I posted a comment about the game before here. The game has improved since it launched, but if running around grinding for hours to improve your gear at the endgame doesn’t sound appealing then you most likely won’t enjoy it still.

The game was designed with solo play in mind but later content is much easier if you play with other players. There is matchmaking so you don’t need to work about making a party ahead of time.

Personally I would have some sort of notice regarding these on affected projects, but I don’t think it’s enough to warrant slapping an anti-feature flag on them just because of the author’s choice of code respoitory hosting provider or CDN.

I’m not sure how using a VPN would help in this situation if you are concerned about having your YouTube account banned? Would you being using that VPN while signed out and with cookies/site data cleared?

They’ve added more to do but the main gameplay loop still involves running around defeating enemies and getting loot.

• Since January 2023 they released the 4th region Stia, as as well as story that goes beyond that. The areas that they’ve added since the 3rd region Kvaris have their own gimmicks to use. They’ve not released any new regions since then as they said they want to focus on other parts of the game.

• There’s a new Creative Space feature that allows you to build some very impressive stuff.

• The class level cap is now 75 and they’ve added a load of class skills for each class as well as handed out buffs.

• Since launch they added the Braver (Katana & Bow), Bouncer (Jet Boots and Soaring/Dual Blades), Waker (summons familiars with their Harmonizer) and Slayer (Gunblade) classes.

• Leciel is a quest they added that changes its layout, obtainable buffs and end boss each day. Running it gives you near-endgame augment capsules for your gear.

• ARKS Rankings are now run weekly and task you with running existing content to get the highest score or best time and place onto a leaderboard. What this content is varies each week, but it can involve defeating a boss quickly, or completing a Trainia dungeon as fast as you can, or racing on hoverboards. The higher you get on the leaderboard the more ranking badges you get which you can spend on cosmetics, some gear and other prizes.

• Alliances can now compete in weekly rankings by collecting points from completing Alliance Tasks (which also give Alliance Badges). The best Alliances are rewarded with Meseta (the in-game currency).

• It’s not really a feature, but downloading the “PSO2” side of the game is now optional if you play the Steam version. It chops 58GB off the total install size if you don’t download it.

There’s a load of other features and quests they’ve added over time that I can’t remember off the top of my head. if you haven’t played for a long time, I would recommend giving it another try, though pacing yourself is advised.

If CS:GO was preserved as a beta version in the game’s properties that would be great. Apparently they are doing that now with some sort of replay player version but it’s broken?

I’m not sure what the difference between apps and clients is in this case. They are applications that you can access a Matrix server with, behaving as clients.

For mp3 sure, but for opus standards 160kbps is great. I read that 128kbps is generally considered the most you need but 160kbps smooths over any artifacts, assuming the source file doesn’t have them.

You can download audio from YouTube as 160kbps opus files, which aren’t lossless sure but it’s the highest quality you can get from YouTube if alternate means aren’t an option.

There is Funkwhale that you can use for self-publishing music. You can also upload your music library privately to listen to remotely.

It would attract the karma farming bots that reddit has. Any website that has a privilege system causes accounts with more privilidges to be worth more to buyers.

I tried finding information on what indexer they are using. Are they using their own?

Edit: says this in the readme:

The commoncrawl organization for crawling the web and making the dataset readily available. Even though we have our own crawler now, commoncrawl has been a huge help in the early stages of development.

How is that API still up after this has happened?

Dark Reader is just too heavy for what it does. I use https://github.com/m-khvoinitsky/dark-background-light-text-extension and it does all that I need.

Yeah I would imagine there are people that do. I don’t think there’s anything wrong posting it here too though - it’s not like we have finite space.

Speaking of obscurity, nowadays when errors occur it seems like programs and websites are too afraid to show you the details of the error outside of a generic, sometimes witty “Something happened” or “We dropped the magnifying glass”. I know that’s been a thing for a long time but it is frustraiting that users seem to be being protected from detailed errors more and more.

There are people that like to keep up with minor version releases like this.

Firefox has its own syncing system via a Firefox account that’ll sync your bookmarks, open tabs, history, logins, etc…

Firefox on desktop does support multiple profiles, but they are nowhere near as convenient as Chrome’s which is just a few clicks.

Yes for some people it is the subscription cost, or not wanting to support Blizzard, or wanting to re-experience an old version of the game as accurately as possible.

There are also those people that like hopping between realms whenever new ones are launched to get the “fresh” experience and don’t mind losing an old character when they’ve done all they’ve wanted to with it.

I do hope that more of these projects allowed you to export your character data to perhaps use on your own self-run private server. None of the ones I’ve seen allow you to do that.

Pleroma calls their equivalent of “All” the “Known Network” instead, which does a better job explaining what will show up there in my opinion.
