Clarification: I'm not just generically looking for more people to follow or more interesting content. I want to follow people I already interact with here on bsky. If we like each others posts and occasionally comment or DM, it would be super poggers to do that with you on mastodon instead.

If any of you guys have mastodon, please lmk your handle! 🙏 I've been spending a lot more time over there. My bsky feeds are like 85% angry people and promo (self or otherwise) these days, I'm kind of over it. It's bad mental hanging out here.

Since I didn't know it was a thing until this morning by total accident, YouTube has added not one but *two* voice "enhancements," Stable Volume and Voice Boost, that can really muck up the audio on videos. Here's the info and how to turn them off: support.google.com/youtube/answ...

I walked into the kitchen intending to have a healthy, well-balanced breakfast, and walked out with a bowl of instant ramen. Gonna be one of those days

Update to my pomodoro timer project! It's much easier and more intuitive to use now! 🎉 Plus custom sound alerts! I still don't consider this to be ready for general release so I'm not publicly uploading it anywhere just yet, but if you'd like to give it a try just let me know!

Screenshot of various options and views of the pomodoro timer. It can range from quite large and obvious with a bunch of buttons to a very small window that shows only the minutes left and which pomo you're on.

Note: This is still an early version and accessibility sucks.

Screenshot of a MSN client. It looks very similar to the one from 2009!

(Gentle) reminder that mastodon exists 📢 It has a lot of features that bsky/twt users say they want, I'm honestly confused that so few bother to try it tbh. Then again there are still people using twitter and reddit despite them being bot cesspits now so the inertia is very real ig.

You have the right as a human being to make art. That includes art that is not perfect. That includes art that is not good.

Very early alpha version, but it's functional!!

Screenshots of a purple pomodoro timer. It features a minimal, distraction-free view with a very small footprint. Also has options for repeating alerts and snooze length.

Fully recommend getting a pet neurotypical for your group chats, they are so cute when they get confused. (make sure it's domesticated though)

#StardewValley players - Does anyone have a mod recommendation for removing crows? They ruin my day and I hate using scarecrows. There used to be a "no crows" mod but it hasn't been maintained and doesn't work for the current version 😔

Looks like I miiiight be able to convince my in-laws to use jellyfin if I set one up? 👀 I've been idly thinking about it for a while but it didn't seem worth the effort if 90% of the time was only going to be used by the machine in our lounge.

Desperately begging VTubers, especially bigger ones, to use alt-text. If yer making schedules, you already have the words, use them. Describe the subject, scene, and what's happening within concisely, and especially any text you use, too. Ask for help if you need it. Please.

White people are always all "So where are you from" or "which country were you born in?" which is kind of a stressful thing for me because I have to try to work out what they're actually asking for. Asians will just straight up ask me "what kind of Asian are you" and it's so much nicer LMAO

My mom wouldn't buy any books if it came with a fun accessory like a keychain or bracelet. She was CONVINCED that it was the only reason I was asking for it. I've been addicted to books ever since I could read and practically lived in the library, but clearly I must value knick knacks more 🙄
