Octopath Traveler II is great so far, I'm about early-mid game. I played the first, and I felt it was too similar, but the day and night system is great, the characters are still pretty charming, and apparently there's completely new classes that we can get from randos, which blew my mind when I found my first brand new class. The world design is fucking gorgeous ๐Ÿ˜

Yup, me and my sister did occasional Pokemon battles/trading and Mario Kart races with each other using the Download Play or whatever it was called. I think even 3DS had it, or something similar to that effect. I just wish I had enough friends who actually played Pokemon back then, cause at my elementary school only one friend had a 3DS and played Pokemon. Everyone else was too busy trying to be "cool" and play GTA and CoD ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

Even YT on browser for both my tablet and laptop have gotten mad at me and thrown a hissy for forcing me to login. Less of a problem on my Laptop, because I use Freetube to watch on there, and on my Phone I use Revanced. But man, I just hate watching on my Kindle now, because that shit is old and can barely run Firefox (got it via aurora store, not even in the Amazon appstore ๐Ÿ˜ญ) and YT on browser is ass. I tried NewPipe and it crashed all the time, so I got the for PipePipe cause I'm a weeabo, and it worked well but now I get the blocked IP every other day. My tablet crashed when I tried to download Revanced YT on there, so I gave up.

I can finally say that I'm making the move to Linux now, as I'm dual booting Fedora. I plan to try to do my regular browsing and activity on Fedora, while keeping my school work and what little gaming I do (laptop user) on Windows. Hell, once I get confident enough in my Linux skills, I'll probably move the school stuff over to Fedora too.

I'm doing it mostly cause I've read the privacy horror stories, but also because I just hated Windows 11. Like there's nothing about it that is worth staying for... The excessive resource use, random settings being changed that you have to dig to find, the shitty Co-Pilot ads, and the fact I won't be able to use office once I graduate... Yeah no.

Good thing is I'm a cyber student, so guess I'm just getting a head start for a easier grade in my future Linux class lol.

So I've been getting more into the Fediverse, as I already had a Mastodon account for a bit. But I've joined Lemmy (love it btw, used to login to Reddit before API death โšฐ๏ธ๐Ÿ•Š๏ธ) and am thinking of joining Misskey since there's such a huge Japanese speaking community there.

But is it a good idea, and has anyone here joined? I can read decently, I'm playing Ace Attorney 5 in Japanese (finished the 1st case), I'm doing a Wanikani beginner bookclub that seems right around my level, and I'm almost done with Genki 2 (Quartet books already ordered). So I feel like this is prime time for doing more immersing and interacting with Japanese content.

Which server did you join, main, or a more niche one? Did you focus purely on the theme/content of the server?

I like games, anime, and fanart, and I'm okay with some NSFW, but I'm a little afraid of the misskey servers cause the big art ones are full of hentai/NSFW (Pawoo...). I won't go on a crusade if I see some loli art, but I don't want it shoved in my face every 3 posts.

I'm currently thinking of joining the Splatoon themed server, ใ„ใ‹ใ™ใใƒผ.
