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

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

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

my tooling broke because the neocities API is saying there's a file with the path of "\.well\-known/kicya.html". what ... ?

my neocities uploader tool attempts to delete the file, which of course doesn't work, because it's an invalid file name. weird!

seeing you deactivate your bluesky, I'm kinda curious what your thoughts on the fediverse would be

amaxivermis 2 months ago

To be fair I like the idea of decentralization which you might know why, which is why I started trying out Matrix, though I have heard the situation on the fediverse culturally is a bit different from what I have seen

amaxivermis 2 months ago

I know Bluesky is decentralized though, but if atproto is under this leadership it leaves me worried, but maybe i should try fediverse soon, but you could give your experience so far

the fedi is culturally different, but so far i'd say i've had a good time. i'd say it's very much more small. like on atproto, the closest thing to an instance usually tries to index the entire damn network, so you can see everyone. it seems that's not much of a thing on the fediverse.

dabric 2 months ago

like i'm on merping.synth.download. it's a small instance, and while i *can* follow anyone on the fediverse, the instance isn't aware of everyone, and other instances by default don't know i exist. so people can only really find me via reposts, and the trending page is sometimes just a single post of a guy's dog. i thought it would be limiting, but it's kinda more cozy to me i feel ...

I see, i personally prefer smaller communities anyways since i tend to find the content i'd find interesting and big ones are just overstimulating and shallow imo, though none of my friends I have on discord and stuff use it unfortunately, but i could give it a shot one day

progress on that website redesign ... I've largely planned out how the homepage will look (https://cdn.merping.synth.download/media_attachments/files/116/264/738/603/580/923/original/bbe13f4846091be0.webp). and kinda like the cursors right now, you can also click and play with the stars!

The video doesnt play but this redesign looks cozy so far. Definitely more portfolio-feeling than a personal site for sure, though some non-standard UI can make it personal again. I like personal sites more personally since we're on Neocities and not LinkedIn trying to get hired, but that's just one opinion

PSA: marquee not functioning in chromium browsers is a bug. it was fixed today-ish, and is working again in chrome canary. https://issues.chromium.org/issues/493612790

marquee not working in a major browser is almost always a bug. like, despite being deprecated, it still remains in the HTML5 standard. i don't foresee it being out-right removed anytime soon. it's against the spirit of the web to break websites.

It continues to surprise me whenever I see people even put their tabling right on their HOMEPAGE, like I never thought a little custom gift for following me would stick around and reverberate around Neocities for so long. It's really really cool, and I hope someone else on Neocities does something similar too! Though @astersarchive did do a pretty neat pixel art pizza party sort-of event page

i think neocities pings every page that gets updated (and in seemingly random, incomplete order), even if it's just something minor like updating the metadata
