Wow, that actually helps a lot, thanks for the tips. Holding it like you described helps a lot. I can tell this is more like I hold my Steam Deck (a looser grip, especially with the thumbsticks being higher on the Deck).

Yea, it’ll probably be fine in the long run or at night when I’m likely to use it. Gotta finish Baldur’s Gate 3.

I’ve probably spent as much or more money on my Deck than I ever did on Steam, and I haven’t even gotten it yet (tomorrow is shipping day!). The SSD upgrade and SD card alone cost as much as the base Deck (on sale)!

Most of my gaming has been on the Switch or PS5, but I’m excited for some portable PC gaming, emulation, and game streaming to the Deck. I used to be way into PC FPS games when I was younger, so I’m excited that the Steam deck can provide that Mouse & Keyboard feel with the touchpad (and/or gyro).

Doesn’t scratch the same itch yet. I have to cheat and go check out reddit every now and then.

I couldn’t even get pass the login screen since I only lurked and never made an account (despite spending over a decade browsing reddit). I remember they used to let you use the app without logging in.

Maybe we need an extremely strong and centralized non-profit with their own Reddit/Twitter/etc. clone. As long as it’s open data and open source, I don’t really care that it’s centralized. We need some entity with enough resources and trust so they can fend of corporate takeover. My vote is Wikipedia, Mozilla, or Linus Torvalds (I want the man himself, not the Linux Foundation).

Gilmore Girls has plenty of plotlines that can appeal to all peoples. If you can get past the teen romance plots, there’s something for everyone. And there’s always Kirk.

be on kbin instead.

sneak in more reddit for niche subs.

set up an rss reader again.

find more discord communities.

turn off my phone earlier at night.

Third party apps present a username and password field to log into a Lemmy instance. They can easily just steal your credentials. There are standard auth flows to solve this problem. The fact that Lemmy devs have willfully ignored this issue for years, and that they aren’t warning users not to trust third party apps, lead me to believe they don’t really care about security, which is the biggest red flag. There’s finally an open github issue that seems to be acknowledged, but it’ll be some time before this feature (if ever) ever gets implemented.

-Posted from a third-party app; yea, i gave them my password blindly.

I don’t see what the big deal is even. Developers can just continue using the same tooling, and just target a higher graphics budget. Surely Nintendo isn’t so crazy as to introduce some backward incompatible changes?
