True, ha ha!

For real on the joycons. I think I’m on my fourth set?

I’m bummed about Spider-Ham. I have him in my deck (and also hate when my opponent uses him to bash one of my good cards), and I guess he needed a rework. But I agree that it seems to defeat the purpose of the card.

I somehow overlooked that the Soul Stone also drew a card, so I guess I won’t miss that feature, ha ha!

I’ve been borrowing ebooks from the library, and having one checked out on my phone helps with the doomscrolling.

Not being on Reddit has definitely improved my mental health.

More reading: books, magazines, newspapers. Also trying to get more exercise.

A lot of the Zelda games, for me. I tried Ocarina of Time and Majora’s Mask and they were not my thing. A lot of people raved about those games but I couldn’t get into them. Then there were a couple on the DS that I couldn’t get into, either.

But then I found Wind Waker and absolutely loved it, and then loved Breath of the Wild and Tears of the Kingdom (so far), too!

As little as possible.

My Nalgene has been with me for at least 16 years and still holding up fine other than the logo/printing wearing off!

Me either. I’m a “normie,” I guess, and it feels unwelcoming and condescending.

I just learned about the whole idea of retro handhelds the other day and I had no idea there were so many options! These look like they would be really fun, but I would have no idea how to load games onto them (because it looks like they don’t use cartridges for the most part?). That’s beyond my tech knowledge, ha ha!

Right? I haven’t signed up for Threads, but I definitely wouldn’t want a feed of random stuff the algorithm wants to show me, instead of people I actually want to follow.

Really enjoyed his book as well. While all the tech stuff was cool, what really impressed me was how much he was able to do by just acting confident and working the people around him. Like calling up companies and asking for information (with just enough insider knowledge) and getting what he needed. The social aspect was really interesting to read about!

I’ve been using Memmy for that Apollo-like experience, ha ha!

I’ve been trying to comment and post way more, too. Feels nice trying to grow/participate in communities instead of just getting lost in a sea of rage bait. So far I’m liking the slower pace and kinder tone here!

I’m really enjoying the vibe of Lemmy so far! Still figuring out how to effectively discover communities on other instances, but I’ll get there eventually.

At this rate there won’t be any mods left to respond to the admins’ feedback request!

The niche subs are the ones I’ve missed the most, honestly. There were some really great little communities on there!

I started noticing a drop in the quality of some subs after the blackout, before the third party apps shut down, too. I suspect a lot more subs are that way now.

I felt like a Reddit old-timer and I have (had?) been on there 12 years, ha ha! Seventeen years is wild! I don’t have much enthusiasm for staying/going back, either.

But hey, they’re “leaders and stewards” of their communities now, and not the landed gentry!
