  • I’m one of those weirdos who actually dumps all my own games with my own modded launch Switch mainly for preservation purposes.

    But then TotK came out and performed so poorly on the console itself, I exported my save to play on PC and Steam Deck. Every part of my Switch emulation journey has been legal and by-the-book: dumped my own firmware, my own keys, and my own games.

    Fuck Nintendo for bullying these developers.

    Just now seeing this, sorry.

    I’m not sure why the instance would struggle with this, it’s running on a modern i7 with plenty of RAM and an NVMe solid state drive.

    The only thing I can think of is that Lemmy’s blocklist import functionality is incredibly unoptimized. I would suggest breaking the blocklist up into smaller chunks and trying to import them individually, if you can.


  • frozenMAtoSupportWhat happened to the instance?

    Apologies! The host machine was having networking issues early this morning. Everything should be resolved now, and the federation queue should be catching up. This may take some time, given I’m not entirely sure how long the issues were happening. I’m going to be keeping a closer eye on things for the next day or so.

    Again, apologies for the inconvenience.




  • Honestly, it’s probably not worth the hassle to try to install system apps elsewhere. Steam and Lutris, on the other hand, can put games on any mounted drive. Install them as normal, and then in Steam, set up a steam library in /Apps. In Lutris, you should have the option to choose where each game is installed each time you install one.

    Literally yes. And you don’t even need to know the exact pixel resolution of the TV.

    Edit: Here are the problems with you “Wayland isn’t good enough” people.

    First, you don’t use Wayland, so you don’t even know if it’s fixed whatever weird issue you encountered with it before or if it supports a niche use case, for example.

    Second, Wayland won’t get good enough for you until you start using it and reporting bugs. You think X11 was a bed of roses when it first started? Or do you think they bumped the version number 11 times for fun?




  • I played 10 or so hours of base SMTV and really enjoyed it, but I definitely felt like it was hampered by the choice of platform, which turned me off. Tons of FPS drops and performance issues. I’m hoping SMTV:V is at least Gold rated for Steam Deck so that I still have the portability aspect.

    I played through SMTIV a few years ago and have SMTIV:A, but never touched it. Is it different enough to check out, or should I just stick to SMTV:V?
