Having to redo a meaningless trash pull to reset your title eligibility feels bad.

Having to stand there doing nothing while waiting for mechanics to resolve feels bad.

Not being able to use my dodge to mitigate damage feels bad.

Seeing my friends gear and learn builds they don't actually want to play just to pull a reasonable numbers feels bad.

This encounter feels like it was designed for a different MMO. I think it would make a great mythic+ boss.

I'll add gw2mists to the sidebar, as that's a more feature-complete website with the same functionality. That URL is using a free website host, so I'm a bit skeptical of its trustworthiness.

Edit: it's already there. Reading is hard XD

I would recommend replacing the Silver-Fed with Mystic Salvage Kits if you have stones to spare. It's less gold per salvage :)

gw2updates@botsin.space is available as an unofficial fedi alternative for critical game news if you're looking for something to follow.

Thanks for helping the fediverse, CosmicSploogeDrizzle.

@Ravi @Leiesoldat A lot of the power users who submitted the bulk of the content have stopped posting. Casual lurkers will follow eventually.

I remember when all of my gaming friends were on Skype and Teamspeak. It took some time, but now we all use Discord. Someday, Discord will die too and we'll move on to Revolt or something else.

It'll take time for reddit to die and habits to break. But we'll be here once folks are ready. https://pluralistic.net/2023/01/21/potemkin-ai/#hey-guys

@dominoko Yep. Search on federated social media doesn't actually search text, only hashtags. This makes it so only people who want their post to be found can make it easily findable; cuts down on the quote retweet dunk kinda stuff.

Hopefully it's actual gameplay and not RP that makes it long. I much prefer faster fractals, but I'll take what I can get.

It's slow going for now. I'm just glad we have a reddit-like place to go in case reddit collapses further.

Anet does seem to be keeping things fairly close to the chest nowadays. They're only giving details on the next update and keeping any future plans vague at best.

TY, try it now.

There is an app on the way. @artemisapp

iirc that was happening for kbin.social for a while during a ddos attack. cloudflare does mess with federation quite a bit.

Both of those links lead to 404s.

I'll make a Lemmy account later tonight and see if I can figure it out. Thanks!

As much as I'd like that to happen, this part of the fediverse is definitely not ready for a mass migration of users. For now, it's only longtime users and early adopters. The average user probably wouldn't be okay with downtime, and the average moderator would be woefully underequipped to manage the community.

The beauty of federated social media is that it doesn't matter which one "wins". Once bugs are sorted out, Kbin can see Lemmy's content and Lemmy can see Kbin's.

Everything here is connected, so it ultimately won't matter which platform or server you choose. Obviously there are levers for admins to defederate (or, refuse to communicate with) from servers who host illegal content or enable spammers. This is generally a last resort though; most admins believe strongly in keeping everything connected.

@ernest hey sorry to ping you, but could you look into this?

Do dailies on red BL if you hate running into people. Or just learn how to fight. I chose the latter as a PvE player and it's been a lot more fun.

I think any channel that's able to get away with crowdfunded monetization like Ko-Fi or Patreon would be able to make the switch comfortably.
