Silly question, but any of you who are in servers running on Sharkey: Do you LARP as Misskey users, just like us Firefish users? It feels like you all are proud of being your own thing, where you craft your own identity besides just being a Misskey fork (for example, you all Shonk).
@7666@comp.lain.la True. I should get myself a VPS or convert my spare desktop into a server ASAP. Here's hoping that I succeed this time. - I realized that Domain.com (those motherfuckers) don't actually let you use your domain with anything else besides their own hosting - I decided to use a domain provider that's actually decent instead - I got an ethernet cable, so now my spare PC is now connected to my router - I got SSH working before
Uhhhhh ... 2023 has been the year of me leaving communities I join. :neofox_flush: - Left a bad Pleroma instance (Got into Misskey-based software) - Left Odysee (Radicalized into the left) - Left FurAffinity (Design was outdated) - Left Newgrounds (Couldn't find much good artists amongst the dudeart circlejerk) - Left Tumblr (Never got into its shitty algorithm-based UI) - Left Minidisc.tokyo (Foundkey died) - Left Berserker.town (I realized the admin was a centrist incel) I hope I don't have to move two more times. Kitty.social only has to move from Firefish to another Misskey fork, and Wetdry.world just needs to apologize to one of their users. Here's hoping that happens, and I'm optimistic that it will. :neofox_woozy:
@mja@comp.lain.la@coolboymew@shitposter.club Reading Bin Laden's "Letter to America" became trending on Tiktok because it related to the wider issues with the Israeli state (which the current war on Gaza is part of). In response, the news website The Guardian, which hosted the letter, removed it because according to them, people were taking it out of context.
In my opinion (though it is irrelevant), I think what The Guardian did was foolish, as people were not reading it to support that man.
For me: - Masto users are normal, though a bit basic :blobshrug: - Masto rightoids are dying lolbert boomers 👴 - Masto shitlibs will suck up and bow down to blue dog, neolib Biden, then ban minorities and leftists for making mistakes they'll apologize for - Pawoo users need to fucking die 🔥🔥🔥 - Pleroma users are a mixed bag, but overall chill like 2000s internet users :aryahey: - Pleroma+Soapbox users are scary motherfuckers :nkoScared: - Minds users use rightoid Tumblr :neofox_thumbsdown: - Akkoma users are either lovely, cuteposting fellas :blobcatheart: or like the neighbor's kid but trans :neofox_kisser: - Misskey users are (unironically) creative :neocat_thumbsup: - Firefish users are like Akkoma users, but with MFM and numerous other features to fuck around with :aryaglasses: - Masto fork users (Chuckya, Glitch-Soc) are jealous of Firefish users :neofox_glare_sob:
P.S.: How the fuck did you manage to find a GoToSocial, Pixelfed, or GNU Social user?
@thor@berserker.town Would prefer the sausages be diced up instead and also have some veggies, like onions, bell peppers, and potatoes. Otherwise, it seems pretty tasty...
@adiz@soc0.outrnat.nl There's also other communities within Fedi that I highly enjoy. 1. The Japanese art community is the largest group of talented creatives ever. I'm impressed with the sheer amount of neat art that they make, where it's almost unreal. Their extensive use of reposts, which promote even more cool artists to follow, is also wonderful to see. You'd never see that level of creative community on other social platforms (and maybe some art platforms as well). 2. The furry community is also awesome. They're just as talented and creative as the Japanese art community (and sometimes, I'd see really cool people who are part of both communities. Everything I said about the Japanese art community, thus, can be applied to this community. It's just sad that it's still quite small, being easily overshadowed by furry communities on other platforms (For instance, FA (iffy), Twitter (I obviously want it to burn), and Inkbunny (More outdated than actual 2000s websites)). I hope it'll overcome its challenges, such as the lack of a flagship art/furry instance (MastoArt went to shit), and that more furries and furry artists will join the platform. 3. The MAP/MAP art community Fuck all of you, die from a massive shredder 3. (For real this time) I never thought I would be vibing with the economic leftist community, made up of people like you, Moff, and Macja. Yet, you guys are honestly pretty cool people to hang out with and talk to. Moff, for example, has recommended some really cool videos that helped me break out of the one-dimensional notion that the Soviets and Chinese are evil nations that we shouldn't learn from. You guys also aren't so politically charged (how ironic that it's the fake leftist Twitter refugees that are such). I don't have to worry that my opinion is somehow offensive when I talk to this community. So, yeah, as a result, I might even consider myself part of this cool community.
Hey! I'm Poppy Farbird, an enby (they/them) furry artist who wants to work with technology. Specifically, I both create artworks of anthros (though they are on my other account) and boost other artists' fascinating works. For technology, I try to integrate open-source projects the best I can. I have Linux on my gaming PC, use software like Codium, Onlyoffice, Krita, and such, and sometimes promote these projects to others. In the future, I also want to support them financially and through commits in their codebase. I'm also trying to get into things like web design and animation. Although I'm both busy with college and poor with time management, I'm already proud to see the progress that I've made (basic 3D modeling, website on Neocities), and hope to go even further in the future. Anyways, it's just nice to be in the Fedi, which has one of the best communities on the internet.Some things to know: 1. Assume all other accounts that seem like me are fake unless I link them here. 2.
