Risa is already here! I wish I knew how to link other communities 😅

Star Trek TNG Season 2 Episode 9 The Measure Of A Man in c/startrek@startrek.website

Yea, I usually tell people to watch this episode then jump to season 3. If they love the show they’ll obviously go back to season 1 out of a curiosity

Hope your day improves. Never a good time for a flat tire

### Threads vs microblogs? ### in c/RedditMigration@kbin.social

[–] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 3 points 2 years ago

A thread is a Reddit equivalent and a microblog is a Twitter equivalent. So it really depends if you’re trying to start a discussion or just want to put something out there in my opinion

Came across [Bookwyrm](https://bookwyrm.social/) which is the feediverse alternative to Goodreads. I've been searching for a proper Goodreads replacement for so long, and this finally looks like the r in c/random@kbin.social

Yea, I’ve been enjoying Bookwyrm. Crazy how the fediverse is capable of providing everything. We just need more people willing to donate interested

Same. If I wasn’t still getting Hulu for free I’d be out

Good sources for News and Updates? in c/technology@lemmy.world

[–] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 3 points 2 years ago

I’d recommend an RSS Reader. For example if you use Inoreader and subscribe to “tech” you’ll get a folder of a bunch of popular tech websites. Obviously you should get them yourselves too. But RSS is a great way to get a lot of news quickly and see consensus

So, where do we go now? in c/technology@lemmy.world

[–] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 6 points 2 years ago

This was my thought. First major outlet I’ve seen to even acknowledge Lemmy/Kbin…even if it’s to say they suck 😂

Check out Bookwrym. I’m currently maintaining that and Goodreads, but can’t wait until I can drop Goodreads

What's your favorite RSS Reader? in c/apple_enthusiast@lemmy.world

[–] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 4 points 2 years ago (1 children)

I use Inoreader and have been very happy with it

What do you think the Switch successor should be called? Keep the Switch name or nah? in c/nintendo@lemmy.world

[–] WonkoTheSane@geddit.social 0 points 2 years ago

I do like the Super Switch. But if the Switch is the standard going forward it’ll make the 3rd iteration a little difficult to name. So Switch 2 is fine

But we’re also assuming they’re going to make a Switch successor. Hopefully that is the case but I don’t quite trust Nintendo not to screw this up
