limited to 6 months. Shitty. The dev has sworn this time that it will be the
last time they release FOMO DLC (the last being Godzilla themed)
------------------------------------------------------------------ # What have
you been playing? Just curious about what you’ve all been playing lately! You
might be used to me asking this, if you’re not new to my posts. I just like to
get an idea - its like pop-psychology: match the username to the game titles.
I’ve still been playing Death Stranding on my Steam Deck, because it’s my
absolute love. I love the setting and the atmosphere, and the music they hold
back for the more important moments you don’t realize are important until you
hear the sounds and…take the time to look around. And on my Switch I’ve actually
been playing Fitness Boxing 3. Since I’m traveling and in hotel suites, I’m just
doing my own thing, and that game really can make your heart rate push up! I
can’t see myself as some uber-boxing-girl with this alone, but it’s been fun.
So…what have you been playing?
------------------------------------------------------------------ # Finally?
Sorry this isn’t quite as themed or detailed as I typically post here! Being
abroad and between places means I’ve been a lil scattered this time. But I do
hope you’re all well, and having fun gaming! Pinkie-swear next one will be back
to normal. And - as always, any errors or formatting issues, anything awful,
that’s all on me! If you do want to add me to Mastodon too, I typically post
there each day! You can find me here:

I've spent WAY too much time arguing with an anti-EV nob on #Lemmy over the last few days.
I just eyebrow raised over someone claiming removal of #Ghiblitheft #AI images on #Mastodon was censorship.
I think Fedi has "arrived" folks. The #trolls are here. They are small in numbers for sure, but given the echo chambers places like #Xitter must be now, and FB hopefully has less active users given how hate speech is now actively approved there, then some shitheads have gone looking for a fight with ethical people elsewhere.
Sigh.

vanta rainbow black created a #lemmy community for #writerdeck stuff!!! :3
lemmy.blahaj.zonewriterdecks! - Blåhaj Lemmylemmy community for writerdecks! >What is a writerDeck? > >A writerDeck is a
device dedicated specifically and solely to writing. Technically, a typewriter
is an analog writerDeck. But usually we mean some sort of computerized word
processor, such as the Astrohaus Freewrite or the Alphasmart Neo, to name two of
the most popular mass-produced versions. But these tend to be either too
expensive or too limited for many writers, so many of us build our own. > >The
term “writerDeck” comes from “cyberDeck”. People argue over what counts as a
cyberDeck, but in practice it basically means “a weird cobbled together
computer, usually without a mouse and usually homemade, often with a
retro-futuristic, cyberpunk vibe.” So a writerDeck is just a cyberDeck dedicated
to writing. for more info visit https://www.writerdeck.org/
