Would run and gun games count? If so, I strongly recommend the Neo Geo Metal Slug games. They're all sold emulated on PC (GOG for the no launcher requirement).

And on a more usual sense of "shooter games", Saints Row The Third (GOG and Humble Bundle) and UNLOVED (original version is a mod of Doom II afaik). And just a note, Saints Rows The Third, from some tests I did a while back, seems to have a memory leak issue in character customization screens when running under default Wine.

If I understood the joke (not familiar with the acronyms), it's about gas-based equipment breaking down more easily?

Going by the "moderates" section in the OP's profile in his original instance, it seems to be https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/c/addons4kodi

Maybe in some cases, it helps to use Alt F10, or, since I'm using Mint and it may change in other systems, maybe the equivalent for yours?

And if the user uses Mbin instances, he/she can even block posts that link to other domains, as often political posts link to news sites.

And some times, having the initiative to create such more specific communities could be a change factor for the growth of a social media. Also, with federation, not just the person can choose where to create the community on while not making it a walled garden as other sites would still have access to it, but also if a community for the given subject already exists but the user thinks he can do better, he/she can more easily do it with how expansive the "fediverse" is.

Growth is a process, not an immediate switch. Every social media started small and then grew. If immediatism, or however it is called, was the predominant factor for any struggle to become an achievement, nothing would be achieved.

And on lack of contents, I, for one, block everything that is not of my interest, quite a lot to be honest, specially with certain niches spamming the federated platforms, but even then, I get a feeling I should trim even some of the communities/magazines I follow/subscribe to as I can barely catch up to those already.

Though I have yet to get a Deck for myself, I'd probably use it a lot to read comics. Having used the Vita a lot for that, being able to control the comics with a physical controller was fantastic, and the far greater processing power of the Deck should also avoid pages taking a long while to load (loading Humble Bundle's ebooks in measly 512 MB of RAM is an experience).
