Some Mastodon apps are build different than others - seeing everything in the fediverse in c/fediverse@lemmy.world

What about the user side? If I want to pick an instance that uses a relay, is there a way to know?

Could you expand on the relay thing? How does one know if a server uses a relay?

According to this post Mammoth.

I haven't tried it though.

That is a nice UI but still has the same problems as the official app. It doesn't show all the interactions.

So I know that there are some limitations for federation, especially if you are on a smaller instance. On Mastodon I stumble upon this problem on a daily basis. Here is an example. My account is on a smaller local instance (social.cologne) and in the following picture is a post of Eugen Rochko (which I follow):

As you can see there appears to be 0 likes and 0 boosts, below are 2 conmments (not pictured). As far as I understand this is a result of federation. My instance only tracks likes and boost of my instance (and people who are followed on my instance) and as a result his post seems to be not popular at all.

Too see every interaction I would have to visit the original post on Eugens instance (https://mastodon.social/@Gargron/112574727273953783). Currently there are 6 boosts and 64 favorites on this post, with 4 replies below.

Last year I stumbled upon an android app that is able to show me the full interactions without visiting the source instance manually (https://github.com/tooot-app).

This is how I see Eugens post in my timeline

(Same as official app) and when i click on it to see the replies, the full content is shown.

I'm assuming that the app is loading the full content manually - just like if you would open the source instance.

Shouldn't this behaviour be the default - even in the main mastodon app? If I where to only use the official app I would miss most of the interactions and content (from people my instance doesnt know about). There are other examples where you would see replies to posts that allegedly don't exists. Only with Tooot I can see the rest of the conversation.

The tooot app didn't see any updates for some time... Are there any other apps that show full interactions right away as well?

Helldivers 2 no longer working? in c/steamdeck@sopuli.xyz

Did you change the video settings to full screen? I don't have experience with my steam deck and this game, but on my main arch setup I had to change to borderless full screen again. Game wouldn't load otherwise. You either have to change or delete the config. Check ProtonDB for the correct config path.

Anyone tried CableMate with the longer cable that came with the Steam Deck Oled? (feddit.de)
 

Website states that they haven't tried it yet. Does someone own one with an Oled Cable and wants to try it out? Would be appreciated.

Cheers

Probably helpful for Steam Deck OLED users or for people with external HDR displays.

On the current Beta branch (3.5.5 and upwards) you can filter for games that support HDR on the shop.

Go to store

-> Select 'Search Steam' on the top row on the far right

-> Press Y (Filter)

-> Check 'HDR available' under 'Narrow by feature'

They're currently only 44 games total tagged like this, but maybe the developers still have add the tag.

Viewing a games Store page you can also see the tag 'HDR available' under 'Features'.

Same for your library, the HDR checkbox is in the Hardware Support category there.

Is this an historical thing? I was really confused when I started using KDE.
