I managed to find this post somehow but I can inform you that there's a community for Tsukihime that I've created early on, it's on a smaller instance that doesn't wage defederation wars so it should be accessible to almost anyone.

Additionally if you want to appear in our sidebar you can reach out to me over DMs on this account or PM me on mastodon at @Scraft161@tsukihi.me. (this goes for any anime community; discoverability on lemmy is pretty lackluster)

Just came across it and it's more relevant today than when it was posted

They could bother with pulse, but IDK how portable the API for that is, also discord working on Linux is more accidental and this getting fixed might just be because they want it fixed on the Mac side too.

It's sad to see that discord has waited over 8 years to do this, but the whole thing is soydev code anyways.

From what I can tell they are working on updating their electron version to one that is aware of pipewire, this is the first part of solving the issue (especially for Wayland folks), the second part is just fixing some code in the client to deal with that and then it should be fixed until we deprecate pipewire in 2079. Additionally it would make discord finally act as a native Wayland app instead of being forced in xwayland.

Yup, this is the whole point of federation instead of just decentralisation.

This stuff is honestly incredible and the more I learn about it the more there is to appreciate.

I heard of MakeMKV before, thing is that I generally don't buy blu-rays because of the downright horrible DRM schemes.

if DRM makes it harder for me to enjoy the content I bought and paid for (this includes limiting me to some lowres garbage even though my system is more than capable of playing HD and FHD video) compared to what I would get if I were to pirate it then it's a problem of distribution; not one of morality.

you will always have some group that pirates your content no matter what; but if buying gives me a worse product because of artificial restrictions put on it I can't give any less of a shit.
there's very few streaming platforms that even give me a decent option (and I don't even properly own my library; all I get is a license to watch/listen to something, one that could be revoked at any time in the future without me being able to do anything except complain about it).

Most dvd's should be fine as VLC can play almost any of them.

BD is where things get complicated because of DRM, expect almost none of them to work thanks to big corpo telling us what we can and can't do with something you bought and paid for (sadly enough streaming doesn't get much better either)

I love how musk is trying to make X the everything app all on his centralized network, and here we are building a decentralized everything network with dozens of open platforms and good 3rd party clients outpacing whatever musk is trying to cook.

I've been using Vendetta with a custom stylesheet for mobile which does the AMOLED theme much better than discord, haven't used the new app yet and I'm honestly contemplating whether I should get the old android native app running again.

Looks very interesting, love to see how well it works (and interoperates between different fediverse platforms)

Tbh, I would not mind a proper chat standard built on activitypub, it's obvious that this protocol works, now if only somebody built a secure messaging platform with it.

[–] Scraft161@iusearchlinux.fyi 3 points 10 months ago (2 children)

It's because they rewrote the app from the ground up. They had a lot of issues getting the AMOLED theme to work because the base of the entire thing was written with the idea that there will only ever be 2 themes.
