Since Brandon Sanderson's Secret Project #3 came out on Saturday morning (Yumi and the Nightmare Painter) that's what I'm reading for the next week.

Fury Road is so close to a perfect movie

Valve quietly not publishing games that contain AI generated content if the submitters can't prove they own the rights to the assets the AI was trained on

I do believe that Mastodon supports Elasticsearch/Opensearch OOTB, so you're not wrong on NoSQLs being fediverse compatible.
Personally I haven't looked into the kbin stack so I can't give an opinion as to why psql is used over X.

i'm currently in that "need to change fonts" phase again across all my editors and this is now my top choice

How can you have 1000+ hours in a single game, work on a personal project for 10 months, spend 4 years writing a novel?

question about this magazine: would it be more sensible to redirect people to post sales links (e.g. the weekly EGS free game) into https://kbin.social/m/gamedeals instead of likely potential dupe posts here (that has at least already happened)?

The most hours I've ever put into a game (that wasn't WoW pre-Cata) is 99 (Persona 5). My brain just can't (or won't) comprehend playing something for x-hundred/thousand hours even if I really enjoy it.

I, like many of the other replies, feel quite the same. Although I think the highlight of this for me is just how less aggressive and how much more receptive and open to discussion people have been. tbf i still mostly lurk but I've commented more here in a few days than I have in the final few years I was on reddit.

this is the main thing I want from a "reddit alternative", but since all the kbins/lemmys are being treated as "reddit alternatives" I really don't see this happening
