-> file: fediverse/1601 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-1037 Cool I'm into that stuff too : ) It had a very slick ui, very responsive if I remember correctly. Like, 60fps in the browser kind of thing. Or maybe that was just the pre-rendered teaser trailer shot idk. honestly might have just been a front-end project or an animation, idk if it actually worked as a programming language. But it seemed like a cool "UI" into programming. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1602 ╔═══════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────────────────────┐ ║ @user-1037 │ ║ │ ║ those all seem really cool though!

I swear I didn't hallucinate this thing but it might be less cool than I thought and I might have misremembered and made up parts of it, I can't tell because it was such a short memory : (
┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1604 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── is it against fedi law to post screenshots of your past liked posts? like, would that be doxxing people? I'm thinking like a "youtube rewind" but like, "here's what I'm into" and like "I could have boosted them but I put them in a 25mb zip file instead so you can share them more easily which tbh is a greater honor than being boosted because, like, as long as you're alive that hard drive's gonna follow you and someday in like 30 years I'll see it and think of you" but also "aren't you scared that this hard drive of yours will fall into the wrong hands" and like "yeah that's why I encrypt it because then a stray neutrino could wipe my drive" ... would that be unethical, or would it be kinda sweet and give us a perspective on what a single slice of the "fediverse" was like at a particular time? And better question, would that be something worth automating because I already did like 60% of that for my own posts, could probably just tweak it to do liked posts as well. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1605 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-1040 I think about all those screencaps of Tumblr posts or Twitter threads or 4chan memes or even making fun of boomers on facebook and, like, that seems like a privacy nightmare if you don't want your words to be associated with you. like, if someone saw my name next to something I posted in 2013 then they'd probably get a very different perspective of who I was. That's just part of growing up, and sometimes growing means changing how you represent your self. By screenshotting their posts as I did (but didn't post yet) I am denying the agency to change. Forever more they will be remembered as the name, face, and words on the screen that I saw fit to remember. That feels non-consentual to me. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1606 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-1037 That looks pretty neat, thanks : ) ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/1607 ════════════════════════════════════════════════─────────────────────────────────── @user-1037 Okay I'll add you to my friends list so everytime I'm thinking about memories of people by looking through the people I'm connected with on each platform I'll remember you and our short quest to uncover the secret of the thing-I-might-have-dreamed ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═════════════════════════════════════──────────────────────┴───────────┘ |
