I'm thinking about this banger of a post by @mavica_again. I strongly encourage you to read it. We're all trying to make connections in this world. It's amazing what kind of impact a three-word comment ("I like this") or an enthusiastic email can have on someone who's making things for the world to see and use maple.pet/blog/on-social-media

if your fediverse software converts png to webp you're part of the problem

webp federation is 100% broken on computer fairies (i do not remember if intentionally or not) and honestly i think that's a good thing

The head of Anbernic R&D has a long standing beef with the guy behind ZPG/GKD & it is admittedly kind of funny sometimes. He said Anbernic would never do a 1:1 aspect ratio handheld because it was stupid but then the Unicorn was announced and suddenly they can't make one fast enough

Fosstodon meta 

in case folks haven't been following along, new Fosstodon instance owner Gina has, at this point, repeatedly doubled down on the idea that instance founders Kev and Mike were victims of "harassment" for the innocent little oopsie of openly sheltering a fascist on their moderation team.

yesterday, she escalated that rhetoric, calling it "outright abuse at worst."

those of you who defederated from Fosstodon can rest assured that the new boss is the same as the old boss.
