- Abzu - hated the underwater movement controls
- Deponia & MechaNika - the protagonist is an asshole
- Papers Please - too stressful (works well as a piece of art, but wasn't an enjoyable experience)
I'm a graphic designer, and it could be interesting for working on CMYK files and actually see them as they would look on paper.
I think this is their attempt to EEE (Embrace, Extend, Extinguish) the Fediverse, so I'm strongly in favour of immediately defederating corporate instances as soon as they are created.
I want to be able to ban/hide entire servers. Regularly seeing lemmynsfw celebrity communities pop up in All/Hot :| (I have nsfw disabled, so it's just generic photos of random women.)
Also an option would be nice to hide downvoted posts, I had that on in RES.
OpenStreetMap is a joy to behold and fun to edit too, but for me where it really falls behind is its route planner :/ Google Maps lets us plan with public transport, shows multiple route options with journey times, and lets us edit walking paths by just dragging the line. OSM desktop doesn't seem to have any of these features.
Not only copycats, but there's an Indian musician who has apparently been using almost 100% the same logo for the past two years.
My high school class was in mid-'00s, and there was one girl who very much had that butch/tomboy vibe going on. I drifted away from the class, so only heard rumours after graduation, but I think she never actually came out as anything. On the other hand three others of us (two of whom, including myself, I never would have guessed back in high school) eventually came out as various shades of queer :D
I'm happy for your realisation, OP!
For me it was homophobic and ableist slurs as general words for "bad". It's very common in my native society, so after I started learning more about social justice issues, it took a few years to wean myself off.
Also, looking back, I realise now that in middle school I was lowkey cruel to some classmates, manipulated them for my own amusement. I was never one to bully others, but I was often a bystander entertained by others being bullied. (Even though I was being bullied myself by the same people on other occasions. But I somehow never made that connection with their other victims, I guess my empathy wasn't fully developed back then. Or maybe it was a mental self-defence mechanism, idk.)
I've been a Firefox main since before it was even called Firefox :D
As much as it lagged behind in speed in the early days of Chrome, back then Chrome didn't have anywhere near to Firefox's amazing selection of addons, many of which were essential to my workflow.
That also meant that I hated Firefox's switch to WebExtensions, as it gutted most of the addons I used at the time, and it took them many years to get back as many features as possible (which of course has never been all the original features).
I even switched to Firefox ESR, then when that dropped support too, to Waterfox for a few years to retain the ability to use classic addons. But eventually it became too much hassle, and I have been a Firefox mainbranch user again since 2021 :)
For the handful of websites that only work in Chrome (or when I need to test my own websites), I've been using Brave in recent years. It's weirdly into crypto nonsense, but at least those features can be disabled. But if anyone knows a better Google-less Chromium browser, pls let me know!
Not that advanced, but two things I found useful:
- If you're in a country that blocks torrent websites but not trackers (eg. UK), visit the sites via Tor browser.
- Rutracker.org and Rutracker.ru are surprisingly not blocked in the UK and have lots of good software. They're BBCode-style forums, so fairly obvious how to navigate/search them even if you don't speak Russian. If you want to read the description or comments of a specific torrent, pop the page into google translate.
Oh RSS feed is a good idea. The only sub I still check is r/Genshin_Impact_Leaks xd
Edit: Anyone knows a better free web-based RSS reader than Feedly? It kept sending me to its paid service for trying to sub to a Reddit feed, until I subbed to it via SiftRSS D:
