As a kid I liked GTA2, modded the game to make the taxi super fast and strong lol

I messed around a lot in GTA3 with cheats, causing chaos in the tank

Vice City I actually played for real and beat it, my favorite in the series, but I stopped after that. I probably would've enjoyed San Andreas because it's similar. GTA4 and 5 just seemed like a different tone and style that I was never very interested in. Also they took too long to bring to PC lol.

  1. "sort": that's the word for the options of "new", "scaled", "active" etc, right?

Yep https://join-lemmy.org/docs/users/03-votes-and-ranking.html

  1. @Die4Ever pointed out there's a "Show Read Posts" option in the settings. I've unticked that and will see how it goes.

I honestly don't use this feature myself lol but I hope it helps you!

In your settings on the website there's a checkbox for "Show read posts", uncheck that. Some apps have the same feature or similar. Some apps also have an option to mark as read when you scroll past a post without opening it.

like I said, hashtags are fun, but the fact that even if you follow the hashtag it only shows posts that were already federated into your instance confuses people

communities/groups will federate the posts for you if you follow, but following a hashtag does not give any federation

Even if you could follow hashtags on Lemmy, you would also need to be able to follow users for anything to show up (so that's 2 big new features required). And since it requires following users, that would also mean a culture shift would be required, you'd need to convince your instance-mates to use their Lemmy accounts to follow people, but people are mostly here to follow communities not people.

I'm not against the features being added, I just don't think they're going to be as impactful to the Lemmy platform as expected.

yea I mean it's fun to use and works well if you're on a large instance like mastodon.social, I use it even on a medium size instance

but communities/groups work better on the fediverse, and maybe something in between the 2 could be created, some kind of federated version of hashtags

hashtags don't work well on the Fediverse, a hashtag doesn't have an owning instance which means there's no way to push/pull the content by hashtag

This is implemented in the main branch now. If you want to develop a plugin for Lemmy, have a look at the RFC and the examples. If you have questions about plugin development, feel free to post in the Matrix dev chat, !lemmy@lemmy.ml or open an issue.

Examples in multiple languages: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy-plugins#lemmy-plugins (only a few examples currently, more languages are possible including Python)

Anyone planning to start working on a plugin?

it depends if your Lemmy instance is configured to copy and host images, or proxy images (in which case they won't get your IP but they'll know when you look), or neither (they get your IP if they're running their own instance or self-hosting the image itself)

I just sent myself a PM to test:

programming.dev shows the image as hosted from retrolemmy.com

it might also be currently bugged: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/5538

It also reduces the possibility of being tracked

I think Deus Ex (2000). The gameplay is so open and full of possibilities, and the story is crazy but it works so well. It's so replayable.
