They're good. My yubikey works flawlessly, though very few sites/apps support them.

My experience is only with Lemmy.

Pros:

  • My app functions

Cons:

  • Significantly reduced amount of content
  • Most of my content from Reddit is not available here or has an incredibly small community
  • A tremendous number of posts are polarized to the point of being aggressive
  • A disturbingly large number of openly suicidal comments (Eg. "I see no reason to live except..." )
  • Seemingly every climate-related post has someone stating "eat the rich" as a solution to the climate

Overall, mostly negative, but since the alternative for me is nothing (my Reddit client of choice doesn't work), it's still better than nothing and is something to scroll through briefly while on the toilet.

I use KeePassXC, but am assuming KeePass is very similar.

You'll have a single file on your machine that is your encrypted password database. Syncing is not handled by KeePass and is your responsibility.

If you want to sync only when you get home, as long as your sync app that is fine with it, KeePass won't know or care.

Keep in mind if you make changes on two devices without keeping them in sync, one will probably get overwritten unless you take special care to handle it. (My sync app warns me, then I take both conflicting files and in the KeePass app, I can merge them to solve the conflict without data loss.)

It's exceedingly rare, but there's one case where a game can disappear from your Steam library: keys.

Game developers/publishers have the ability to revoke keys at any point, and that can result in games disappearing from your library.

I'm yet to hear of Valve themselves making a purchase inaccessible, but I have had keys get revoked. For example, free Gleam keys that add shovelware to your library.

Even games that Valve banned from sale on Steam can be activated and added to your account using keys. I believe that people who purchased the game also get to keep their purchase even if it's later banned from sale.

Excuse me what the fuck?

Infinity broke, so now I have something new to scroll through while on the toilet.

[-] Clearwater@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Funnily enough, I was using Infinity. Once it broke, I just did a quick switch to Eternity and was happy. I hardly notice a difference except that the content, while there's much less of it, is also a lot more interesting to read.

I got a Lemmy account with the main exodus, but my 3rd party Reddit app continued to work (though it slowly broke bit by bit) until just a couple days ago when it completely stopped working at all.

Now I've fully swapped off of Reddit and onto Lemmy.

No reputable registrar requires you to run an executable on your machine. JavaScript is as far as it'll get.

I'm sure many registrars work without JS, but if I had to be sure of any one in particular, it'd be Njalla. They even have an onion site and accept monero, so they almost certainly function without JS.

At least be honest and say this post is an ad.
