After reading this, it’s pretty obvious that Stripe killed it by drastically changing its policy around in-site currency, which could’ve helped them a lot. What a shame. In the brief time I was on Cohost, I have seen a lot of interesting content over there. People were coding entire games inside of posts, something you can’t do on Tumblr nowadays. And the atmosphere was much more free, untethered and welcoming.

As an Israeli who is losing his mind over what is happening and is learning about the less positive side of Zionism, I feel the same. In essence, we have a battle between two extreme groups, one more civil and normal-looking in terms of outer appearance than the other.

Most who use Arch prefer to use a customized tiling window manager instead of a desktop environment. I tried using i3, and I do understand tiling WMs, but they’re not really for me and I won’t be able to do a crazy design out of them.

I created a lemm.ee account, and I might just mainly go on there instead of this one (or .world).

I get an error “ERROR: Cannot write file - profile_v2.json: Access is denied. (os error 5)” anytime I try to use it.

.world is so unstable that at this point its future is uncertain and I am ready to completely migrate either to beehaw or to some other instance.

It’s buggy on occasion, but it works!

Private trackers exist and some have frequent signup windows.

There is literally no public torrent tracker out there that has no issues…

The colors are not that great. It’s like a beautiful city being covered in grey smoke.

One…Plus.

Going full circle.

Russian-language independent media says otherwise. Websites like VK and RuTube will now require Russian Email addresses like yandex and mail-dot-ru.

Who tf uses DA for furry porn? There are way better websites nowadays

There is a variety of instances for Firefish, such as kitty.social. One weird thing I notices is that the Firefish logo is not consistent across all instances. ThatOneCalculator, creator of Firefish, was recently involved in some drama, so some instance owners put an alternative logo instead.

I like Firefish, I am on a Firefish instance myself, and I feel really good about it. It’s fun to use and it federates with Mastodon most of the time, and with Misskey some of the time. Unfortunately, microblogging on the fediverse is not as straightforward as forums on the fediverse, as they’re a lot more fragmented and there are 5 or 6 different platforms instead of 2 like we have here.
