Good point, thats the correct way to look at it.

I’ve never heard of Orkut, the only Google social network I ever used was Google+. When I first heard about Facebook I couldn’t even sign up because my college wasn’t a supported .edu…lol and I guess the Facebook format/design isn’t inherently bad, just the algorithm is horrendous. There are more adds and post from suggested groups than people and groups I follow on my feed. Then the post from Threads a social network I don’t even use forced on me and adds in the notifications. It’s just a garbage experience and way of going about things. Although it’s still hard to see the point of an alternative that the people I know IRL aren’t on when I have Mastodon, BlueSky and Lemmy for like minded people.

Sure but what’s the point of feeding a question that is basically irrelevant to the post. This isn’t about a stock PS1. Of course you can get one cheaper and it can’t do a fraction of what this can.

I saw someone suggest Yandex as a Google substitute in de-Google thread recently…lol

You realize this has a lot more features than original PS1 hardware, right?

Mastodon is fine. The fediverse doesn’t have to pretend like it has alternatives for every social media network overnight. People expect semi equivalent experiences to apps developed by massive teams and corporations.

Why does software have a political stance?

I and lots of other people are actually using both platforms. That’s why apps like Openvibe exist.

The game exists on multiple platforms. These are just fun programming challenges for people. They’re not intended for widespread appeal. But people will find them, play them and have fun with them.

Thanks for the recommendation and I’ll check it out. Skiing would be a terrible name to search…lol

And that makes it a Facebook replacement how? Facebook is terrible and the only reason I ever go there is to check in on people I know. I don’t understand Friendica at all. I can get all the social interaction I need from Mastodon, BlueSky and Lemmy if my goal isn’t people I know and just like minded people.

Skiing Yeti Mountain?

The Game Boy was instrumental in game history and this was one of the first and most played games on the system.

While not part of the fidiverse but still decentralized BlueSky would be the place to go for sports content.

Don’t forget to save them to Pocket!
