For Android, Librera from F-Droid. From the non-Google Play readers, it was the best I found.

For the PS Vita, Noboru. Though laggy (lack of RAM in the Vita at fault) and only supporting image-based ebooks, being able to control ebooks by the physical controllers is fantastic, something I greatly miss in any other readers I remember.

What if you install DOSBox separately, then point Heroic to open it along with the game’s bundled config file? (Iirc dosbox -conf /path/to/conf-file.conf, though can’t test now to be sure)

The good part of the backdoor to have been found out is that now it’s much harder to pull that again, be it on the same project, or in projects from people that followed through the issue and/or the news - and with how much noise was made, I’d expect quite a lot more of people than the usual to have seen something about.

For more psychological horrors, maybe the first Devil May Cry? Early PS2 game, and is a recycled Resident Evil project so part of the ambience remains. Later games are more toned down on horror though.

Dreaming Sarah, I found to be good, but its horror is more on the bizarre.

Limbo, been considering playing for a while now, and from what I’ve seen, jump scares seem minimal. Same for the creator’s other game, Inside.

Kbin.Social (rip) and Lemm.ee (rip #2) posts still appear on Lemmy.World. Also pondercat (rip #3) was a bot-only instance (in its case, for tracking RSS feeds), but interacteable with. So all in all, I think it’s fairly possible, with only minor (?) issues being in the way, like mirroring external content that would be loaded seemlessly (e.g. Imgur on Lemmy) and storage and processing power for tracking the instances.

Every two to three days! And on both on the linked blog and on Tumblr, from what I could find (and both with RSS if you’re the type to use it).

On the first point, propagation happens passively too. For example, if someone follows me on Mastodon, this reply will be pulled to his/her feed as a microblogging post, and will be discoverable on any feeds my account later appears. I remember also testing around between Lemmy and Mbin how liking/upvoting works, and doing that on Lemmy while the Mbin account followed it also showed posts previously not on my Mbin instance.

Similarly, Mbin (and dunno about Lemmy but I’d imagine it’s the same) pulls Peertube channels as magazines/communities, and iirc Peertube channels can also be followed as users on microblogging platforms, and in both cases their video uploads automatically appear on the respective text feeds.

And about the second point, I agree, but that’s also why I suggest recommending major platforms. For example, Lemmy.World and Mastodon.Social are likely to have far more publications being posted on or propagated to than Mbin or PieFed instances, since the former two are around for much longer, and not actively trying to be toxic (at least from what I can observe).

(sorry for the repost - messed formatting badly)

Personally, I think it would only work out if the programmer tries to reconstruct posts from different formats in a format that works out for each. Otherwise it becomes what it already is, a glorified browser with multiple profiles enabled, and with over-preference for a type of engine.

My opinion is, take note of the major platforms for each engine and/or experience, and recommend them based on your friends’ tastes.

The rest, centralization, would be replaced by what I call propagation (iirc people call it “to federated”?), which people directly and indirectly do, like boosting posts (Mbin / microblogging stuff) and commenting so people following the user see the original post too, following people and following Peertube channels on Peertube and the “threadiverse” so one’s account is a bridge for propagation, up/downvoting, etc. And as this web of social medias grows, tendency is that it keeps growing exponentially until either it takes over like email, or stagnates.

This logic, I think, is similar to recommending Linux Mint or immutable distros to Linux novices, the “safe bet” for them before they get used to the technical side or while Linux wouldn’t (past tense) become accessible.

Great material for !weirdcore@sopuli.xyz and !internetfuneral@lemmy.world

Going by a graph by the GamingOnLinux site, in the past 7 years, overall it has shown an exponential growth tendency. Plus previous surveys all are archived on sites like Internet Archive so they could do their own research. Given that, to me the headline already opening up with “recedes” sounds disingenuous, or at least a case of hyperfocusing on a detail without need, something I tire to see in other types of news. Plus they work on the text based on the headline, without checking or commenting on the tendency.

Checking the Tumblr blog (first of the two I found) on my Newsboat feed, and the author seems to post every two or three days, including one today!

I’d try finding a community to where I’d like to post a given article, and look for its posts in the OG instance as well as in instances I have accounts on for other engines (the 3 major thread-oriented ones I know about are Lemmy, Mbin and PieFed). Other than that, of retarded/delayed results but still something I’d recommend, is to follow people in other instances (Mbin / microblogging / Peertube thing), and interact with everything the user finds so posts can propagate across instances, so at least in future searches, others, or even yourself, may find/refind posts more easily.

The Neo Geo Metal Slug games were extremely fun to play side by side with a friend. Just note Metal Slug 2 has lag problems due to the engine used, but it was later ported to MS3’s engine as Metal Slug X.

Also, most versions of the games on PC come with the ROMs, if you’d rather use your own emulator.

Another set of games we also enjoyed a lot were the River City Girls games. Just had to use health cheats on the SNES game repurposed because it was getting too hard for the time we had. "<.<

Have yet to test the Deck or any other portable console-like PCs, but about Linux it is pretty straightforward nowadays for running Windows games, mostly requiring some occasional tweaks and troubleshooting, but nothing major. ^_

Also in the topic of facilitating usage, maybe you’d be interested in checking Heroic Launcher if you have games on Amazon Prime, EGS and/or GOG? Makes running the respective platforms’ games pretty easy too.

Thanks!

Maybe I should make a pinned post for resources too. Know a group on Steam and a thread on GOG for their respective removals too

!gamedelistings@thebrainbin.org still slow.

!grayjay@thebrainbin.org created as no other had been created yet since Lemm.ee went down, but perhaps as it’s an young community, it still is going slow too. Also not related to the Lemm.ee community.

Started following it, so the instance I use should be tracking it now too. =)

If I had a nickel for every time my phone saved me from massive failures in Linux, I’d have 4 nickels. "<.<
