in the future, basically all websites will be full of unblockable ads and/or implemented entirely in ultra-fucked webassembly/opengl, and the tech-savvy will browse the web entirely through cat & mouse proxy servers running headless browsers to OCR the inaccessible content back into old-fashioned normal HTML and illegally redistribute it through peer-to-peer networks
#COVID19 Twitch keeps shutting this stream down every few days or so. They come back with a new account a day or so later and I for one am glad for that.

Funny thing about the fediverse... I really only found it because of twitter. Shelter in place, so much shut down, I started digging around in old info files on old tech and found my info for my old twitter that I hadn't used in 8 freaking years LOL.
I logged in, tooled around because I found a decent opera sidebar extension for it, then I thought... there's gotta be something better than this... right?
Thank you fediverse for existing.
So, I just discovered the fediverse in general in the last couple days. Like any time I find something new to me and interesting, I dove in head first with an obsessive need to learn more. I was like Hermione in a new library.
Here are 2 things I wish were different tho. First I wish all the instances used the same software, namely whatever qoto is using. In my exploring I have tried out a few instances and this one by far seems the best to me for its customizeability with things like blocking entire domains (I personally think this is better than an instance blocking another instance) and the lovely huge character limits.
Second thing I wish was different is the toot button. Would it be so bad for it to just say "Send" instead of Toot? I get where it comes from, but I've seen some people take mastodon less seriously because of it being called tooting, it kinda gives off a hipster vibe of trying too hard to not be "tweet," and it sometimes just makes me think of stupid fart jokes lol.
Other than those two points, I am loving the fediverse and my mind is blown with how explosively active the Federated timeline is.
