Have you tried using the Chat feature (GPT-4) to do searching? I just tried it, and it surprisingly works really well for some inquiries.

Like, use their chat AI, but as a natural language search engine. It’s integrated to Bing’s index so it can peruse it itself, so you don’t have to wade through all the Microsoft click-baits crap they put everywhere.

Android fan here, currently using an iPhone.

You’re not entirely wrong, but you’re missing half the equation. You see, the implementations here actually work fairly decently and feel nice to use. Still took them way too long, and they’re still getting too much credit. But the entire experience is more polished.

That either matters to you or it doesn’t. It didn’t used to for me, so I used Android for years since it’s significantly more customizable and capable.

Now I have multiple computing devices and need my phone to fulfill a more general role, and I’d like that to be an enjoyable experience. So I’m on iPhone again.

Gatekeeping retrogaming is a big L.

The Threads app itself clarifies that the intent is to federate down the road.

What’s the point of blocking a bunch of Linux communities? I agree with your right to do so. Just not sure I see the point.

Windows/Mac/Linux daily user here. We can all exist in harmony.

Yeah, that’s the type of immature and childish response that completely ignores the entire situation I expect from a “troll”.

Pathetic. Have fun with that.

Trolling was pathetic then and it’s pathetic now. Most of us grew out of that phase we had ten years ago.

It’s legit, is sent from the same shortcode that account updates and such get sent from, and their official app also has notices about it.

Don’t really see anything wrong with the way they did it.

The trackpads get slept on heavily for fps games as well. If you get it dialed in just right with motion control at a low sensitivity as well, you can get about as accurate as a mouse honestly.

Now I’ve seen you share a lot of bad takes since I joined this site, but that there is the worst. What a crock of shit.

That’s how I feel. If Meta is going to have social media networks they might as well follow open standards.

Signed up a few days ago, it looks fantastic! Can’t wait to start testing it out.

The official one is disabled right now pending some work by Ernest.

It’s funny, I’ve never thought about the render-ahead queue manipulation being a way to make lower FPS more tolerable.

I don’t mind that the game is targeting 30fps on consoles but man I cannot for the life of me get used to it. I got a Steam Deck and targeting 30fps would let me run more games at native resolution but I haven’t been able to handle the lag and choppiness so I’ve been settling for 40-45.

For me, a lot of it came down to the fact that Epic Games more or less dropped Unreal Tournament 4 to focus on what appeared to be a low effort adaptation of PUBG slapped over another game, and in doing so basically ripped the heart out of deathmatch arena shooters, and all we got out of it was a game that didn’t excel at any specific thing beyond appeal to children.

At this point I’m still sour about UT, but Fortnite has gotten enough updating to its technology and graphics that I’m less angry about it pretty much becoming Unreal Engine’s flagship game and more angry about what it represents. The game has always been fine.

doesn’t Kbin.social block lemmygrad?

I haven’t really cared to check, but I thought it was the only thing it’s defederated from.

I just recently got my Steam Deck and I’ve been playing through GTA IV, as when I bought it my PC ran it like garbage and by the time I got a decent PC, GTA V was the new hot thing. It’s been an amazing experience so far, and after I’m finished with this I’ll probably jump into Red Dead Redemption 2.

At least we have a reason to push through that confusion and try to make the best of what we figure out now.

I wish you luck!

Admittedly the system is a bit confusing as far as UX goes. I’m a fairly nerdy gal and am familiar with servers and software packages and “instances”, and I’m still having issues wrapping my head around the UX.

For example. I’m on Kbin, federated with Lemmy instances. Which is working obviously. But how do I go about discovery of networks and instances and communities within those instances from Kbin? That seems possible but to an uninitiated user, not exactly the simplest thing. None of this is a dealbreaker for me, but what about others? Am I the only one not quite understanding how it all slots together interface wise?
