Is there any issue with buying a card that was previously used for mining?

If used by a home user who didn’t know what they were doing they might have run it hotter for much longer than a typical gamer so the thermal paste might need a redo.

If used by some miner doing it even quasi-professionally or as a side-gig I’d much prefer it over a 2nd hand card from any typical gamer (most miners) they’ve kept the voltage/temps low and taken care of it far better than a gamer who might be power cycling regularly and definitely thermal cycling even more regularly.

Invaluable

adjective

beyond calculable or appraisable value; of inestimable worth; priceless:

I’d believe it’s organic tbh, I was waiting for Sync or Boost to drop before I fully took the plunge. There are probably many others like me for whom those apps and others defined the Reddit mobile experience and the other apps for Lemmy (or the ones I used at least) weren’t as feature rich so it’s an easy choice to make.

Making a new account and linking to your old one in the bio isn’t as convoluted as it may sound.

Almost 11 years with this username, a few years before that with another account that was linked to IRL stuff so decided to dedoxify myself.

I’m glad tbh - Reddit’s been tailspinning as an experience since 2016 at least, it’s just become much more aggressive about hating it’s userbase and free labour recently.

Nah, they’re replacing it with shitcoins - they’ve been beta-testing for years on /r/ethtrader, /r/cryptocurrency and /r/Fortnite
