Well, ir’s obviously not balanced for vanilla. But I had talked to the quite a while ago now. And they did try to walk a fine balance of being useful and fun, but not too over the top. They apply limitations where it makes sense for them.
Especially since there is PvP.
If you liked Hex Casting, or even Psi. This should be right up your alley. It’s also less tedious than either of them I would say.
It is, but it already has all the services that most would use with big QoL features compared to Redirector. Namely quickly adding and removing instances, and quickly enabling and disabling redireciton for specific services. And is a lot easier to use in general especially for people who don’t know regex.
Plus Libredirect has a few features that redirector doesn’t, the ability to redirect to multiple different instances, and the ability to redirect embedded content such as any embedded youtube videos on any other website.
But as you said, redirector is more flexible if you need it for something other than the ~20 services that LibRedirect handles.
From the Docs link available at the bottom right of any lemmy page, in “4. Votes and Ranking” :
- Active (default): Calculates a rank based on the score and time of the latest comment, with decay over time
- Hot: Like active, but uses time when the post was published
Yeah that mod is really cool. The magic writing system is fucking awesome.
Even cooler than Hex Casting in my opinion (which is already super cool).
And It’s quite a bit easier to work with since it’s not stack-based and that you can edit different parts of you spell/program at any point.
