Shitposter while I tend to two babies. Maybe when I have my life back, I’ll help us get a few more niche communities back?

  • I think people want to share and be heard so they will speak a bit more than you’d want, but I feel on average it’s neutral and we just put a negative spin on some responses because of our own perception.

    But then again, there will be people who simply hate you for being you (e.g. tankies on .ml), just like any other social media (e.g. maga on X). The flavor of hate people are allowed to spew is based on moderation, and by that metric, I still prefer moderation on the fediverse over most corporate options.

  • Those figures are based on median scores submitted, but it’s not very accurate when it’s a self report because you lose slower people.

    Anyway, you’re also allowed to just enjoy a game, it doesn’t matter how long it takes. I like to take things in, go afk randomly, search all over the place for Easter eggs and such, etc; I usually end up taking longer than those times and I assure you, I’m fantastic at playing games so no, you’re not bad at games. Lol

  • It very much exists, and I second the recommendations for Parsec (for anything) or the network modes in Retroarch, Dolphin, etc (for emulation). The emulators imo work better, and Dolphin even has support for GBA controllers for GameCube stuff like Crystal Chronicles.

    Those have given me the best luck, although my friend used to have terrible lag from being half a world away. Seems to be a little better now, especially with Parsec, but since it’s not client side it’s never going to have perfect ping for very time sensitive things. You’re ultimately doing a low latency stream, so it’s about as good as games played off a stream.
