When I saw the words “Discord alternative”, I got excited. Disappointing, but thanks for the heads up.

I’ll check back in a few months to a year to give you time to build up the featureset. Thank you for making this. Discord doesn’t have enough competition.

Sweet, I’ve been looking for something exactly like this for my upcoming radio station. I was going to use RocketChat but man is it a pain in the ass to get it to do the things I want it to do.

How difficult is it to install, configure, and keep Peersuite up to date? Does it integrate well with websites? Would it be suitable for use as a public chat? The whole “no server” thing is concerning, especially since I’ll need to be able to see a full chat history at any given moment (for moderation purposes).

This is why I disabled notifications for all of my work-related apps.

I’m happy for you. It’s still down for me:

Site’s down already lol

I messed around with Linspire in the early 2000s after seeing a segment about it on The Screen Savers (on TechTV). It was about Microsoft suing them for originally calling the OS “Lindows”, so called because it was among the first OSes designed to attract people who are used to Windows.

I believe that it was among the first distros to induce the concept of app stores to Linux, and since I couldn’t figure out how tar.gz files worked at the time, it sounded like a good idea to me. Used it for about a year or three, before moving onto Ubuntu for many years then eventually Arch.

And now I’m back on Windows again because I bought an HDR display and learned the hard way that Linux has terrible support for it. Can’t get the HDR intensity slider to work properly in KDE, and there’s no SDR-to-HDR conversion at all in Linux, which means no AutoHDR and no RTX HDR. So in the meantime I’m dual booting Win11 and Arch, but I find myself using Windows more and more because it’s HDR support keeps getting better and better, especially if you have an nVidia GPU.

Fuck

Sure. Whatever helps you sleep at night.

OnlyOffice is good too if you want a more modern interface.

I would never have known that Lemmy existed, if it weren’t for redditors telling me about it around the time Spez went nuclear on 3rd party apps. And here I thought that everyone on Lemmy came from reddit.

FWIW, I’ve heard that they’ve recently been censoring any mentions of Lemmy. They’re obviously afraid of reddit becoming a repeat of digg. Which is why they’ve been slowly enshittifying the place instead of doing all at once like digg did. Fuck reddit, and fuck Spez.

Seventeen years!? God dayum!

And here I thought the Fediverse was 6-7 years old tops. Wild that the concept is just now starting to gain traction.

Because it makes more sense.

Mainly because the wrong people are the vast majority of gun owners.

They’ve always been here. They call themselves Communists, but they’re nothing but a bunch of authoritarian bootlickers, also known as “tankies”.

If I were you I’d just block hexbear.net, lemmygrad.ml, and lemmy.ml. That stops the vast majority of tankies from invading your feed with their ignorant bullshit.

Calm down, China.

I’ll never understand why a certain subset of people are so adamantly against multiplayer games. Y’all are so loud and annoying.

Single player AI is often repetitive and boring; the unpredictability of human players is what makes online games so much fun. You people should take those sticks out of your asses and give them a try sometime. You might find that you like them.

I’m not worried about it; EA games go offline long after I’m done with them. I’ve never seen them take down a game that wasn’t already completely dead 5 years ago.

My major concern is with development. I don’t trust them to make a great game without fucking something up somehow.
