I haven’t tried it yet, but I think crosscraft is also targeting the 3ds. I wonder how it compares

Firefox is also the last “major browser” that isn’t based on Chromium. Just another contemporary example of how market consolidation and monopolization harms consumers!

Migrating my workflow to NixOS right now, and it’s really made me realize just how good Arch Wiki is. NixOS and Nix are a bit disjointed in terms of documentation and learning resources. But Arch Wiki usually helps me gain intuition for which software does what and what traits I’m able to configure.

Non-Arch-Linux Linux users should absolutely consider the Arch Wiki when troubleshooting or learning about the Linux ecosystem! I’m not sure there’s a better broadly-applicable resource out there.

Hmm. Essential Mod adds paid, bedrock-style cosmetics to Java. They do help offset the costs of their servers, which are necessary for letting players join friends directly (without UPnP, vpn or port forwarding). These cosmetics are visible to other essential players, and equivalents (3d character additions) are not freely attainable without another mod.

“Essential” taints any Java modpack in my opinion.

I can’t speak to their Bedrock Marketplace content. I dislike the Bedrock Marketplace and think it is full of (and heavily advertises) low-quality, overpriced slop, and that Microsoft takes far too big of a share, but if Spark’s content is well-made, I think it’s fair to sell.

With the alternative being CurseForge, I’ll still probably continue to use Modrinth as a content creator and as a player. I’m cautious about this, though.

Like how he’s the chief engineer of SpaceX. With no qualifications.

Oh well, at least his Path of Exile account was probably legit. /s
