I'm a worldbuilding consultant and fanfiction writer for the Pokémon fandom, also work with computers 'n' stuff. Linux user (but not Arch, btw).

I have a Mastodon btw as @VeniaSilente .

I use SQLite to power up lots of stuff I'm working on. It's lightweight, fast, simple and well-documented for small projects — like a Postgres but very local. Saves me from having to deal with containers "just to store data", let alone for moving stuff to other machine where I would also need the permissions to configure and run containers in the first place; whereas all you need to pass SQLite databases along is scp / rsync.

Sounds (heh) good in theory, but so far it hasn't been able to pick any radio in my country (Ar) or nearby. Inspector says any attempt to load a radio ends in a HTTP 403 error.

Was expecting a JoJo meme, am not disappointed.

Starting up wikis is so easy nowadays that there's no excuse. I maintain a few Dokuwiki-based ones, it's my preferred engine for simple wiki stuff, but Mediawiki (the same one that powers Wikipedia) is not bad either and not really too difficult, just a bit more demanding storage-wise. Heck, you can currently fire-and-forget DW-based wikis on SDF's "one payment" access tier, even! Probably on Neocities too, haven't checked.

This. Sometimes a software is just finished. IRC itself has not seen change in like... about all the time I remember.

. It's not like they can buy the Fediverse.

They don't need to. They only need to buy the admins. And we know that some admins have annouced they are for sale.

Reason enough to <del>use something else if possible</del> read the docs.

I agree that Kbin could use a mascot (not necessarily need a mascot), but IMO the current proposals are not furry enough in this year of the Fediverse of 2023.
