I'm progressive on economic policy, and libertarian on social values. I support things like universal healthcare and ubi. I also support decriminalizing all drugs and legal prostitution.

That's probably because everyone who left came here.

I'd get a Fairphone if it worked on Verizon.

Mostly I used Twitter to follow specific journalists and a few famous people. Mostly sports stuff. There isn't much sports media on Mastodon unfortunately.

I think the point of Twitter is to follow famous people. Since there are very few famous people on Mastodon it makes it less useful. They need celebrities and media platforms to make the switch. That's not really a problem for a link aggregator like Lemmy. I think this site has a bright future.

Just get the test strips, they're not expensive.

Yeah I prefer the look and feel of Jerboa. It's working fine for me now but I have experienced some glitches in the past.

I've tried Connect and Jerboa for Android. Out of the two I prefer Jerboa.

I don't really like playing pirated games. I enjoy steam cloud save. I like being able to switch between my PC and my steamdeck and my laptop.

Yeah but upgrading your GPU costs as much as a new console.

Never heard of rdtclient, seems like that would be cheaper than Usenet. Might have to give it a try.

I'd go to all the pawn shops and clean them out. Lots of gold and silver I could resell.

Personally I use both. I have Sonar set to pull from Usenet first, then a private tracker, then a few public trackers. I just like Usenet because it works really good with all my wife's reality TV shows. I always had trouble getting them with torrents.

Also the used game market makes it so you can buy and sell your games when you are done with them. I switched to PC awhile ago. I don't think it's really cheaper. It cost about $1000 to build a PC that can compete with a $400 console.

Sharks will smell blood in the water.
