It runs pretty well! Linux certainly helps a little by being lighter overall than Windows, but everything works great on Fedora. I haven't had any issues. Dolphin runs well too.

I think so too. ☺️

I’m using Pikmin 2 as my rainy weather or too hot right now activity. ☺️

[-] Saturn@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Thanks! I’ll check those out.

I love both games, but personally Pikmin 2 is my favorite. I really like the treasure hunting mechanics they added and the dungeons.

It’s a PowerA Nintendo Switch Enhanced controller. ☺️

My old laptop is doing great work as a fedora linux workstation and emulation platform for me on vacation.

I think most of it has to do with that lemmy.world has better hardware than other instances. The admin Rudd has a lot of experience running federated services as well. So it may be his first rodeo lemmy-wise but not hosting a federated service with a large user-base.

So when a lot of smaller instances started getting overwhelmed and stopping signups, lemmy.world was going strong without the performance issues that other instances might see.

That along with the fact that NSFW content is allowed makes lemmy.world a good alternative for Reddit refugees looking for something stable with a similar set of rules as well.

I myself joined lemmy.ml at first, then beehaw.org when lemmy.ml asked everyone to spread out, and finally found home on lemmy.world because I didn’t really like how downvotes are disabled on beehaw. Not to mention the defederation that beehaw has done recently. Although I can understand and appreciate why they’ve done that.

I like this way of putting it. It’s like that post that was around a few days ago discussing lemmy as being “CEO-proof”.

It’s not really I guess, but if an instance got big and started being unfriendly/unreasonable to users they could just go to another instance and still be part of the federation.

I feel like most people who have been playing video games since childhood have one or more of a select few games that they go back and replay every few years.

For me I’ve been replaying Pokémon Emerald Version recently. Nothing like nostalgia and being able to better enjoy aspects of a game you didn’t understand as a kid. ☺️

Absolutely. I think mine is still around somewhere, but the screen has a pretty substantial crack if I’m remembering correctly.

How have you found Lineage OS? I was curious about FOSS phone OS options a while ago.

I loved my nexus 6 back in the day (which I believe was made by Motorola). I miss it sometimes today.

That’s neat by the way: using the edge part of the screen as trigger buttons for Citra.
