Seems to be some server weirdness so replying with my alt.

I am rather confused about this reply! To clarify, I unironically find it cute, and was making a light hearted post to comment on it. Did you intend to reply to someone else?

HROT! Quake styled retro fps. I am enjoying it :)

I think replying to every single point you made would be way off topic, so I’m not going to.

What I will respond to is your very first comment. The far right, worldwide (not just republicans) is practically frothing at the mouth about trans people lately. Their rhetoric is borderline genocidal, with open calls to “exterminate transgenderism”. No civil discussion can be had when one of the sides is literally out for blood.

There are many issues that you can take many perfectly reasonable differing opinions on, and have a civil discussion over, but this isn’t one of them.

Sounds like it will be a good trip! Have fun :D

It’s good. I’m on a lemmy instance too, not sure which I prefer, but so far more active here. I appreciate that it doesn’t really matter which I use.

My understanding is, a community doesn’t start federating until someone on your instance kicks it into motion, usually by searching for it (as you have just done). From that point onwards, posts from that community are shared with your instance, but it doesn’t go backwards in time.

This is my impression, but hopefully someone else will chime in.

I had this same problem. Try looking it up over here: https://kbin.social/search possibly without the ! mark, not sure.

I think the magazines list only shows magazines/communities that have already federated. But, search kicks that into motion if it hasn’t started already.

I support it. Literally the entire purpose of living in a society vs. as hermits, is so that we can help one another out. Lets do more of that.

Yeah, smileys are rad =^.=

I like emojis too though 🥳.

Like a good wine pairing :)

We cycle between Plate Up!, Unrailed, and Helldivers in my household :) Other people have already mentioned them, but big +1 on all 3.

That did it! Thank you :D

I was looking under https://kbin.social/magazines, good to know I should use the search instead :)

I usually do, but sometimes I forget 😅

I hear you, but politics are literally unavoidable. Also, for some of us, especially members of minority groups conservatives have it out for right now, literally just existing openly in a space will sometimes have folks crying politics.

The first computer my family had was a really old one with MS DOS. First game was either Nibbles, or a weird platformer called Dark Ages (can’t remember which I tried first).

Cool idea! Do me :D

Last few years have been rough. Things seem to be turning around lately though (new job, etc). Do the cards have any advice to keep the improvements coming?

I’m happy for you, or sorry that happened. When stuck on hold I just like to close my eyes and dream about horsies

Very nice!

ATLA is awesome. Worth enjoying at any age.

I’ve got a decent collection of stuff animals. They’re nice.

I’m interested in this too. I’ve blocked a couple of domains, and that helps, but now and then they still pop up.
