I spent way too long thinking about this.

Well I appreciate it.

Would cooling the barrel buy you anything, I wonder?

Perfect. The faster it goes, the harder it gets. That’s just science.

Don’t get me started on EA 😩 probably the hardest part of not buying EA stuff is missing out on my beloved BF.

Ah well try to enjoy it for the both of us

Hmm we have to try with something else, like a pudding bullet

The analogy I keep going back to is that of the shopping centre / mall. While it makes sense to go there for commerce and some light socializing, isn’t it sad if malls were the only places you socialized?

Luckily, other places exist! Both irl, to real malls, and online, to commercial platforms.

Just getting people to wake up to the fact that they’re choosing to stay on a corporate run platform is huge imho

Yeah like I want to tell people how easy it is, and how much better things are here, but I sure as shit am not going to make an X or Bluebird account to do it. So at most I just yack about it to other nerds on my lunch break

Is it just because we stop using the commercial platforms when we switch to fedi? I assumed most people were dual users though

I don’t think they realize how easy it is to just walk away.

I was stuck on that treadmill for years before I realized

Yeah of the people in techI’ve spoken to about the fediverse, even the ones that did know only had a surface level understanding, and didn’t seem to consider it something that was for them for whatever reason.

That’s beautiful ly broken and so in keeping with the systemic affordances of block games 🥹

And that’s the story of why you and I get a weekend.

Many of them are petite bourgeoisie sure, but I don’t think you realize how hungry so many people in tech are to work on something real and good.

Was good while it lasted. Thanks for getting me off LastPass. See ya

Having specific friends maybe, but get out there and you’re guaranteed to find someone who’s on your sine.

Same. I don’t really play MC to “win” it, just fuck around and make things

This asshole

Me too!

I look at it more as like you’ve got that time to reckon with what your ancestors did to get you your cozy empire and try to make right, or else be crushed by the weight of their unrepentant sins

You know to my surprise, I actually don’t… I’ll watch a YouTube video or read a reddit post, but I don’t go there on my own or ever sign in anymore.

Discord has for sure been hard to avoid, but I just don’t chat with those people I guess. Some have come over to Delta chat, but if I really need to reach someone I’ll just text them.

I’ve worked on a cloded codebase. It’s not… uh, good.
