I never tried anything other than old.reddit.com. And I’ll never try the dreadful reddit app. Redesign has always been trash and terrible at loading content and pushes trash topics at users.

I’ve preferred firefox on Android, since it doesn’t refresh on me when I minimize it as often as other browsers.

Nice. Sort of sets a low end standardized hardware baseline companies can try to get working knowing there’s that many units out there. Even if it doesn’t end up running great on the Steam Deck some attempts at optimization for it could help better hardware.

It’s so weird that Google’s phone has been the most accessible for unlocking your phone. Oneplus used to be good too, but then they became bad in that area too and now custom rom scene seems dead for newer Oneplus phones.

Yeah like others asked can you elaborate on what you were being censored for? I haven’t had issues with being censored by reddit and just started using lemmy due to wanting an alternative to try after the third party api change.

So I am curious what exactly you are posting that is getting censored if it was also considered bad enough on reddit.

I think it was mainly about games releasing with 30 or 60 fps hard caps back in the day than graphics being held back.

It’s been interesting seeing the commotion about the performance requirements for Alan Wake 2, but I’m fine with it due to it not being something I’m planning to buy any time soon if ever with it being an epic exclusive.

Most likely way I’ll end up playing it is years later if it is given away, which by then I’ll probably have upgraded hardware.

After I got my Steam deck I’ve run lot of games at 40 fpz even if they can run at 60 fps since it’s been a good balance of smoothness and battery life. But, 30 I refuse to do.

I thought that wasn’t great particularly in the over world where it made it look like your character was Sonic with it looking blurry when they weren’t even moving fast.

Most people when they talk about motion blur mean one that applies it to everything. Most games don’t even have per object motion blur that it’s not even ubiquitous enough to assume that is what is being talked about. Especially if you are talking of console games from last gen when 30 fps was the standard.

It makes sense for 30 fps capped games, since even consoles with the best frame timing and locked 30 fps feel and look terrible without motion blur to smooth things out. That’s pretty much the few instances motion blur is needed, but once a minimum of 40 fps is hit that isn’t needed.

Even object based I found myself disabling in like third person game if they applied it to the character model too with movement coming across blurry. I prefer crisp visible animations overall.

Especially for steam deck. Wish there was an option to have a community preset you choose replace the settings.

Even if I wanted to since the death of third party apps I haven’t had a reason to use or have a reddit account. I didn’t care enough to bother with the work around to get them working either. Glad rss still works, but pretty much why messages like that are news I find out through here.

I’d love to see that happen. At the very least security updates. It’s a shame when a device stops getting updates rendering it an insecure device despite the hardware still being capable of quality performance. Especially with phones costing more than laptops.

Yeah, I would prefer being able to do a back up image of the phone and save it to my computer and then hand it in after doing a factory reset. Then just restore it when I get the phone back. Android sucks in this department compared to Apple.

Mobile games don’t become as lucrative as it is without mtx. People understand the business reason, but it doesn’t mean it shields it from criticism. Doesn’t need defending either, since as you said money is enough to not care. You don’t really start doing that stuff if you care about perception, so I say good for them monetarily speaking. But, that’s the extent of my praise.

Personally I avoid videos with variations of the open mouth, confused face, and disappointed look these days. It’s just the area of YouTube I’ve gotten tired of, and those videos usually tend to be pretty shilly playing to the algorithm and tend to be from bigger channels. I understand why its done, but it doesn’t shield from criticism. Anyways good for them, but it has manifested in a way where because the algorithm is what dictates the product it feels like AI in a way where the presentation style gets tiring.

Yeah, just setting a bookmark would make it easy to follow the subs you are interested in. If it is the old.reddit interface you want can just set it to like old.reddit.com/r/sub1+sub2+sub3+sub4. Or get the old reddit redirect extension that will automatically turn any reddit links into the old reddit interface.

I definitely do not wish to see a push towards content that is created for the purposes of trying to monetize or self promote for the purposes of making money. The shilling is the worst part of lot of plarforms because of corporate interests that need to recoup costs or want to have a successful IPO so leads to inevitable ways to monetize users and monetizing users.

Leave the popular crowd drawing shills on the corporate platforms. While it would be nice for the fediverse to have more niche thriving communities if it means becoming filled with shills then at that point why even bother with the fediverse.
