My son is autistic, and eats almost exclusively breaded chicken for dinner (tenders, nuggets and the like), so the air fryer is a lifesaver. I can quickly could cook a small amount of these really quickly. So it gets used adviser l almost every day in our house. I also use it for all sorts of other food fairly frequently.

I say there are three main things you might want to consider when choosing a mastodon instance, and these also apply to Lemmy.

The first is the native content of the server. You can follow anyone on any server (I'm not aware of any defederation drama over there like we recently had on Lemmy), but you do get a feed of local posts, which can be a good place to start when you are brand new.

The second is any local server rules. Instances can have rules around what types of content you can post (nsfw for example), and around content warnings (a lot of OG Mastodon users are really big on that). You should make sure you are happy with the rules before joining a server.

The last is the ongoing reliability of a server. I'd avoid joining anything really new or super small.

You can tryinstances.social. It asks you a few questions, and offers suggestions.

I'm currently playing through this, and it's such an awesome remake, probably the best I've ever seen. I never managed to get through the original, after playing the second in the series. It was just too janky and old for me at the time.

These guys have managed to make it highly playable without erasing the spirit of the original game. I love the mixed up high poly low Res textures.

I know this title has had a bit of a messy history with kickstarters and delays, but it really feels like a labour of love, and I can see why they wouldn't want to release it until it was ready.

Why not just replace them all with Lemmy newbie guides, or links to similar?

I have had at least a dozen instances where I have done a Google search for a problem, and clicked a Reddit link without thinking, only to get hit with a private message. I do have an unusual number of problems per day (software dev who seems to spend their evenings trying stupid technical stuff), but I guarantee the impact is not seen on Reddit, but in the many users who never get there.
