Mastodon isn't perfect.

But the fact a social network exists that is completely free to use,

has no venture capital investors,

has no shareholders to answer to,

has no growth targets,

with a web interface with zero cookies,

and mobile apps with zero trackers at all

with ten thousand server administrators who donate their time for user safety

is - in my opinion - mindbogglingly cool, given the state of the world we live in.

Not everything has to be shit. People make things better.

I've just released !EliteNet, my first #RISCOS application in 30 years.

It allows #Archimedes #Elite to transmit to an #Econet multiplayer scoreboard (see Yoda’s score in the second screenshot, for example).

I’ve loved every minute of this little side project!

Here's the repo: https://github.com/markmoxon/elite-over-econet-acorn-archimedes

If you want to see this in action, we’ll be playing multiplayer Elite at the National Museum of Computing’s LAN Party on 7-8 June.

You can find more information about the party here, including ticket details: https://www.tnmoc.org/events/econet-lan-party-2025-1b

See you there!
