Thanks for that - much appreciated. Sorry I failed to respond earlier, I’m still getting used to the fediverse, and seem to have managed to get multiple accounts so… yeah

What’s MARS? I couldn’t find any reference that seemed to match due to… well, the ambiguitiy of the name :D

Oh… Trackers. That takes me back, I think I’ve still got some mod files from old BBS copy cd’s from the late 80’s and early 90’s…

And the kbin.social formatting:

Accessing through kbin.social and the table format is not formatted correctly. Assume this is a kbin-problem, not a bot-problem, as looking at it through sh.itjust.works formats correctly…

I wanna see it, so here’s another comment to boost - let’s get to 5 and test this bot :P

That’s the one - thanks, I’d forgotten where it was and didn’t read your comment before putting mine in place

If you go into the developer settings area (Can’t remember what it’s called) you can turn on extra development sources, in which case you can trunk-level daily updates.

I’ve updated the Deck to ‘main’ release channel 3.5, though technically that’s “tinkering”, but - it makes a much wider list of things work really, really well. Currently playing through XenoBlade Chronicles and Breath of the Wild (Switch versions) and both seem to play really, really well. I don’t have the framerate display on, I’ve not tweaked power settings or anything, I just run them…

The SMT improvements I believe are in the 3.5 main-branch release, so that’s probably why… seems to work well.

Let’s go!

What The Fuck?!

Thanks for the tip. I really loathe having to do tihs as it doesn’t help mobile, but at least I can auto-sync across desktop browsers :/

That’s exactly the problem. Parts of the cookie banner are from the same domain, but then other parts are from the advertisers domain. So blocking the advertiser blocks bits of the banner, meaning you cannot click on the banner, because it’s just not letting you do so.

I’ll second the Spigen case, it’s really nice feeling, while being slim enough to work with the official carrying case. Also their screen protector works really well, and takes that stupid anti-glare fuzz off the 512GB model, so it’s a nice smooth screen again :D (Yeah, that’s very, very opinionated, but it’s my opinion. Won’t work if you like the fuzz, get another screen protector :D) The Spigen protector was also stupidly easy to fit - basically, if you cock up a Spigen install using either their EZ Fit or GAStR Align Master brands, you’ve really, really rushed it and haven’t reviewed any of the docs or the install videos, because they’re amazingly easy to install.

I’ve got a powerful desktop computer, but I also have a 6 year old daughter and very little personal time. Grabbing the deck and playing alongside / with (for instance, both of us playing Minecraft, me on the deck, her on the PS5; or her playing on the PS5 while I play separately on the Deck) is a big thing. Also I have been emulating a lot, as she’s stolen my switch so I can play on that. It’s nice to be able to whack headphones in and game for 10 or 20 minutes in bed before sleep… Honestly, it broke and had to be RMA’d, and I missed it so much because the ‘instant on’ play for a few minutes is just so addictive…

I use it for emulation, (up to PS3 / Switch level works perfectly with a beta 3.5 OS with the SMT fixes), AAA gaming (Hogwarts legacy worked perfectly for the screen size at medium), old games, indie games, GamePass streaming, PS5 streaming…

It was a birthday present that I thought I’d use a reasonable amount. However, it’s almost taken over my gaming time because even if I want to run something too powerful for the deck, I often don’t want to sit infront of my home office PC (As I spend all day there working) and I can just stream from the PC using SteamLink / Sunlight:Moonlight… It’s basically only when I want to play at full-screen 4K and have a few hours to myself I bother to game on the PC.

I’ve been using Sync for many years, and I’ll be switching over. I started with sh.itjust.works, and have moved to kbin.social because it supports a proper OAuth login process… I’ve read some people suggesting that kbin is a slightly differnet API than other federation sources, but… if it takes time, I’ll wait, no worries. Or I’ll create another account somewhere else… I think porting accounts and such is something that needs to be better handled, as does such a lot of the UI across all the different federation instances, but hopefully that’s something Sync can handle :) Thanks for your hard work, and you can guarantee that if you offer it, I’ll be going lifetime subscriber again. Totally worth it.
