The Tomba games are great! I was thinking of replaying them this year, actually, probably for my Halloween gaming season (it’s not horror, I know, but there’s a lot in the games that was just creepy to me as a kid)

Spyro the Dragon - the first game specifically, I find it more of an immersive treasure-hunting experience than the next two games, which are more obviously… I dunno, video game-y. I like all three but I always 100% the first game at least once a year.
Worth keeping in mind that Facebook has manipulated data before:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pivot_to_video#Facebook_metrics_controversy
In September 2016, Facebook admitted that it had reported artificially inflated numbers to its advertisers about how long viewers watched ads leading to an overestimation of 60-80%[44] Facebook apologized in an official statement and in multiple staff appearances at New York Advertising Week.[45][46] Two months later, Facebook disclosed additional discrepancies in audience metrics.[47][48] In October 2018, a California federal court unsealed the text of a class action lawsuit filed by advertisers against Facebook, alleging that Facebook had known since 2015 that its viewership numbers were inflated “by some 150 to 900 percent” and waited over a year before taking action to disclose or fix the problem, citing internal Facebook communications that “somehow there was no progress on the task for the year” and decisions to “obfuscate the fact that we screwed up the math.”[49][50]
That’s @RSS, for those who might want to look it up (I really wish kbin would show posters’ instances more clearly). Subscribed!
I think by “here” OP meant the fediverse in general, hence “an interesting topic and the right community”. I would guess this is just encouraging people to post more in general (which I appreciate as I was mostly a lurker for my 13 years on Reddit)
I just got into selfhosting with a used thin client (Dell Wyse 3040), only $30 on eBay. I don’t know what I’m doing at all and it’s still working out great for me so far, so I think that’s a good enough endorsement.
