I’ll plug my own podcast, Find the Path. We get a lot of feedback that people really like our roleplay and how we aren’t a “comedy” podcast. We have a few different shows that cover different genres. We play Pathfinder 1st and 2nd edition but you don’t need to know the rules to enjoy the show.
I recommend starting with Hell’s Rebels since it’s our most polished public show. Link to it all is on our website https://find-path.com
That game HAS to be played with headphones or a super good surround sound. The directionality of the voices in Senua’s head is next level.
Gacha games completely turn me off. I just hate random loot boxes or other gimmicks to get you to spend money for the chance at getting something neat.
Not in its current form. Anyone who’s tried to start a tech company knows you have to make your solution simple to use. Making software easy to use is actually surprisingly hard, involving experts in user interfaces, a lot of thought on user onboarding and training.
Lemmy as it currently stands is relatively new-user hostile for non-technical users. Content discovery isn’t very clear, people are confused about how to find communities to follow, and the mobile apps are barebones.
That’s not to say it can’t get there, but until you never need to mention that the system is federated, I think a lot of people will be turned off from the complexity of using Lemmy. The community right now is motivated to use Lemmy and I would imagine a little more on the technical side, but getting your parents to use Lemmy or Mastadon would be a challenge currently.
My first thought as well. Should have called it Diabetes Jelly.
