You're right, while there are advantages to hosting a pds, it doesn't seem you can run a fully fledged instance at this time

Is there a good alternative to this? Using one app for Blue sky, mastodon, and even Lemmy sounds cool

Yeah if you just finished your first playthrough it might be a little soon for the Final Draft. I beat it a few months ago and just finished the DLC a week or so ago, so I think it's a good time for me. I bet you could just watch the cutscenes or differences on YouTube though.

I actually haven't played the Max Payne games, but I've heard good things. I think there's a remake of those rumored, so I'm probably going to wait and go check out Quantum Break next!

If it helps you decide, the Night Springs DLC is technically a prequel to AW2 but more or less standalone. The DLC is also pretty short with 3 separate chapters that are just a couple hours long total, and locations are reused from the base game. I believe there were supposed to be a couple extra chapters that got scrapped (partially due to James McCaffrey's passing). That being said, I did enjoy it and think the third episode in particular was pretty interesting.

I'm currently playing The Final Draft. Totally agree, I think AW2 is a masterpiece and has sold me as a big fan of Sam Lake and his work. I liked the first game (and loved Control), but the sequel is a lot more fun than the first gameplay-wise.

Night Springs DLC spoilerI was a little confused by the three episodes, obviously they're intended to be other characters (Rose, Jesse, Sheriff Breaker), but apparently they are all just stories written by Wake as attempts to escape the Dark Place prior to AW2. The third episode talks about how all characters have "echoes" and with the multiverse are basically real and canon (even relating to their real-life counterparts). Sam Lake = the Director = Alex Casey = Max Payne, etc - each is as real as the others and they're tied together by a string. Pretty interesting take, and I like that this episode basically canonizes Max Payne and Quantum Break in the Remedyverse.

After I finish the Final Draft, I will have to play Quantum Break. I think a Max Payne remake is rumored, so hopefully that will see light not long after. I have already played Control and it's DLCs multiple times and can't wait for that sequel.

Didn't realize how big it was in India, 16.21%!

I'm using Manjaro as well with an Nvidia card and also had the black screen issue when switching to Wayland. I believe this is what fixed it for me: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=2156732#p2156732

Personally, I just use it in a web browser for ad-hoc file uploads. If you're looking for regular syncing though, supposedly rclone works. https://docs.s3drive.app/setup/providers/#usernamepassword-setup

I actually hadn't noticed it's not there for mobile, but there's search in the desktop view of the website

As someone who also loved those games, I'm confident you'll enjoy AW2 as well
