I feel like half the time that I don't go with tree supports my prints end up failing and the other half ends up wasting a ton of plastic.

I don't see why they would bother with the fediverse as it exists to be honest. To me it seems like a liability from their point of view. Not sure if they've spoken more about this but Facebook getting in more shit by having their users exposed to stuff that they don't explicitly control doesn't seem like something they'd want.

That being said, I feel like defederating with them if needed is a solid idea but their sheer size may make that decision difficult for instances that are looking to grow given that they've already amassed twice the accounts of the Lemmy fediverse in a few hours. Now not all growth is good growth like you've mentioned but there's no partial defederation so either you leech on some of their userbase or you don't.

I see some places going for growth if that's an option which may not necessarily be a bad choice (unless they impose strict rules to follow if you want to federate with them) given that facebook has the capital to bury us with if they choose to so our compliance probably won't have a very big impact on how things play out in the long run.

Legends arceus is the best pokemon experience in my opinion as someone who's played all games and most spinoffs. However, the other switch games don't stand out as much (Let's go is fun for gen 1 nostalgia but the diamond/pearl remake is very basic) so a 3DS is better "value". That being said, only get a 3DS if you wanna mod it to pirate the games because used pokemon prices are completely insane these days and its nintendo so ¯\(ツ)

You can also play legends arceus and the other Switch games on PC via emulator. Same with 3DS but the actual hardware is a much nicer experience for obvious reasons. If you go with Switch then I suggest Arceus and Let's Go and if you go with 3DS I would suggest Black/White (and BW2 if you enjoy the first game) and, Omega Ruby/Alpha Sapphire and Ultra Sun/Moon (they also all have ROM hacks for difficulty/extra mons).

Not yet available as others have said. It's been requested and the request was greenlit but it still needs someone to implement the feature: https://github.com/LemmyNet/lemmy/issues/2397

Facebook marketplace is probably a good idea if that's active in your area. It's not old or new enough to have much eyes on it so you'll probably have a fairly easy time finding one.

L means loss meaning you took the loss/said something dumb. Ratio means the ratio of replies to likes is high meaning people also think you've said something dumb and are arguing with you about it. Comes from Twitter but used more generally now (mostly ironically).

Life but not necessarily human life.

We're projected to reach temperatures not seen in more than an estimated 20 million years due to our actions within a couple centuries. Harder may end up being a massive understatement.
