I setup Gogs once like 6 years ago or something lol, I remember it being pretty easy and it is nice. Although if Gitea is more actively maintained then it's probably worth giving that a shot first.

Zombies Ate My Neighbors – Wide Mode

Simply increases the playfield area on screen from 256×224 to 320×224. Seems to be compatible with other patches.

so simple, but probably a good improvement for co-op play

you can actually edit posts in Lemmy, so unlike Reddit you could edit this to remove that stuff

Do you know some more hidden remake gems?

OpenRCT2, eDuke32 and other Build Engine source ports, Doom has many source ports

and ScummVM for many old adventure games

I've seen lots of people having issues just signing up.

I've also had a friend have a similar issue before.

There definitely needs to be some testing with creating new accounts and UX improvements. And maybe a reporting page so instance admins can be alerted when many accounts are being created and not logged into successfully.

I might've just beaten him to the punch on this one. This update is only for beta testers. I've seen him in comments before.

I didn't have to do anything special, but it could be a staged rollout, might just be luck of the draw

I forgot I was in the beta!

Yep it is fixed, I tested it with your comment lol. This is something that annoyed me too

New users don't want to be required to block 1000 accounts when they first start, that's more friction to joining a new social network. I mean Lemmy users already get turned away by the Lemmit bot and that's just 1 single account to block lol literally like 2 clicks.

A database of bans with tags for the ban reasons could work, like https://gui.fediseer.com/instances/censured

I wouldn't use email as a great example for spam filters, considering how much it caused Gmail to take a monopoly and how often it blocks emails you actually want. You practically can't self host email anymore.

But you said you can post to multiple relays, and you can choose what relays to post to freely? Doesn't that mean duplicate work for all the relay admins?

I have thought about nomadic social networks before based on public keys, I do generally think it's a good idea. I'm just not sure if the Twitter/Mastodon style is an ideal fit.
