I don’t know if this is the kind of feature that really fits Lemmy. I feel like it would be better suited as part of a video streaming platform or a stand alone piece of software. Owncast is a self hosted live streaming platform. Just keep in mind that you will essentially be running an IPTV service, which broadcasters really don’t like and if it gets big enough you might get a knock on your door.

You might enjoy Hilda if you like Bluey. Those are my two comfort shows.

Aren’t the initial sounds exactly why you’re right? Like I thought that was the main reason people think the creator is wrong…

Balatro. It becomes a spreadsheet sim very quickly, in my opinion. I think part of the reason Binding of Isaac and Hades feel much more timeless to me is that every run has this sort of intuitive randomness vs this just full rng you have to counter with math. Balatro feels solved, and while I guess you could count Hades max heat run as “solving” the game, the replayability of it feels much higher because builds feels more dynamic than “make number go up faster”.

I don’t like the dev. If you want more details I can maybe go find sources, but yeah… I no longer want to support the software.

And I was too lazy to go edit my config to suppress the donation request popup, so completely refactoring my system was the obvious, lower effort, answer 🤣

Just finished my basic niri install on NixOS. Seriously loving it. Had been wanting to ditch Hyprland for a while, but kept hitting walls with tutorials and blogs trying to convince me to use flakes and home manager. Finally last night I sat down and completely rewrote my config to just be simple default config style and got niri working. Feels like the window manager experience I’ve been dreaming of my whole life.

Feeld is a half decent dating app for this, but I really hate suggesting a platform that still tries to rope in into a subscription by praying on insecurities around not getting many matches. But it seems like people are pretty open with what they are looking for, and it’s a pretty diverse platform.

Second for Owncast. Pretty much the only thing I know of. Or maybe screen share in a shelf hosted Revolt server?? With permissions it should be pretty easy to set up a chat only room where the person streaming is the only one that can stream and speak.

If you liked this maybe check out Hi-Fi Rush. Very good third person fighting rhythm game.

Spotify’s payment model also adds a ton of bias to their suggestions. Artists need to hit a threshold number of listens a month to get paid at all, so Spotify ends up just suggesting music from artists they are already paying, rather than letting other folks hit that threshold. It’s also why the “shuffle” feature never actually shuffles a whole playlist before starting to repeat songs. If you really pay attention the songs that get repeated by the shuffle algorithm are the ones from bigger artists to try and keep smaller groups from getting paid at all.

Please let this be your sign to start ditching corporate platforms across the board. Enshitification will come for your pristine app experience eventually. Go spend your Spotify monthly bill on one album every month from bandcamp or something. Own your own media. Share it with friends. GET OFF CORPO AD PLATFORMS! I realize this is the fediverse, so people are already kind of on board, but I think music streaming is often given a pass, or sneaks by our focus when discussing these issues.
