Also, if you'd be interested and/or you have games outside of Steam, Heroic Launcher has a compatibility layer manager that lets you install and swap around different versions (and forks) of Wine. Only installs to Heroic though, not system-wide or directly to Steam (though you can add external games to Heroic).

Not all too knowledgeable about Wine myself, but I'd imagine that like Windows, Wine must have its elements so tied together that updating something could potentially break something else. So on a hypothetical example, if you update how Wine interprets Vulkan API calls, you could end up breaking how it interpret Direct3D calls, as, to my knowledge, both do more or less the same thing, except Direct3D is much older.
RSS's a big for me and had been considering originally using Mastodon + RSS Parrot. But though I don't like the UI of Friendica, its native tracker bot function sounds rather interesting. 👀
Thinking here, the site engine I'd pick for daily use would probably be Mbin. But as I hear it is a bit of a processing hog, running it and a Friendica instance on the same device would maybe be too much for the device, so maybe I should buy another Raspberry Pi or some other SBC for it.
@piratepost@poliverso.org if it's on poliverso, then users from the "threadiverse" should be able to find it with !medmastodon@poliverso.org. And iirc, Friendica groups (or the equivalents from Lemmy, Mbin & PieFed) on Mastodon can be treated as both hashtags, and as users, e.g. on mastodon.social.
Tangencial comment, but as I'd presume your instance is running on a Linux server (usually sites are), maybe check with ncdu (if available) which folders are the biggest?
Been managing to feed !gamedelistings@thebrainbin.org quite a lot recently. That's... Good?
Also noticed yesterday !gamedelistings@lemm.ee still seems able to federate despite the instance not existing anymore. haunting~
Sadly not many people seem to be engaging with !defeat_the_backlog@thebrainbin.org. come on, these games ain't playing themselves
!grayjay@thebrainbin.org sadly is pretty slow. Meant to keep posting update news there but no having a more automated means of getting info makes it quite a task. Also maybe I should make a NewPipe/PipePipe community?
And considering making a Vita Handhelds community, and that one by news alone I think would be more lively.
"Consolidation" = "keeping just the first"?
If so, I'd say it's good to have alternatives around.
Dumped the disc and the save. In an emulator, I set speed at 200% wherever precision wasn't needed, put an Infinite Lives cheat and used Timmy as his maxed out basic attack is AoE. The game then got between neutral and barely enojoyable, so profit?
Also on the images issue pointed by another user, maybe also see if Lemmy now has a solution for it, or if any of the alternatives do.
Maybe there's a way to import contents through federation? Just, if both run on the same hardware when doing it (possibly the new instance on a subdomain), both would run way slower.
Directly compatible with Lemmy, there's Friendica (Facebook-like; also compatible with Twitter-like posts e.g. from Mastodon), Mbin (simplified/cleaner UI; also hybrid like Friendica), and PieFed (apparently more Reddit-like than Lemmy from what I read, in a technical sense).
Dunno which are better/worse to run, but I remember seeing hardware requirements on the docs of each of them.
Also it's not uncommon to see single user instances from my experience. But if you feel it's a waste of domain/resources, you could also create some dedicated community or something to give further use for it.
Heroic has a log tab in the settings iirc. Also this same log is generated when running from the terminal. You can launch them from Wine or forks, or through
