I want to remember people, that I was right and Tyler McVicker was wrong. He predicted a launch price of 1500 Dollars. There were entire articles and discussions in the web around that prediction: https://www.tweaktown.com/news/112988/the-steam-frame-could-be-priced-at-dollars1500-at-launch-according-to-insider/index.html and linked to Lemmy post for discussions: https://lemmy.ml/post/51014971 I just find it fun to see and read what people expected, and then what reality is.
I quote myself:
how come you have gone back with your account to lemmy.ml?
I actually don’t understand your question. My current account https://lemmy.ml/u/thingsiplay is the last and newest one I created. Before that, I had an account at beehaw instance. I had disagreed with a deletion of my reply, just because they didn’t like it (or even understood). No toxicity was involved. … aand before that I also had an account on kbin, but switched over to Lemmy, because kbin seems to be dead. I didn’t check in years.
Unless I misunderstood your question.
I’m asking because this account of yours is just 8 months old, but I have seen you around for a long time. also I think you had more upvotes counted in voyager
This is my only account I am using, since I abandoned my previous main account with same name and icon. My previous account was on beehaw instance at https://beehaw.org/u/thingsiplay , joined 3 years ago. I left that place because I disagree with moderation and switched to lemmy.ml. I do not use multiple accounts at the same time, BTW, always a single main account.
Just curious why .ml?
You mean why this instance specifically? I looked around and there was a few candidates. For one, I wanted a big one with many people. One of the reasons to is, so the instance seems to be lively and won’t close too soon. Because I don’t want another kbin situation. I don’t want want that blocks many instances or get blocked by many (besides the extremes off course).
One that is not tooo much opinionated like beehaw, because I don’t want that anymore. I looked into the rules, and some instances had bad rules, don’t remember details. It’s even run by the Lemmy’s developers themselves. Not sure if that is a good thing, but it ensures a bit of longevity I think. And first class support and updates.
Other than that, I don’t remember too many details. Why you guys chose the instance you chose?
.ml has a reputation of hosting lots of tankies, which is why some people have the whole instance banned, I chose sopuli because low ping
I noticed that a few instances are banned. I actually wanted to avoid that, unless the instances are bad or extreme. I don’t know what tankies mean btw. But I’m probably not switching that soon away, unless it gets bad.
