It got an influx of people and is laggy, but when it works... it honestly feels just like discord. I haven't seen screen sharing working yet but the dev in the discord was saying he was working on an update to alleviate the lag and it would make self-hosting easier, which would also help alleviate lag indirectly
New update is great. The patron and spawn area reworks are phenomenal. The new game mode is great when you only have time for a short game or just want a more casual game.
It's whacky and fun and the legendary items are ridiculous.
However, since you can pick characters, there will be a "meta" even though it's random items.
A bunch of characters just absolutely start wrecking it if it gets past 3rd round. For example, Infernus at round 4-5 starts doing 200+ per burn tick and if you weren't lucky enough to get debuff remover, you just die
I'll preface this with things on the internet are not always factual.
In addition to that, I was mistaken, it wasn't total traffic, just the two most active users didn't post at all on the day the Ukrainians attacked the power grid...
The other statistics in this thread are eye opening for normal people, if they are accurate.
Update: I was wrong you do not need to create an account for each server
Original with misinformation stricken out:
I don't think stoat is federated... People need to make a new account for every server, so I can't see this catching on.
I wouldn't personally care, but it's a problem for a lot of people.
If I'm wrong let me know though. I'd love to get away from discord and my attempts to get friends on mumble or TS6 have been unsuccessful.
Amazing. Thank you for the Android Auto update!
