rob299, to privacy in Google memes itself with an admission of spying on customers via a new ad on reddit!

Ever heard of the game i spy? and with that they are advertising gaming for a Chromebook. This may all just be a coincidence.

While these tech comapnies have people look at the how users might see phrases like “hey guys.” Not sure how Google thought people wouldn’t do the same to them with this. Chromebook’s don’t sell as well so this is the worst product to do the worst with for marketing, but at the same time maybe they really do think this and think they can get away with this meme because no one is really buying a Chromebook unless it’s like for school work. (although I actually do use my personal Chromebook on the daily i’m in that small minority.)

rob299, (edited ) to asklemmy in Has Nintendo lost it's magic or is it just now waking up and making good games again - my thoughts included, but what are the views of Lemy users?

I added into the original post towards the end, my idea of what a real next gen Mario game should look like on the switch. and Nintendo isn’t delivering anything close to that. facts. On the 2d side of things Mario Wonder is a good game, I never did say it was bad. My argument for that game is simply that it was released wayyy too late for me to care, should had been on the Wii U and the fact that it isn’t worth $60 being a very basic 2d game. originally I thought it was $70 but I been corrected.

If Mario Wonder was 2.5 d then we would have a somewhat next gen Mario game because then it would be a real upgrade from the New Super Mario Bros franchise. but Mario Wonder really is just much of the same but with nicer looking colors. oh and new super Mario bros u is still 60 dollars. Why? beats me.

Mario Odeysee is the best Mario game on the switch, people keep thinking that i’m saying it’s a bad game, that’s not what i’m saying. however it isn’t the best 3D Mario game Nintendo could had made for the switch. and they themselves know that more then me that that is true just look at Mario games like- super paper Mario for the Wii. Just look at gameplay of the first stage in the game and tell me that anything on the switch compares to the amount of care and quality, for a Mario game to that.

I am proud that one of my posts managed to get to 100 upvotes.

rob299, (edited ) to lemmy_support in Best way to bookmark lemmy communities in a web browser

I agree it’s probably weird, unnecessary? eh depends on use case. lemmy (atleast the website) seems to meet me halfway with why I would use Bookmarks to begin with. one thing I can’t seem to figure out is how to set custom categories for Lemmy communities that I subscribe to/order them without having to unsubscribe and subscribe again to communities, in the web interface.

rob299, to asklemmy in When searching for Lemmy communities do you sort by new, old or top hour etc

I feel sorting top 6 hours would make more sense for me if I were sorting posts/coments within a community itself, because I would want the newest posts, but at that point I just defualt to new anyways.

But when searching for communities, personally i’m not for sorting it by hours or days because I want to make sure a community has an ok track record of being active, but at the same time i’m not wanting to keep a monopoly so that’s why I don’t go out of my way to sort the communities by top year or something like that because then we’d have another Google. I strive to strike a balence.

I understand that too, as there are less users then mastodon, although I found the interaction to be pretty tolerable on lemmy in the comments on some of the communities i’ve joined, untill you get into more niche communities.

if it’s a different instance.

rob299, to asklemmy in Why does lemmy seem better for engagement and conversation then (I meant than) Mastodon

if you like anime you can try Sakurajima.moe, the staff and users on that particular instance are conversaters.

I wouldn’t use mastodon without hashtags, but they have their limitations and potential short comings.

rob299, to asklemmy in Why does lemmy seem better for engagement and conversation then (I meant than) Mastodon

That’s a way to look at it.

rob299, to asklemmy in Why does lemmy seem better for engagement and conversation then (I meant than) Mastodon

Twitter doing this was by design, while Mastodon doesn’t tend to shadow ban. I might make my guesses about why, but I don’t know the actual complete reasoning as to why it seems to be better for discusion on Lemmy.

rob299, (edited ) to asklemmy in Why does lemmy seem better for engagement and conversation then (I meant than) Mastodon

I guess that’s particularly what I meant. While mastodon you’d have to build up a following to get anywhere near even the amount of comments on this post right here. Unless you get lucky with one or two posts which can happen, I known an owner of a smaller Mastodon instance (with more then 300 users so not the smallest of small instances but still small.) to manage to get over 100 likes and over 50 boosts on a post, and when they did they linked to it and was like, “ha, see you can get traction on Mastodon.”

rob299, (edited ) to asklemmy in Why does lemmy seem better for engagement and conversation then (I meant than) Mastodon

People could advertise this as feature about using lemmy, that the probalility of getting comments are pretty high. particularly on Mastodon, because it’s certainly something people are looking for, after coming from platforms like Youtube that keep hiding your posts. I think it’s mostly the ease of use with the communities. Because on Mastodon, while a instance hosted may have a dedicated topic, posts aren’t typically organized. and it’s harder to find posts that interests you if people either use different hash tags then what you search for, and the added fact that you have to constantly search, while once you join a Lemmy community you just scroll the post feed In said community.

I love sorting by new, I kinda wish it was a defualt thing, while on Mastodon posts seem to automatically sort by new, yet I seem to get less interaction in comments on various posts on Mastodon.

correct.
