Ohh so that's what it was lol, I'd assumed it was auto saving at first as well but got confused when it didn't seem to generate an actual new save slot. At any rate, I reckon it's a good thing it was generous enough that I didn't even register it had limits in place to begin with.

Looking forward to the crew interactions too, seems ripe for a fun time since the game doesn't take itselt too seriously and they all look interesting and seem to have fun abilities.

I've played several, mostly games I've been following so no huge surprises. My highlights were:

Lies of P
Great soulslike built on a grim take on Pinocchio. Borrows a lot from Bloodborne, oppressive and interesting world, satisfying combat.

Sea of Stars
Super charming JRPG I've been looking forward to for a while, great pixel art, fun combat system with timed hits, great music.

LunarLux
Very similar to a Mega Man Battle Network game, but combat leans more towards the turn based side of the spectrum. Has some Undertale influences as well. The art being as cute as it is might turn some off, but it's a plus for myself.

Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew
Strategy game from the folks behind Shadow Tactics and Desperados. You control undead pirates with unique and fun abilities, and the game encourages you to rewind time as needed to experiment and play around.

Honorable mentions go to Eternights and Viewfinder. Fantastic games all around, the following months are looking great!

Damn, that's impressive. You've got me beat there for sure!

Thanks, actually it made a big strides towards being less hierarchical, you can put everything in a folder and use internal links now, plus it has relationship links that are very useful some times.

Ah, good to know!

Regarding it using a database instead of a file system it has a bunch of pros but has its cons too, in my opinion there should be a feature were you can use both and if you use the file system in one of your notes, the note is less powerful so that you can use both the database and the the file system.

Yeah, I 100% understand and respect the reasoning behind doing it that way but it's just not something I can get fully behind myself. As a developer myself, I wouldn't want to support both code paths so I also get why it isn't really a priority.

Lastly the phone app is a bit of a sore point for me too, I just write stuff in markdown and then import them in as soon as I can.

That's fair, do you just use something like Obsidian or GitJournal? I need to look into those at some point.

That all said, I think I'm entrenched too deeply into my current solution to reconsider but I might spin up an instance to check it out. Thanks for the heads-up!

Node-RED is amazing! I find it strikes such a good balance between usability and user friendliness, been using it for automations alongside Home Assistant for a while. Outside of the usual IoT scenarios, you can also use it kinda like Android's Tasker if you get creative enough, as in for general purpose automation. Closest alternative of sorts I've found for PCs so far.

I remember using it to expose my (dumb) keyboard's RGB lighting as a controllable entity within Home Assistant at some point lol, that was a convoluted setup. Had a Windows PC where Node-RED would call a DIY python script that would then use a library to interface with the keyboard. I then managed to wire that up to HA somehow. Fun little project, for sure.

I used it for a while and right up to the point I actually set it up to give it a go, I'd never even heard of it before. Definitely feels like it flies under the radar.

I loved the idea behind it, but a few points ended up sticking out so I ended up dropping it at some point. Namely, I didn't like the markdown editor much, plus it was very awkward to use on mobile (which, granted, is an issue with most competitors). I also don't like how it's dabatase based, vastly prefer using local markdown files. Plus, it's more of a personal thing but I came to prefer graph based implementations better than hierarchical ones. Still, really impressive project and I very much appreciate that it's open source and fully self hostable, not much in the way of competition there when it comes to second brain alternatives.

After exploring a few options, I've ended up on Logseq. Shame that one isn't self hostable, not fully anyway, since last I checked you still need to open a local folder even if you do host it yourself.

Sweet, definitely not a type of implementation I'd expect on top of the fediverse so that makes it even cooler!
Looks super well thought out, especially love the robust import feature and federated book metadata. I'll have to check it out sometime soon.

Not specific to Lemmy but ubuntu's weird snap version of docker has given me random issues in the past, perhaps that could be the issue. Installing docker by following the official instructions means you are guaranteed to get a fully functional install and that's one variable you wouldn't have to worry about at least.

Edit: Forgot to mention but I'm running it on docker myself, I just followed the official documentation and whatnot. Using a debian 11 based LXC on Proxmox.

Just checked and was able to get it to install on my end, OP might have updated it in the meantime.

It's a neat project and it definitely helps in specific cases, but I don't think it'll change much when it comes to the overall picture because it'd still require coordinated effort by the folks managing their discord servers.
Server admins/mods would have to go out of their way to manually set this up so it's effectively opt-in, and I have a hunch there isn't much of an overlap between people who care about open, searchable discussions and people who choose to host them on discord servers. Maybe for discoverability's sake? Not sure.

I gotta say, upon closer inspection Yunohost looks way more elegant and complete a solution than I was picturing. Figured it'd mostly be premade apps ready to install but there's also built-in LDAP + email, let's encrypt certificates, integrated security features, the list goes on and on. If the execution is even remotely as smooth as the documentation suggests, Yunohost sounds great!

Yeah, new season looks like last season part 2 which is fine honestly considering their business model but I hope the next one mixes things up a little harder

P.S.: To the bone!
