Actual zombie

This was a fantastic read, thank you for sharing it!

I was never on LiveJournal, but I remember spending a lot of time on all sorts of random websites in the 90s and early 00s. Many hosted on Geocities, or Tripod, often with free forum software of some sort, making hundreds of tiny little communities. And over time, each one disappeared.

The fediverse gives me hope; it definitely has its problems, but fundamentally no single person owns the whole thing. Individual corners may come and go, but the network will remain, and that's awesome.

I'm trans and a programmer and I don't have socks like these. Where do I get some?? (Can someone mail me a pair???)

I hear you, but politics are literally unavoidable. Also, for some of us, especially members of minority groups conservatives have it out for right now, literally just existing openly in a space will sometimes have folks crying politics.

I'm happy for you, or sorry that happened. When stuck on hold I just like to close my eyes and dream about horsies

Yeah! Kbin PWA is great. (Though there's a very small amount of sidescroll that makes my frontend web dev heart cry a bit... maybe I should open a pull request for it :))

Though it seems to override my screen orientation settings, making it hard to read while lying in bed XD

Tries to siberian sweep but fucks it up a bit

It just keeps happening 🍽🍴🔥 :(

The first computer my family had was a really old one with MS DOS. First game was either Nibbles, or a weird platformer called Dark Ages (can't remember which I tried first).

That did it! Thank you :D

I was looking under https://kbin.social/magazines, good to know I should use the search instead :)

Also seems better for seeing posts from smaller communities I'm subscribed to. Other settings, the big communities always end up at the top and I miss threads I'm otherwise interested in.

Haven't played lately, but used to enjoy bzflag a fair bit

I think replying to every single point you made would be way off topic, so I'm not going to.

What I will respond to is your very first comment. The far right, worldwide (not just republicans) is practically frothing at the mouth about trans people lately. Their rhetoric is borderline genocidal, with open calls to "exterminate transgenderism". No civil discussion can be had when one of the sides is literally out for blood.

There are many issues that you can take many perfectly reasonable differing opinions on, and have a civil discussion over, but this isn't one of them.

I'm interested in this too. I've blocked a couple of domains, and that helps, but now and then they still pop up.

HROT! Quake styled retro fps. I am enjoying it :)

We cycle between Plate Up!, Unrailed, and Helldivers in my household :) Other people have already mentioned them, but big +1 on all 3.

I support it. Literally the entire purpose of living in a society vs. as hermits, is so that we can help one another out. Lets do more of that.

Seems to be some server weirdness so replying with my alt.

I am rather confused about this reply! To clarify, I unironically find it cute, and was making a light hearted post to comment on it. Did you intend to reply to someone else?

Cool idea! Do me :D

Last few years have been rough. Things seem to be turning around lately though (new job, etc). Do the cards have any advice to keep the improvements coming?

I had this same problem. Try looking it up over here: https://kbin.social/search possibly without the ! mark, not sure.

I think the magazines list only shows magazines/communities that have already federated. But, search kicks that into motion if it hasn't started already.
