You can run your own relay, though:

I do prefer Activitypub overall, and it’s certainly more mature, but any efforts towards decentralization should be encouraged/celebrated.

They’ve followed through on their promises so far, and you can actually self-host pretty much the whole stack today:

I’d perfer for mastodon to take off personally, but really at this point both are good options and worlds better than twitter.

Hey, sorry I missed this. Not sure what’s going on with that - the post you’ve got there is deleted though.

Unfortunately, it looks like both Sync and Jerboa do not yet support the backend changes made in version 0.19 🙁

I didn’t really want to upgrade to 0.19-rc yet because I was worried that something like this would happen, but the CSAM/Moderation problem has come up often enough that I felt it was safer to have the better moderation tools and risk some breakage.

Hopefully Sync and Jerboa will be updated soon, as 0.19 should have it’s full release any day now. If you’re willing to try some other mobile apps in the meantime, here are some that are already 0.19 compatible:

Memmy

Voyager

Thunder

Apologies for the inconvenience. 🙇

possumpat.io is the instance this community is hosted on. It’s a (bad) domain name joke😅

We’re set on moderators for now, though thanks for your interest.

Welcome! It’s a bit slow around here compared to reddit but the vibes are chill. 😎

I love cbu3 leaning into the Phoenix as their mascot, glad we’re finally getting the coil version as a mount.

It’d been a while since they put one of these on because of Covid, but apparently they’re always a bit of a mess.

Had a pretty great time! Was nice seeing online friends in person. The event itself was poorly managed though😅

Pretty much same experience here. I had some fun with it as an overwatch replacement for a couple weeks after launch, but it was pretty rough around the edges and the monetization was… yeah.

Not surprised they’re killing it already, maybe someday Bandai will give us an actually good Gundam game again. From Software is making more Armored Core in collaboration with Bamco already, I’d love to see them take the IP and do something with it.

Soon as I find some time to figure out lemmy bots, I’d like to automate this kind of thing - unless you want to keep doing it manually! 😅

Kamille, listen, who cares if your name is a girl’s name. And it is, Kamille. It is. But it doesn’t have to–put down the ball–it doesn’t have to define you because you can CHANGE it, Kamille. Buy a mask or some sunglasses and call yourself WHATEVER you want. People are idiots. Also it’s pronounced BAH-JEEN-AH. Of course I know how it SOUNDS, Kamille. I’m not an IDIOT. I’m a drunk who makes poor choices. Let’s see you stay off the sauce after your first few war crimes, Kamille. Let’s see how sober YOU are. Now shut up and get back in the cockpit.

That aspect of ffxiv is one of my favorite things about it - there’s almost no fomo / season pass shenanigans (outside of pvp). I’ve been playing since the 2.X days and the way everything is designed around playing at your own pace has really made it easy to enjoy over the years.

me rn under a blanket at my desk doing server maintenance.

I hope they never stop producing these, I need a full shelf of xiv lore.

Woah, this is great!

Both types of discussion are welcome here - if this ever grows large enough that we need to split the “hardcore” crowd into their own community, we’ll cross that bridge when we get there.

The REAL real tragedy would be losing r/shitpostxiv 🤣

Media criticism is welcome here, so long as everyone is respectful. Art is inherently subjective - people are going to like different things for different reasons, and it’s okay to say you didn’t enjoy something.

I’d discourage low effort discussion though. Instead of saying “Voyager sucks” let’s try “Voyager didn’t work for me because it was too episodic” (not a criticism I personally have, just an example).

I’d suggest reviewing the posting guidelines in the sidebar, and if anyone gets nasty or you see harassment feel free to file a report or shoot me a DM.

Wow, those colors look fantastic. I’ve been debating on getting an airbrushing setup, have any reccomendations?

My HG Aerial is in the mail and I can only hope it comes out looking half this nice.

I was first introduced to Trek many many years ago by my dad - I probably owe most of my sci-fi fandom to him growing up watching TNG, DS9 and later Enterprise. If you asked him though, he is probably a bigger fan of Farscape and Stargate. 🤣
