Try this one. See where you fall. Always interesting to compare across countries as well.

I kinda had to accept that Lemmy wouldn’t have the same hooks to trigger impulsive scrolling because Lemmy isn’t a corporation desperate to mine you for every ounce of data you can provide.

Also took me a while to find a group of communities with content I like.

I sometimes reinstall Reddit just see what’s happening over there, whenever I open it, it feels like I’m being inundated with ads, both obviously and via the ingenuine comment threads.

I use a dock with my steam deck. Highly recommended. I was shocked at how seamless it was as an experience.

I would argue that if you’re an Xbox gamer with no interest in PC and no interest in trying different eco-systems then yes the new ROG Xbox Ally will be your best bet. You might not get quite the same performance as the SteamOS models but you’ll have access to your GamePass, cross-buy library titles if you have any and a familiar interface.

EDIT: Woof, after seeing the ROG Ally Xbox X, there’s no way could I recommend it.

I get what you’re saying…if that were my experience I’d be jack of it too. I’ve got similar spec and am running Nobara which is pretty much Steam OS for people with Nvidia cards. The only thing.

Other than that though I’ve had a great experience that ‘just works’.

I like duck if it’s done properly, but eat kangaroo more often.

That’s monsterous.

Probably worth doing if you can afford it

I remember when I first started working full time. The exhaustion is real. It doesn’t ever really go away but you will eventually learn to live with it.

I just prefer Lemmy. I started exploring Lemmy about 6 months before the API fiasco. The content on Lemmy has just kept improving since.

Lol my country is falling to the fascists. I may as well move to a country that has already fallen to the fascists.
