Started playing after the Pathfinder update, and pretty much played non-stop for the next few days.
Trying to convince my friends to play now lol.

2013 for me. There definitely was a shift in volatility in 2016, but I felt there was a far more drastic shift in 2019.
Around 2019 is when I noticed that shift.
Xbox One/Series controller.
I loved the 360 controller before, but once I got an Xbone, it felt like the controller was perfectly formed for my hands. The triggers felt incredible, the bumpers were fantastic, and I was addicted to the tire tread texture on the thumbsticks. Later revisions solidified my love for it, adding a 3.5mm jack and USB-C.
Honkai Star Rail. It's kinda, uh, the default, since it's the only game that's released this year I've played lmao.
Pokemon Red++. Was a fun ROM Hack that just added a ton of QoL. Last original game though? Probably Scarlet Nexus.
Oh damn, really? That's funny. I thought the microblogs and Mastodon integration just shared the same area, but goes to show how much I know lmao.
As part of the DDoS protection, kbin's currently not federated as to not get more traffic from other places in the fediverse. I believe you can still see lemmy communities and subscribe to them, but there's not really much there currently because kbin's not federating.
I'm completely new to the whole fediverse thing though, so I could be talking out of my ass regarding why it's not federating.
I've made accounts on lemmy.ml, lemmy.ca, requested beehaw.org, and here, but probably going to stick with here for UI reasons plus I like the microblogs for things that don't exactly warrant a post. The Mastodon integration is neat, but I doubt I'll really use it since I never used Mastodon before.
Probably going to stick around here and Tildes (though that's not the fediverse). Subscribed to a bunch of communities in the various lemmy instances before federation was took down for a bit, so hopefully one niche community grows there. Made one of my own for a relatively niche game I play (it's a decently popular game, but it's definitely niche).
What do you mean, the same song lyrics or an endless string of "nice" after the number 69 show up is sooooooooo funny the umpteenth time.
Oh man, that'd annoy so many people that are pedantic, including me lmao.
I think of this like game servers.
The site you're using is your platform (kbin=pc, mastodon=xbox, lemmy=ps). After that, the instances are what servers you connect to (lemmy.ca=psNA, whatever on mastodon=xboxSEA, kbin.social=pcEU. Then, federation is bringing it all together with crossplay.
Made a bit of sense to me, so hopefully this helps!
