Go is fairly straight forward to get started with so imagine most resources will suffice especially if they have some interactive elements; example: https://www.learn-go.net/

Also recommend covering part of the board at first to make a smaller 13x13 or even 9x9 board to learn on as the full 19x19 can be quite daunting for someone completely new to the game.

Also try not to stress about winning too much at first; just play a lot, lose plenty and you’ll naturally start picking up some of the patterns that tend to form as you play.

Mostly Pandora for music discovery with some occasional Spotify mixed in

yt-dlp to download a few favorites to listen to in car via phone

Oohhh, yes, those are quite nice 🐝

+1 for DDG

And thank you for reminding about bangs

Local

I’m sorting by New and watching what comes through to see what I want to ensure I’m subscribed to as well as what to block. I’ll likely stay on local most of the time.

I find All to be jarring when several posts load from other instances and only switch to it when exploring other community options.

My longest running self-host is the RSS reader Tiny Tiny RSS running on a Digital Ocean droplet with Ubuntu 22.04

It would be nice to see a new home for Tabletop Game Design; much enjoyed the discussions around both role playing and board/card games alike.

Just reinstalled Guild Wars 2; recalled enjoying my time there long while back and was glad to see Steam installs it just fine for playing on Linux.

Yeah, definitely avoid anything divisive; thanks :)

Not sure about an entire instance however looks like you can browse their community list and subscribe to them individually:

Does Lemmy have any way of rewarding members who donate similar to Patreon such as differences in avatars, personal community, etc. ?

Thank you for mentioning Jerboa; installed and quite happy with it so far.

Mostly board games; taught couple of our older boys Scythe and then got in several rounds of Turing Machine.

Recently started Homeworld Mobile on phone and liking it so far.

Also planning to tinker with merging Color My Quest (ttrpg) with Wallet Dungeons to play with our younger kiddos.
