I just hope there will be a way to completely block [...] users including their comments.

Remember who the developers are.

Reddit made my anxiety flare, I was too addicted to it, and it was way too toxic.

Lemmy can do/be that too, thanks to tankies and shitty moderators, and toxic leftover users from Reddit who bring their toxicity here.

This will never be more than a below average Reddit clone.

The code of Lemmy/Kbin/Mbin can be improved, even by anyone. Can the code of Reddit be improved by anyone?

We are better off trying to change sites like Twitter and Reddit from within.

OK, then tell us how we can run for a CEO position of Twitter or Reddit, so we can change them from within. Otherwise, no, we can't.

No, what I meant was to try recording video with ffmpeg, then open another terminal and record audio with ffmpeg. Does the video look ok when recorded like this?

Well, surprisingly, it works. Video runs smoothly, and I can merge the separate audio file to it witk Kdenlive. So, I guess the problem is solved. But I don't understand why it works this way and not with a single command in one terminal.

Crazy idea, but what happens if you record audio and video with different ffmpeg processes?

I also tried that with the -map parameter, if that's what you mean. Same outcome.

Also, you mentioned this works better with other software — any idea if those settings are drastically different than your ffmpeg settings?

SimpleScreenRecorder is very basic, but it works well, except for some random dropped frames here and there. No big deal, but sometimes it's noticeable enough for me to feel uneasy. 1920x1080, 60 fps, PulseAudio, H.264 video codec, ultrafast preset (skipping frames) and vorbis audio codec at 128 kbps. Just that.

Depending exclusively on the codecs I use, htop shows a CPU usage of 90-100% or 10-20%. So, I use those that don't require a huge CPU usage. Memory and Swap are not affected, as far as I know. But despite those circumstances, the outcome is the same. Recording with no sound = smoothness, 60 fps, recording with sound = choppiness, 10 fp5s.

Something I also noticed is that it also happens before I open Doom 2, so it doesn't matter whether I'm playing or not. Even with just the terminal and the file manager open.

Then how is it possible that, recording with no sound, my videos run smoothly, with no choppiness or other caveats?

On Kbin, browsing through the all tab, great majority of posts are related to US or some topic in the US.

More global presence. Too US centric to my likings.

Here are some small pieces of advice for you, and anyone else who is interested:

  • Block Lemmygrad.ml, because fascists.

  • Block Lemmy.ml, because admins are fascists.

  • Block Hexbear.net, because fascists and trolls.

  • Block any user from Lemmygrad.ml, Hexbear.net, and the usual suspects from Lemmy.ml.

That's it. 90% of toxicity is no more.

That is something that can happen here too, eventually. Not by scalpers, but still.
