  • I mean if I am not paying either way me ingesting that content or not makes 0 difference to the producer. It is the same logic as throwing excess food to the trash so homeless can't eat it.

  • How will lemmy instances survive if they get too big?

  • Wikipedia has been running on donations for so many years. So I don't think we are close to reaching that limit in any way

  • How do you say C#?

    Jump

  • It is often called C Hashtag but it is actually C .Net/(slash) Hashtag

    People with bad sense of direction, can you enjoy open world games?

  • YSK: If you want faster and less buggy User experience, move to a smaller instance that is hosted close to you.

    Jump

  • Servers are federated by default so unless it has been defederated by big instances you will have no problems. Important thing is instance you are joining having captcha/email verification because the ones without is suspectible to bot sign ups. So big instance might defederate with them to prevent bot attacks

  • You can click the "use map" button on this site: https://fediverse.observer/. But if you can't find a instance that you like that is close don't worry. Because server closeness doesn't matter nearly as much as servers being overloaded.

  • Recommendations for short session games with materialistic progress made with each session

    Jump

  • I want to point out the obvious choice by recommending Minecraft. It is very easy to proficient, acquiring in game materials is all you do. Play sessions can be as long as you want since it is a open sandbox and you can add as much depth as you want via mods.

  • What programming language would be the best to learn to develop a game from scratch?

    Jump

  • If you are new you probably want to decide which game engine you want to use first, then learn one of the languages that engine supports.

    Most popular choices would be: Unreal engine, Unity and Godot. Hovewer if your goal is to get into game dev industry by far the most popular language would be C++ followed by C#.

    Depending on the scope of your game(if it is a very simple 2d game like 2048) you might want to consider Python too. it is known for being one of the easiest languages to learn and you will have easy time researching the points you get stuck on.

  • What made you pick the Lemmy server you are on?

    Jump

  • There is several of factors you should consider:

    • Does it have a healthy amount of users: between 1k-10k users are probably the sweet spot right now. You don't want too many users because it will cause performance problems. And instances with too few users has too many unknowns.

    • read the rules see if you agree: servers can have wildy different rules ranging from no NSFW to no downvotes. If they don't have any rules that is a red flag too. You want an active moderation so the instance doesn't get run over by bots.

    • Does it look low effort: check the banner, how the announcement formatted.

    That is probably all the basics

  • I got approved today 20 mins after verifying my email. It was a pleasant surprise

  • Is there a way to ignore all content from specific instances?

    Jump

  • All the data comes from your own instance afaik. So pi-hole wouldn't work

  • Is there a way to ignore all content from specific instances?

    Jump

  • Currently only way to block a entire instance is defedarting in instance to instance Level. So you would either need to convince your instance admin to defederate or host your own. But I don't see a reason why this wouldn't be possible in future. It can even probably be implemented by a third party client without any changes to Lemmy api

  • Yeah being overloaded is definitely the biggest factor but servers being close also helps especially when you have a slow Internet connection. That is why I added bring close part as "preferably"

  • Currently Lemmy doesn't support account migrating but it is technically possible afaik. It might get added in future but currently you have to sing up from sracth. Hovewer I would say having a Lemmy.world account in addition is probably a good call.

    Jump

  • Yeah! of course when I say a small instance, I don't mean a random instance with 10 users. You should check it out before you join. There is a lot of great instances with ~1000 users. Maybe should add it to the post.

  • Why does it seem like desert cultures tend to cover most of their body, while tropical cultures tend to wear very little clothing?

    Jump

  • From someone who lived in a place with very dry dessert like climate and moved to one that is next to the sea. It is all about humidity. In most dry climates your biggest problem is direct sun-contact. Sun will literally start to burn your skin as soon as you are out but you will be fine in a shadow. In a humid climate sun will not burn as much. But air becomes very heavy and you start to sweat non stop. So in dry climate you want a thin, preferably white clothing to prevent sun contact. While in humid climate you want as little clothing as possible.

    Hovewer if you are gonna be out in sun for a long time especially in summer. You should cover your body at least your head and your body if you don't have a sun screen. People living in forest doesn't need to do this because they will mostly be in shadows from all the trees.
