Even if the messages are end to end encrypted I wouldn’t trust a third party with that data (unless it was a company that does it for a living.)

I’d probably recommend running your own instance, I imagine for that few users it would be pretty cheap. Though maintenance is probably the biggest issue there.

Or just use a third party Matrix server but send client info over email using GPG keys. That would cost you nothing.

I’m not sure if I have bad luck but every time I’ve tried Ubuntu I’ve had stability issues. Constant crashes and things I’ve never run into in other distros.

It makes it hard for me to recommend it to new users.

Didn’t that end up being illegal for them to do or something so they had to go back on the rule?

Edit: I only realize now that I am responding to a 7 month old thread that was at the top of ‘Hot’. Lemmy’s algorithm is confusing.

I’m not sure why government employees can even use their work phones to install personal applications. Isn’t the whole point of a work phone using it for work?

I imagine that a bunch of these employees are just not buying a personal device and using their work provided ones as their main device (I see the same in the corporate world as well.)

#DropKiwifarms works to end the relationship between far-right hate forum Kiwi Farms and the digital service providers that keep Kiwi Farms active online

Is KF even far right? I was always under the impression it was just an extension of 4chan focused on gossip about minor e-celebrities.

Not that I support Kiwi Farms, but I just find applying the “far right” label to everything offensive kind of loaded at this point.

I think that’s fair. Though I do think fizzling out is kind of in the spirit of a proper Lovecraft horror.

I don’t think it’s that short if you factor in the completion aspect. Getting both endings took me 7 hours, and completing will probably be another 12 if I choose to go that route.

For $25 I don’t think it’s that bad, but I’m pretty biased in preference of quality to quantity.

Been playing through Dredge this weekend, it’s an awesome game for Deck. Very pick up and play

While this is true, ProtonDB has even better numbers than Valve so it’s still a win for the topic.

From Kbin you can subscribe to whatever sublemmies you’re interested in as if they were magazines.

You could also do the same in reverse from Beehaw/Lemmy.world, but KBin currently doesn’t federate properly (due to Cloudflare DDoS protection.)

This looks super cool. I’m very excited to play it! Crazy to think it’s only a few months away.

I’m hoping it runs well on Steam Deck, seems like it’ll be a great game to play from the couch.

Note for others reading this (not applicable to OP) but glass protectors aren’t recommended for the 512GB model. It clashes with the anti-glare coating on the screen and causing the picture to become fuzzy.

If you’re on a 64/256 though definitely consider investing in a matte glass screen protector

If you like horror Outlast Trials is pretty good. It’s a little short on content (there are 9 unique missions) but the experience is well worth the money, I’m hoping they add new content soon.

Communities -> Search, make sure you are on ‘All’ (so you aren’t just searching communities local to your instance)

Seems like pathfinder.social is an instance dedicated to Pathfinder communities.

Edit: I should also add, there’s a pinned post “This community is not for support!”, there’s a specific [email protected] for these kinds of questions.

Beehaw had the same issue until a few hours ago so I assume it’s a load issue.

This isn’t the case for me. I have a bunch of lemmy.ml subscriptions pending, and none of them show up on my subscription feed. Hopefully this is fixed soon

I went to see the orchestral tour live in Chicago, it was amazing! Really fantastic soundtracks.

Jerboa has seen huge improvements in the last two weeks alone. I think there’s been a lot of traction on that front, and the dev seems particularly receive to feedback.

I’m enjoying Boltgun a lot, but the year was so jam packed I couldn’t fit it into my list.

If you liked Boltgun I’d recommend checking out Cultic: Chapter One, it’s probably my favorite overall ‘boomer shooter’.

SFVI you mean? Either way, I can’t really speak to it since I don’t engage with the single player stuff; I focus more on the competitive and social aspects.

That being said from what I’ve heard people really like World Tour, there’s a decent tutorial and training mode and the combo trials will help you learn what kind of things your character can do.
