  • I’ve been spending less time on Lemmy and Kbin overall, but I’m more engaged and commenting more. Basically, I’m getting more out of the conversations here. Not saying the conversations on Reddit were any less meaningful, because there are a lot of intelligent people that posted and are posting over there (I’m assuming they’re still posting over there, I honestly haven’t been there since the 3PA Purge). Maybe because the amount of comments here are fewer so it’s easier to read more comments and respond vs the wall of comments and still missing a lot of information. I don’t know. But I feel like I can spend less time here and get more out of the posts and comments.


  • I’ve been an AT&T customer for years, mostly out of necessity. They just offer the best all around service for my needs.I tried switching to T-Mo, but they have a lot of dead spots (especially along interstates) and has weaker signal strength in most buildings than AT&T. And I just refuse to use Verizon, but they’re in a similar situation.


  • I’ve been using Brave for a few years now on my desktop and after reading the threads lately about it, I’d like to switch. I don’t seem to have the issues other users have, but I don’t want to use it based on the CEO’s views on some things.

    I’ve always had Firefox installed with uBlock Origin and I use it occasionally. One of the things Chromium based browsers have is built-in tab grouping. I know there are extensions and I’ve only tried Simple Tab Groups but it didn’t behave how I was expecting it to behave, which is like how Chromium handles it.

    So far that’s the only thing I’ve noticed.


  • I got a Synology years ago hoping to do this, but I didn’t do enough research and the model I got couldn’t quite decide and stream very well. I ended up just using it for backup and using my PC as a Plex server for a while. I eventually got an Nvidia Shield and just plugged in a large SSD to it and that works well.
