  • Hey! I don’t know when the last time you used Vortex, but is is SO much better now. They’ve even added mod collections that allow you to one click install a few to all the way to over 1000 mods (Looking at you Skyrim mod collections, Constellations and Gate to Sovngarde!) and have it ready to play as soon as it is done.

    I have played Oblivion, Skyrim, and Stardew Valley with collections and not once had a collection not work! It’s crazy how good it is now!

    I know some people don’t like Nexus for whatever reasons, but I give them so much credit for making modding easy enough that my friends could finally mod their games without going, “You sit here and go through pages and pages of mods? And that’s fun?” Or “That seems like too much stuff. I’d rather not mess with that…”.

    I would love to hear your opinion if you do try it again! :)









  • Well, considering I’m on iOS and gave it no access to anything, and I would never use it to upload anything to begin with, these issues do not pertain to me. I don’t link accounts on it, and the email is a burner email that iOS made for me to specifically use for that app.

    I think a lot of these privacy concerns are more for people who actually want to use it for posting or making videos. Then I would be worried about all the data. I give them nothing, no real names or anything. So, I would say I’m okay. 👍

  • Let me just say that I learned more useful and interesting things than I ever did on any other social media platform to date. I also haven’t had a Facebook insta or any of that ilk since 2015. Reddit, then TikTok, then here at Lemmy is all I’ve had since then.

    I found lots of videos giving me awesome facts about animals I never learned in school or elsewhere! (A opossum is naturally immune to rabies and is actually good for your wildlife area!)

    I learned multiple ways to make things easier on myself, some being: car maintenance, cleaning, cooking, grocery shopping, acceptance of others and of myself, and laws and politics (that they then give you multiple sources for or show you the website or place they got their info) just to name a few!

    While I still get videos that I find funny, most of them have been actually beneficial to me which I couldn’t believe I had been hating on TikTok for so long because I thought it was just dumbass pranks or mindless drivel like “satisfying” videos or whatever.

    I’m not saying use it, because I haven’t in a few weeks, but it can actually give you really good and quality content.
