I didn't think people would sign up for tiktok when I first saw it flooding reddit /r/all full of Chinese clips. But, it ended up catching on on so I wouldn't be surprised to see bilibili seeing the same success. Won't make an account for it though like I didn't for tiktok, but what I usually avoid turns popular.

Chances of me buying from them died years ago when they paid to pull Metro Exodus from being released on Steam.

I will take the free games though. I like free. Keep those coming I'll claim them.

You can use redlib instances

https://github.com/redlib-org/redlib#instances

You can subscribe and filter out subs. Go into settings and you can set the UI to wide so text fills the width of the screen like old.reddit instead of wasted side padding.

And you can save your settings by copying some text that is generated to use across various redlib instances and have your subscriptions and filters set without having to set up it manually again.

There's too many games even if you limit it to only well known triple a titles to get around to buying and playing.

Not surprising with how much the cost and barrier to entry to make and release games has gotten. Most challenging thing now is to get noticed.

I don't think China would be naive to think a US company would actually comply. Even regular people don't believe claims of respecting privacy and totally not spying on you assurances.

Surely China can't be fine with the US poking around their government computers? Or are they?

I don't understand how another country can use another hostile country's closed operating system for sensitive material.

Yeah, redlib is great. Can subscribe and filter subs without needing an account, and I think compact + wide setting looks better than default reddit with it looking closer to old.reddit layout without all the wasted side padding.

I guess I better get a 3d printer while I have the chance to before those go up in price too, since I had been wanting one for a while.

I think people here know, but your comment leads people to misinterpret your intention as trying to discourage people from removing deleting stuff from reddit.

[–] steelplatedmech@piefed.ca 1 points 1 week ago

And a human is choosing to remove their comment. A comment they made and decided they don't want to be easily visible anymore.

When I think of razer what comes to mind is overpriced peripherals that break and have annoying software to set them up.

I prefer qmk supported keyboards so I can use via or vial to setup my keyboard.

The whale is so cute! And the light blue is a great color.
