I’m trying to get away from corporate owned software and support FOSS stuff.

Normally if I wanted to play a game online I would use a discord server and some kind of vtt. Since discord is not looking great rn, where would you guys recommend playing?

Any vtt recs are good too but I don’t strictly need one. A way to chat and roll dice is essential though

    I’m surprised anyone on Lemmy isn’t aware of that one. I 100% would have spelled it out of not for the fact that this audience is 95% Linux nerds.

      It means the bare is lower than before and some people out of this group can find interest and access the platform. This is very good. Let’s welcome them.

          I don’t know what the implied demographic is, but I assume I am not in it. I suppose that vibe is part of why I don’t feel the desire to venture further into the fediverse.

            Please stay and voice this point of view. Itis needed for the medium to reach a healthy level.

            I don’t know what the implied demographic is, but I assume I am not in it.

            The demographic is people who care more about being free from corporate controlled media than they care about a shiny, polished user experience. (i.e. free open source software [FOSS] enthusiasts) This is necessarily the case because of the relationship between sites like Lemmy and sites like, say Reddit. Reddit is absolutely more polished, but Lemmy is more resistant to enshittifcation.

            Naturally tech nerds are both more aware of the dangers of corporate controlled software and more able to make the switch, so you get a lot of them as your early adopters.

            I suppose that vibe is part of why I don’t feel the desire to venture further into the fediverse.

            I really hope you change your mind. Both because Lemmy definitely feels “further in” than something like mastodon or pixelfed, but also because these sites really do need mainstream adoption in order to compete with the tech giants.
