I don't use many extensions, but apart from the usual UBlock Origin I'll say something exotic: UltraWideo

Because sites like disney+ still don't know that 21:9 monitors exist so you have to force it to scale their 21:9 films to your monitor instead of giving you black bars on all sides

I feel you. When creating an UI you can think of thousands of possibilities which might not be clear to someone and design it in a way that couldn't possibly be misunderstood, then show it to different people who all agree that it's clearly structured and logical..... and the minute you release it you get posts from users where you ask yourself how they could even exist on their own.

But that only helps in knowing which communities I can see, I still don't know how much I'm missing out in the comments on other communities because some of them might be from people my instance has defederated.

I noticed this today when I had a comment chain on lemmy.world that I accessed with my lemm.ee instance. That chain was >10 posts long with several different users from different instances.
When I looked into that community with my feddit.de account, I could only see the first two comments of that chain, not even my own lemm.ee comments were visible despite not being blocked by feddit.de.
It was because the third post of that chain was made by a user on an instance that is blocked by feddit.de and that lead to all following posts also missing.
So now I’m feeling like I’m possibly missing big parts of all those comment sections just because they happen to include a comment from a user somewhere early in the chain that is on an instance which is blocked by my instance.

That's the reason despite me being german I probalby won't use feddit.de anymore because, at least for the time being, lemm.ee doesn't have anyone blocked so in this specific example I can at least see everything posted on lemmy.world that isn't already blocked by lemmy.world itself(which is only 1 at this time compared to 47 on feddit). While with feddit.de, browsing on lemmy.world I won't see things blocked by lemmy.world aswell as things blocked by feddit.de

Reddit isn’t totally free of this problem (feature) either–You can have multiple subreddits dedicated to the same topic.

True, but there you don't have the problem that you can access subreddit "gamingB" but not "gamingA" because you happen to be logged in on an instance that defederated "gamingA".

You can just access all of the different subreddits with one account and freely choose on which on you'd like to post and always able to see every post ever made in every sub.

With Lemmy as it is now, I don't even know if the posts I see in a community on InstanceA really are all posts because there might be posts made by people on InstanceB that is blocked by InstanceC that I'm accessing the community of InstanceA with.
That's my biggest concern right now.

Hell, I don't even know if you can see this post because it could be that your instance defederated from my instance.

It's also heavily dependend on getting used to it. There are games that have a quality and a performance mode where I sometimes start to think I'm at 60FPS until I switch to the actual 60FPS mode and realize that it's a completely different feeling. Switching back lets those 30FPS seem pretty bad. But if I didn't had the possibility of switching between those two, I would've been happy with the 30.

But as you said it has to be rock stable. I played GoW Ragnarök on my PS5 and that Quality 30FPS mode was just terrible and felt like 20FPS. That of the Final Fantasy 16 Demo is better but here it's not so much the choppy feeling but the overdone motion blur that bugs me enough to wan't toi switch to the 45-60FPS mode

Remember Red Dead Redemption 2? On PC, your stats depleted faster the more FPS you had so with 60FPS you'd get hungry twice as fast as with 30FPS. Iirc even the sun moved faster so a day was only half as long.

I never thought that these two could be pronounced the same. I pronounce of as in office whereas 've is either pronounced as in have or as in effective (or more like a mix between that and e sound and an "ö" from german) depending on how quick I want to say it.

Ich hab mich beim Lesen der Begründung erst mal gefragt, ob denn genau angekündigt wurde, welche Straßen blockiert werden, ansonsten hätte ja absolut JEDER, der in Berlin unterwegs ist, laut Gericht vorsorglich auf den ÖPNV umsteigen können.

Da würde ich bezweifeln, dass der ÖPNV diese Kapazitäten hat. Ich war zwar erst einmal für ein paar Tage in Berlin, aber die U-Bahnen und Busse waren schon immer recht voll, trotz gleichzeitig voller Straßen. Und Busse fallen ja eh weg, denn diese sind ja genau so betroffen wie Autos, bleibt eigentlich nur die U-Bahn. Also meint das Gericht, dass sämtliche Leute, die in ihren privat Autos und in Bussen unterwegs sind, in die U-Bahn passen würden, wenn das als Alternative genannt wird?
