@codl (switched to Pidgin eventually, then with MSN's decline/death and AIM starting to shut down as well and me just dropping ICQ entirely years before when all the friends I had on it disappeared/moved to other platforms, dropped that too last year since all I had was gtalk and telegram and Skype was nigh impossible to use with Pidgin and only had like ...two friends on it that I talked to... so now it's discord and telegram =w=; )
@squirrel is that... is that morse code in the form of smileys and letters
@codl fuck I must have gone through most of them. I started with... ICQ I think? that got old REAL fast when I started getting spammers day in day out but there were a few contacts on it. Then my dad got AOL for our ISP (because it was free) so I had AIM through that, so then I got AIM and ICQ as separate things, then MSN came about and I had friends on that and it got REALLY annoying using all three but then Trillian was a thing. Welp.
@squirrel huge aesthetic
Hey, help me out, friends:
Most OSS slack alternatives (mattermost, zulip, matrix/riot) appear to use WebRTC for voice/video.
I've read a few things that has left me with the understanding that WebRTC's p2p approach means that it's innappropriate for group convos with >3 participants.
Has anyone used the above (or other OSS slack alternatives) for larger group voice & video calls successfully? Please lemme know your experiences!
@revenant 🤔

jokey response with some allcaps referencing scp
@codl Person: "Please codl you can't just call everything an scp!"
codl: *pointing at a stone* "SCP"
person: *sobbing now* "Please stop!"
codl: *points at person pleading for them to stop* "SCP"
person: *immediately not sobbing, morphs into their true form* DAMMIT HOW DID YOU KNOW FUCKING... GODDAMMIT. FUCK.
cats, me worrying about them, cats fighting D:
oh no two kitties are fighting outside and given the sounds I am pretty sure I know which two cats it is one is TJ the super affectionate big tom and the other is Archie who is more nervous but gently affectionate with folks he likes and they both look alike but Archie ALWAYS comes off worse because TJ is lovely to people but hates other cats and I just want them to get along and not fight because they're both kitties and thus good ;;
@jk *touuuuuches*
got some time to kill before having to go out so deciding to play some burnout paradise remastered and I get distracted looking at my pc for a second after a race and of course whenever it goes into "standby" if you sit still long enough it sorta just shows sweeps of camera angles across the city and plays classical music
and right now it's playing Moonlight Sonata and I'm expecting a wall to slide open in my house or something.
yeah i'm moving over to chitter.xyz now. Soooo go there! I'm there now.
