Mini-PCs are so underrated. They're so much better than those crappy all-in-one PCs as they are much more repairable and can even be mounted to monitors to serve the same function. Plus, they're perfect for home servers or emulation boxes.
Also, it's just nice not to be doing 100% of my computing on laptops.

>Mastodon is just the most feature rich variant.
That's not true. Pleroma (and it's forks) have emoji reactions, shoutbox, BBCode and LaTeX formatting, WEBP support, and multiple front-ends.
The only reason I'm using a Mastodon server is that this is the only gaming related server (Mastodon or otherwise) that isn't block happy.
And I wouldn't recommend switching to Pleroma or Misskey as it would probably break federation (notice how Mastodon URLs have the @ symbol in them while Pleroma doesn't). Though if you want those features, Qoto's Mastodon fork includes some of them.
@kirch@tilde.zone I am not very politically neutral. But I do disagree with this statement.
I am not a fan of "You're either with us or you're against us" type arguments. They only fuel the culture war even more and increase the amount of segregation in our society.

>It's like you insist on bringing the negatives of Twitter and other platforms to Mastodon.
Literally the creator of Mastodon dubbed it "Twitter without the Nazis" and also wants you to forget that the entire network is actually the Fediverse and Mastodon is just a specific software package for running an instance. The whole idea was that smaller servers are easier to moderate and people would only federate with servers that share similar rules.
Yeah, the server I'm using is also running on Mastodon, but there is a reason why the servers that don't block you are running something else, like Pleroma, Akkoma, Misskey, or GNU Social.
Notification sent to me:
"mastodon.online reported "
.. some Russian propaganda shit...
Seriously- the hypocrisy of reporting people is getting old. It's like you insist on bringing the negatives of Twitter and other platforms to Mastodon. I get 'reporting' content to one degree or another when it comes to content that could get an instance shut down (maybe even spam), but even that is often only for those hosting in extremist regions like Europe, China, and the Middle East. Better solution: Stop hosting your shit there.
We believe in freedom of speech here and don't censor minority opinions on this instance including ones we don't like or agree with nor propaganda from political adversaries including the "left", the "right", and others except possibly where it may be something that is illegal and would threaten the instance's existence.
I realize 98% of the population can't think for themselves, but come on. This is just getting old. If you can't be an adult ... I don't know what to tell you. Go back to your echo chamber and just block our instance I guess.

>I wouldn't be surprised if another mainline Zelda is coming soon.
I thought it's been confirmed that Monolith Soft is working on the next one.
>Fox was in the Mario Galaxy movie too.
Or it could be just to create hype for the movie itself because who doesn't like a good crossover.
The reason why I am so critical about the Star Fox 64 and Ocarina of Time remakes on the Switch 2 is because I feel like N64 nostalgia hit it's peak almost a decade ago (just from people talking about it on YT among other places). It feels like Nintendo is jumping in on the bandwagon way too late, and they already done it once on the 3DS anyway.
It seems like more people are nostalgic for the GameCube, GBA, Wii, and DS right now. As much as people don't want to admit it, it's true. The GC and Wii Zelda's have already been ported to recent consoles, and I don't see them remaking Minish Cap as Capcom was also involved, but maybe it's an opportunity to remake Phantom Hourglass and Spirit Tracks and make them less shit.
[2/2] also prohibit reporters from using anonymous accounts to follow what others are posting or enable sources to contact them.
"Age verification" requirements threaten to identify whistleblowers. They generally require that all users of a site prove their identities, or present video selfies which governments could use to identify them. Any attempt by a whistleblower to contact a reporter through a site that does age verification is likely to enable tyrannical rulers to identify per and crush per. This will
