If you wanna know why chasing vitality is basically pointless my Terraria bad apple has nearly 40K views and has translated to maybe five views on my other videos and no measurable engagement on my site, there's basically no reason to try to go viral in hopes it'll boost your actual stuff

Ey thanks for the follow, I really like your catalogue of your reviews of animals and appreciate that you've got a bunch of them besides just mammals (no hate on them, just feel that others are pretty underappreciated too), and sharks are also pretty awesome too

I guess I'll make updates about my website and side stuff, for the website I plan on adding a few pages such as character entries and change up some stuff, and I'll also try surfing the web again once I get back to my mood for updating my website, in addition if we follow each other but haven't added your button make sure to tell me

I'd also like to get in touch with my net neighbors some more too, so if you want to feel free to let me now, places like Matrix work well. As for some art stuff, I'd like to get back to it as a side project and whlle I enjoy my creature art a lot, the same hasn't really been for interactions and personally I felt it lacked interactions between other users, but I'd like to try again soon, though for now I have my gal

Neocities is great and I have interacted with more webmasters here than artists on every social media I've used, but I'd still like to make my gallery more accessible and interact with some artists, but so far I'm not sure what to do about it, but here I'll get back to it again

Well it looks like my joke video I made last year about bad apple but it's a Terraria world is very weirdly seeing a massive uptick in views since a few weeks ago and keeps increasing. But just in case you didn't know: I didn't actually use any mods or even open Terraria to make the video, it's just faked in the Godot game engine

Unfortunately AbioticAbyss deleted his website again (Ruztbug, before Error-666). He said he might come back again soon but wants to find a new style and move on from AI completely (the new website had no vibe coding, although the tools he had before were made with it when he made them a while ago), I said before he might come back soon so hopefully he does make a new website soon

i'm surprised he used *some* AI in his coding

Yeah, he said he never disclosed it until the very last version of Error-666 and used it for every site, he made some interesting tools he uses to make the sprites for his website but he said he used AI back then to make the tool and isn't comfortable with it even though it let him make those sprites more quickly compared to Blender, since he wants to change the style maybe he won't be using that tool

I'm late to this but his website was the first time I was completely fooled by something being built with AI. Like I had absolutely no idea since it's usually pretty easy to spot AI sites on Neocities

My point being that I think the guy is talented and I hope he finds his way back here soon, glad he recognized the value of no AI whatsoever in a site

Not keeping of likes and other stuff on my art gallery has been great in my opinion for interaction, I feel like many places I've seen people share their art (eg. Discord, Bluesky) lack interaction on art because likes and reactions encourage laziness and lack of interaction by clicking a button instead of writing an opinion and interacting with others in my opinion

For now I've made a server on Discord for the game, I'll get more on my website soon about it but I would like to start building a community for the game early, and of course I'll be posting about progress and small stuff about it and it is also a bit of a spot to hang out as well, and don't give Discord any money, but here it is: https://discord.gg/Hg6ssHWnWN

I made it so if it detects AI sources (like the infamous utm_source=chatgpt.com) in the URL you get redirected to something

I'd like to give the fediverse [or mastodon] a try soon, and while you have given a bit of your experience to me before and I've seen that post about it from last year, I wonder how your experience has in terms of interactions and stuff since that post in more detail and some more things i should know about before i start

1 like

dabric 2 months ago

hm interactions... the fedi is a bit lacking with art, but people still very much engage with it (like, my most popular posts are my art). i'd say it's more personal posts about happenings and hobbies, though. people tend to reply more, i think. maybe not a lot more than bluesky, but still more

dabric 2 months ago

also: i've heard people say otherwise when mastodon was initially popular, but the server/instance you choose matters greatly. it determines the people you first see, the people that first see you, what the algorithm can recommend, and the moderators. i started off on wetdry.world, which i think was a pretty good starting point, and much of the people there also dabble with the indieweb

it's alright, I still wouldn't have my account as a place for my content primarily since I've got my homepage and I know i've made that massive rant about microblogging as art galleries but I do want to have more places for reach, I know about the merping.synth.download instance and maybe it might be a good starting point, but you can expand some more if you want and hopefully your headache is better

I have also been sitting down about bluesky and while I have moved off it given how i have seen it change, one of the main reasons why i kinda moved off it was that interaction part, although i dont know if ill return given my previous stuff but i might think about it some more anyways

Unfortunately, I realized I made a huge mistake with the lizard webring widget and used the wrong method to detect the parent iframe url which ended up throwing errors on websites other than my own, although the good news is that I fixed it a couple of hours ago today and now the widget should work 100% as intended after I checked the members
