  • 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.






  • 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.





  • By the way, if you know the handle of a community, e.g. fediverse@piefed.social for http://piefed.social/c/fediverse, you can add a ! to the beginning of it, e.g. !fediverse@piefed.social, and send it as a DM to an alt account, or as the text body of a post to some test community. Then when clicking on the hyperlink it creates, initial federation with that community should start and let you subscribe. In the example I gave, it becomes !fediverse@piefed.social. It works also with Peertube channels and Mbin magazines, and I’d imagine so too but yet to test, with Friendica groups and Wordpress blogs.







  • Liking efficiency, I also love practical feeds become once you curate things to your liking, specially propagation happens and even if it doesn’t, there’s still widespread RSS and bridges adoption. If I want, I can even follow profiles from Threads and Bluesky, and also news and blogs through such.

    Plus if a platform goes down, posts still stay around, propagating as people interact. Great for super old contents. =D
