Sure but the social aspect in games is often pretty toxic.
I played quite a lot of Dota 2 and while communication and cooperation greatly improve your chances of winning… More often then not it was just someone raging hard over minor mistakes.
They can say the same about me, right? I have so many communication apps on my phone, why do I draw the line on Facebook Messenger?
Most likely you’re the only person they know on Signal and it makes more sense to them that you move to Facebook rather than moving their entire friend-sphere into Signal.
First of all normie not an insult or a derogatory term. The term “normies” is often used in many niche communities to refer to someone outside the community. It has nothing to do with being smart, privileged or experienced. It means more like “the average user” or “the typical person”. Example: a person in the boardgaming community may refer to you as a normie, not because you’re dumb but because you don’t play hobby boardgames (check out Brass: Birmingham, what a game).
The problem isn’t about comprehending the problem, most people understand that Facebook is selling their data. They just don’t care. They would rather have their data sold than to have the trouble to move to yet another communication app. WhatsApp is working just fine, Facebook is sparking joy. They don’t care.
“Normies won’t do X” is a perfectly acceptable way to express that the hurdles are too high for the average user. The average user wants a sleek UI, a user friendly experience and most of all they want to be in the place everyone is already at. The average Joe doesn’t want to be the first guy on Simple X, they actually really want the hassle free platform everyone is already at.
Also, the next great communication app is constantly changing. It used to be IRC, ICQ, MSN Messenger, Facebook Messenger, WhatsApp, Instagram, Telegram, Signal, Matrix, Simple X, Session. I’m sorry to say that the average person is not willing to migrate that often. Facebook works, their friends are already there, they stick to it. This isn’t elitism, it’s just stating what I see.
It’s not elitist, it’s realist. They don’t want to install Signal just as much as I don’t want to install Facebook messenger.
Yes you can nag people but it will more often than not have the same effect as when people try to convince me to install Facebook messenger.
If the worst part about Signal is having a third party send you an SMS to confirm your phone number then that’s amazing.
Why are you hating on Ladybird when its not even in alpha stage?
I used to have Mullvad and switched to Proton because I use pretty much their entire suite…
If you don’t need port forwarding, I think Mullvad is superior in everything. Such a great service, highly recommend it.
When I use the linux or web client it asks for a selfie with my ID card when I try to enter a server.
Works fine on Android.
Contacted support, they say my account is not flagged as underage but I have to submit the photo anyway. I told them i won’t.
It’s single thread, one file at a time.
Bad example since lucky literally means good luck.
Is the video catalog larger for paid customers?
I searched for my topics of interest and hobbies but barely got any hit.
Sucks they don’t have a trial period.
I was told the show is very popular in Australia, is that true?
I don’t really mind the contestants outside Europe, I think it’s pretty cool they invited Australia if Australians are indeed fans of the show.
I feel ashamed that my country is not on this list.
Portugal already MBWay, which seems to be similar. MBway is very popular, most people use it.
Wero seems to be unavailable still.
It’s very popular in my country. It’s a good show but in my personal opinion their rigged voting system makes it impossible to enjoy.
I know it has been a while, but thanks for posting this. I really missed the deck tracking and statistics. The overlay is broken but tracking seems to work. Thanks for this.
If you want to create keyboard layouts, keyd is very good for that. You can create several keyboard layers and use whatever key you want as a modifier.
I use it to mimic the windows “US International with dead keys” layout that I’ve grown used to but it can do so much more.
I use keyd
Very customizable.
Not with Hyprland, I had to set a nice chunk of variables to make it work properly.
Dota is not casual at all, it’s quite competitive. It’s the reason the communication is so toxic.
Couch co-op games are very nice but in my personal experience friends don’t make a habit of gathering to play them. It’s a infrequent ocasion, online gaming is much much easier. Boardgames are a cooler experience if you’re gonna have people frequently at your place.
