I know it's important that masto/the fediverse is a semi open communication standard and not just One Company With One Website, but I don't like having to keep another tab open to copy and paste a person's URL into (and in some cases still not be able to find them to follow).

Maybe it'll pass, like any other growing pains.

I think I would use some of these alternative social medias more often if they weren't pains in the ass. Mainly talking about Cohost here, they don't yet have a nice login management system so any time I log on from another device it logs the other one out.

Mastodon seems fine in that regard so far but following people off-instance sucks a lot.

when you see someone describe a creative endeavor they undertook as "quarantine" or "lockdown" it's a good reminder that doing something creative is not just unusual, but embarrassing for many people, and they feel obligated to explain it was the result of adverse conditions

Computers used to scream out in pain when we connected them to the Internet.

This was a clue and we just didn't listen.

Proposal: A Mastodon instance with a True Name Policy. Not legal names. Anyone using their legally assigned birth name will be assumed to be violating the True Name policy and banned. Everyone on this instance is required to set their display name to the Name that would allow the fae, if they exist, to steal your soul

past a certain point reading dwarf fortress bug reports, the line begins to blur as to what's a legit bug and what's just dwarf culture.

I know of exactly one person anywhere in the internet that has me blocked. Regardless of the true reason behind it, I hope they're doing well and that maybe life has quit dealing them such a shit hand.

If somebody's gonna block me, they absolutely should block me. I'm not gonna argue against it. I probably did something they didn't like, and it's better for things as a whole if they don't have to perceive me.

Would probably be much better if they did it of their own volition, though. Make your own choices. Have your own reasons. Don't feel like you gotta justify it to anybody. You're the one in control of your experience - weasel or no weasel.

making your own echo chambers is ok sometimes

of course, you should pop the filter bubble every now and then. poke your head out of the hole to see if you can see your own shadow. but you shouldn't subject yourself to a 24/7 firehose of everything.

New blog post! I wrote about the weird history of Photo CD games - a format for family photos and photographers' portfolios that was *not* intended for complex games, but people went for it anyway. I love how people will find a way to make games no matter what. cdrom.ca/games/2023/01/02/phot
