Sky Rogue on Steam

Sky Rogue is a fwooshy rogue-lite action flight simulator! Blow things up over land, sea, and air, on an infinite number of procedurally-generated islands. Go toe-to-toe with enemy aces or assault giant flying aircraft carriers, but watch out for volleys of missiles; when you die, you're dead.

@foone one of the reasons I moved to fedi in the first place was because a friend or two moved to lethallava.land years ago, so I not only had a figure of reference for guidance but also an instance recommendation, on top of having reached my breaking point with twitter

without a "burst" of motivation like that I find it hard to believe someone is just gonna hop on fedi because of mild dissatisfaction with bsky

@foone I don't really buy the "people want to be breathed down their necks by hostile ceos" theory that I've seen a lot in replies, I rather think it's just that fedi is just too complicated to get into without some dedication (not needed to get into other socials) and without guidance from a friend

fragmentation of not only instances but also software, including cases where certain software doesn't fully support things that other ones do (the most popular of those cases being vanilla mastodon not supporting reactions), does a mighty good job at holding people off I believe

and then there's the problem of fedi just not having the topics and people potential users might wanna see here (artists/friends they know...)

so in the end I think people unsatisfied with bsky just don't look at fedi because it has a reputation of being complicated/jank (which would absolutely be correct)

idk why they made this a clickbait but the article is about infrasound's impact on stress levels

Scientists Investigated a Frequency Linked to ‘Paranormal’ Encounters. The Results Were Unsettling.

Humans can’t hear low-frequency “infrasound,” but a new study demonstrates that it raises our stress levels and triggers an “unsettling” feeling that could be linked to people’s experiences in haunted locations.
