I Want the Old Internet Back

[🖼 a screenshot of the 2011 version of the House of Hitstun from the Wayback Machine; its tagline describes it as "One page, no content, tables only, Final Destination"; there are a couple broken plugins but most parts work]

Hi, all. It’s been two years since my last post here, and the mainstream corporate–owned Internet sucks now. It’s ruining everything. I can’t even read the news anymore without disabling JavaScript. Even the current hitstun.net is now throwing nagging visitors to log in to Tumblr. I’d like to make a new web site at hitstun.net in PHP, free of intrusive scripts, cookies, and tracking. Msx2plus’s site is a great example. Wiby is a search engine that only indexes sites like that.

These days, I’m mostly active on PieFed, but my family and friends didn’t follow me there. I’ve switched from Android to /e/OS, from Firefox to LibreWolf, from Chrome to Cromite, from Reddit to Mbin to PieFed, from Twitter to Mastodon to Sharkey, from Authy to Ente Auth, and from Facebook to nothing. I wish Twitch and YouTube had some decent competition. I’m sure I’m forgetting some changes. Please come find me.

Another attempt at posting a short clip from
my Mbin community and Lemmy to Sharkey and Bluesky. Bluesky can't handle actual GIFs, so I had to re-cut this as an MP4. It feels like cheating.

Harmless Fairy Meyu Tzermellend by kso

I'm Hitstun and I usually post from my Fedia account. Since this is a fairy, I thought I'd be appropriate to try an experimental post from my Mastodon account instead. Meyu here is sort of what I think a computer fairy would look like.

In case things don't work, here's a Lemmy-style embedded image at its original 550x773 size:
