I believe this is extremeRate's full shell replacement. Actually pretty affordable, about $40 after tax. I've heard it takes 2-3 hours to do though. Personally I'd keep the black dpad and buttons

ProtonDB for Decky is a great tool to check how compatible a game is with Proton, even gives it a score

[–] gus@kbin.social 4 points 2 years ago (2 children)

It's a plugin for Decky which is a free 3rd party plugin manager. Goto decky.xyz from your deck and download file, make sure to run it from your desktop. Then go back to game mode and hit the "..." button to access it

This plugin is HLTB for Deck. They're also using SteamGridDB to get the custom D4 art and the game's metadata. Game Theme Music, vibrantDeck, and ProtonDB are all musts as well

I'd definitely pick it up during the Summer Sale. With the DLC coming out soon and rumors of it being a soft relaunch of a lot of stuff, it's likely they'll keep it out of deep sales for a while

Tears of the Kingdom without a doubt so far. Enjoyed every second of it.

Honorable mentions are Hi-Fi Rush, RE4 Remake, Diablo 4 - even Jedi Survivor (especially if it didn't run like shit).

And I fully expect Starfield, Spiderman 2, and Baldur's Gate 3 to give TOTK a run for its money. Honestly a great year for gaming despite some shitty PC ports.

You're confusing "do not massively defederate" with "do not defederate at all"

We should defederate from obviously problematic instances. We should not defederate in the fashion that beehaw is

Defederating from problematic instances that are promoting illegal activity that would attract the FBI is a bit different from "Defederate, massively".

Intentionally or not you're making it sound like if we don't follow beehaw's lead the FBI is going to be after ernest, who lives in a different continent and even has the project partially funded on a grant

I just gave Cassette Beasts a shot and was instantly hooked. Fun PokeClone that is one of the best I've played and gets some stuff better than even Pokemon does. Also on gamepass if you've got that

I disagree. I really think closing ourselves off to a bunch of places goes against the spirit of the fediverse. I want to be getting content from a lot of places which I can then filter out and control myself, and I feel like kbin supports that mindset well. I understand why some would want to defederate and close themselves off, but I don't want kbin.social turning into beehaw. If you're looking for a more controlled instance, join them

These platforms are still pretty early in their infancy and I don't think they were quite mature enough to take on this sudden influx of users (through no fault of anyone). There's going to be some growing pains but we'll get through it and this platform will get better from it

Retro Bowl is fucking amazing. Really the only mobile game I've played a lot of

Totally unrelated to this discussion but my curiosity got me:

beehaw users will see an altered version that hides/removes lemmyworld posts.

What would it look like for someone on beehaw if the comment chain went like this: kbin comment>lemmy.world comment>kbin comment? Would beehaw still see the 3rd comment? Or will it kill everything after the lemmy.world comment, kbin or not?

I don't believe there's a native way to do this unfortunately. Currently you can only search for other communities (magazines) specific to your kbin instance. As @ChrV noted there are ways to do this via 3rd party

However, once you find a community from another compatible instance you can search for it through kbin.social and subscribe to it. Like searching for "mildlyinfuriating@lemmy.world" without quotes in the search bar will let you subscribe to the mildlyinfuriating community on lemmy.word and the content will show up under kbin.social/sub
