Made a quick blog post on my Mitra experience. I like it, it's amazing to self host, but it's missing a few critical features IMO.

@p @dj @ryan @ins0mniak @lanodan it's like in the hacker movies where they can make computers blow up and fry someone's mind or something I'm gonna guess

@dcc @nihilvt Facebook will ban you for the real name policy so yeah
Fun fact if your legal name is a certain demographics favorite name you're more likely to get made to send in your id too

@nihilvt I posted the same shit I did here on bsky and got no interactions and like 9+ reposts here

I wonder if bsky is more like botsky

@mint yes in fact I took the screenshot in 86box.
It's 100% windows but it needs 9x and a jp locale setting/fonts and something in wine doesn't make it work even with the jp locale, while a 32 bit wineprefix makes the installer blow up.

@ins0mniak @dj @ryan @p @lanodan "digital violence" sounds like a lost front line assembly b side

I just dumped for Windows 95 (and only 95/98): Super KiD95.

This is the successor to KiD98 and it's relatives for other computers, which was a common tool used to create PC-98 graphics back in the day. Unlike KiD98; it runs on Windows, uses TWAIN, you don't need a rare scanner to use it, and it can even do the PC-98's 16/4096 colors!

@p I have too many cheap keyboards lmao

@waff @nyanide well we all know what else happened in 2022 to lure them back to the shitfest and that was some rich boomer with more baby mamas than an Altima driver buying Twitter

>buy new bling bling GPU with daddy's money
>Your games that aren't new have deprecated PhysX

PC gaming moment

@nyanide @waff man I'm remembering how 2022-3 fedi had cool schizos who fell off the internet who'd brag about being proud autist neets and all

starting a new instance is funny because you will meet wild mastodongers

@ArdainianRight @theorytoe @DrRyanSkelton @nozaki @animepfp also other shit like reality tv, eurovision, etc.

@theorytoe @nozaki @animepfp idk man SXM DJs I listen to are shouting out they have one along with Threads and X and the like.

If there's anything I've learned as a veteran of the bullshit it's that just because you don't see it happening doesn't mean it's not happening. Of course, bsky will never shed the image of "Twitter for Tankies" especially not with the trending shit you see daily. Yet every single furry has a bsky account for some reason.

@theorytoe @nozaki @animepfp also the hard reality is every single new social media site is going to be a containment site. Nobody on Twitter was there because they wanted to see opposing viewpoints at the end.

The future is going to be fragmented, especially as Twitter became for left wingers how it was for right wingers in the Trump/early Biden years.

I don't care because here someone is less likely to blow up because I made someone feel some type of way 10 years ago in a skype call I forgot or some shit like that.

@theorytoe @nozaki @animepfp
>also alot of the new momentum in the development side of things is putting a mastodon-adjacent gay retarded governing body behind the ""standards"" (if you can even call them anything beyond a suggestion) so I dont expect it to improve with time

I made a post about it the other night, but Mastodon's competition going forward is going to be bsky and not Twitter/similar as much.

Not having quote tweets fucked them over hard because it was a battle of the 2017 post-CVille leftists who felt "if this feature can cause harassment, it shouldn't exist" vs the 2025 "Dude, where's my quotes" Twitter refugees.

@nyanide @kerosene I got jannied from vogons and I wasn't told why.

These same people wonder why reddit replaced them

@nyanide also there's someone keeping them in line

@nyanide idk I don't see windows devs making 2 hour long videos about drama.
