For sure, and I genuinely don't blame anyone. I've spoken a few times about the difficulty of marketing federated social media.

Also, this place feels like exactly like early Reddit, tech savvy, close-nit, united but also divided. Lemmy will get bigger, diversifying the platform, increasing it's likeability for a wider audience.

"Everyone says you can use any instance with any account so I tried logging in with instance A account on instance B and it doesn't even work."

Words like decentralized, interoperability or federated doesn't mean anything to these people. We need good infographics to convey the idea correctly without misunderstandings.

People are staying away from Lemmy because they don't understand why its different from classic social media. From the outside they see many divided platforms instead of the unifying it's actually doing.

For anything but fast paced, sure maybe, for competitive shooters like this article, absolutely unacceptable. Input lag gets noticeable past 10ms. Jarring past 20ms. Combine that with frame timing inconsistency and more screen tearing, I guess ya'll like watching slideshows.

This video from a while ago found more than 30ms input lag and fps inconsistencies. I'm also reading Directx 12 is optimizing borderless fullscreen and after a quick search did not find new tests.

In post the author did tests and found that it mathers less then it used to, but windows Aero is still running extra composition cycles.

From personal experience I can tell you I've flicked out of bounds many times clicking outside of the game making it lose focus and losing a gunfight because of borderless windowed. YMMV

Amazing, I'm sure you've got many an interesting story to tell being in the field for that long.

Input lag, performance issues and mouse bounds. AFAIK that's still a thing

[–] kernelle@0d.gs 1 points 5 months ago

It used to add quite a bit of input lag and take a hit on performance, and you could always flick the mouse out of the game like in this article. Tbh it was so jarring I haven't tried it in probably a decade.

An issue I have observed on my desktop though is that the mouse likes to leave the screen. I had to set it to Fullscreen, instead of a Borderless Window to get around the issue.

People are still playing on borderless windowed?

📈: Look at my amazing influence over the market!

📉: The market is adjusting, don't be such an alarmist
