Cake day: July 8th, 2023

  • I’ve been gaming since C64 days. We had the problem of too many games already back then. Hundreds of pirated games on disks and most of them weren’t even good.

    The other day I felt the urge to play a new game from the “dead” point & click adventure genre. Filtered my Steam games and even found a relatively recent one with full Steam Deck support that was given away for free.

    And I think I can do that with basically any genre.

    Great indy titles get released all the time. Emulation gives me the ability to play almost everything from the entire history of gaming. Or just play one of my favourites. I just have to reach out and play. 2023 was an amazing year for gaming. 2025 wasn’t bad either.

    Sure, bad games get made as well. But when I feel down I can just stop playing those and play Diarrhea 4 instead.




















  • That’s what the scaled sort is supposed to solve. It pushes up posts that are popular relative to other posts in their communities. So even if they regularly get 0 upvotes they should still show up.

    I use the scaled sort on subscribed together with hiding read posts and marking posts as read when I scroll by. That way I usually see the posts made in smaller communities fairly regularly.
