Same dev and they're both based on old newgrounds flash animations/games.

They've been slowly rolling it out for the last few months, I haven't been hit with it yet either.

If it's so annoying why not just block the sub? Open source isn't inherently bad or good.

You sound like you've gotta unplug a bit because this is clearly bothering you a lot, go enjoy your games the way you want to.

Agreed, I've been using refind for about a year now and it hasn't failed me.

I installed Windows on an isolated drive, connected another drive, installed Linux and refind.

running a quick refind-install in the terminal picked up the windows bootloader and all of the Linux kernels that I have installed.

Came here to recommend the same thing. Incredibly relaxing, funny, and wholesome.

None of the people hosting these instances were prepared for the massive influx of new users. Lemmy is still a platform in it's infancy, many of the people running these instances are trying their hardest to keep things afloat.

Reddit is one of the largest platforms that exists and the number of people seeking an alternative is astronomical.

Besides that, if Reddit goes down, it's down. You can't just seek out another instance and use that, this is something I would personally consider a feature.

Happy Canada to all across the Fediverse!
