why are there so many protocols… why do Tent and Mastodon and Scuttlebutt have their own protocols… this is what a “protocol” is for, it’s for multiple things to use…. hnnnnggghhhh
I’ll check it out I guess, as long as they have a linux client
The main problem I had when first attempting to use Scuttlebutt was that–unless you have the knowledge and resources to run your own pub, which I do not–it forces you to integrate into the pre-existing web of social connections, unable to import the relationships you’ve already formed elsewhere. Which *is* a great way to make new friends, and that *is* very much a valuable role to play, but right now I’m focused on keeping the old ones.
A ratsphere pub sounds very promising. I think I’ll be giving this another try.
(They do have a Linux client. Source: am on Linux, have used their client.)
Running your own pub has been made pretty easy. There’s a tool for spinning up an instance on DigitalOcean which requires very little knowledge or skill.
I’m unclear on how much it will cost to maintain the pub; a new DigitalOcean account gets $100 of credit which must be used in the first 60 days, so I’ll be running this for 60 days and I’ll tell you what it cost at the end of that.
I may even run multiple if I see some reason to or demand for them.
Here’s the page for the overall “what is this anyway?”

That’d be a yes. Mind you, this is pretty minimal in comparison to the jump that happened for LiveJournal:
I do think it’s highly likely that there will still be a significant portion of fandoms and users still on Tumblr for several more months- the same thing happened to LiveJournal prior to the data above, where a large spike was seen in July 2012. But movement is happening and it’s good to be aware that it is.
#this doesn’t even count me #I’ve had a DW account for ages I just only used it for commenting #Dreamwidth #The Great Tumblr Apocalypse #The Last Tumblr Apocalypse #fun with statistics
heads up before you spend $$ on pillowfort, especially note the paypal thing. the io domain concern does not seem carefully enforced but is in the TOS so 🤷

…hey Harry Potter fans, we’re all in agreement that Dumbledore brought the Philosopher’s Stone to Hogwarts in Harry’s first year as a test to see whether Voldemort was paying attention and what sort of state he was in, now that Dumbledore’s chosen champion was old enough to hold a wand, right?
Like, Harry learns what magic is and it’s time to start moving towards the full and final destruction of Tom Riddle Junior, so Dumbledore has a chat with his long-time alchemy friend who’s been keeping this thing safe for literally six centuries straight, and ‘borrows’ the easiest source of immortality he can find as bait for a trap to lure Voldemort out into the open so Dumbledore can get the lay of the land to prep for the next seven years. This is canon, right?
Yes, this is canon. In none of the other books is the climactic array of trials set up as a video-game dungeon perfectly tailored to the skillsets of three specific children. Hermione and Ron are drafted into this war quickly.
Draco gets so much shit for trying to kill Dumbledore but honestly who wouldn’t
Also: Dumbledore gave the DADA position (one he knew was LEGITIMATELY CURSED so someone could only last for a year) to a guy who had been travelling in the last known place Voldemort had been seen.
the good old blogs, who were thirsty on main, posting this’ll be the day that I deactivate and shift to Twitter / Mastodon / Discord / Dreamwidth /
A long, long time ago I can still remember how That blue site used to make me wet And I knew if I had my shot I could make it with the thots And see just how horny we could get
But then December was a drag When every post I made was flagged Your blog is in review And the site’s more red than blue
I can’t remember what came first The enby titties or the thirst But something touched me deep inside The day the horny died
So
Bye, bye, to this site full of creeps Shook my ass with some class and posted some feet And I was scrolling when I just couldn’t sleep Singing this’ll be the day I delete, This’ll be the day I delete
Do you know how to eat good ass Or jack it to some nuns at mass If the urge takes you so? Do you believe in sluts and hoes Can buttholes sooth your mortal soul Can you teach me how to eat pussy real slow?
Well I know that you’re in love with me So here’s the link to my KoFi You sent me your dick picks All day and night for kicks
I was a lonely fetish cammer here With a fresh-shaved head and a well-worn sneer And I knew nobody else would leer The day the horny died I started singing
Bye, bye, to this site full of creeps Shook my ass with some class and posted some feet And I was scrolling when I just couldn’t sleep Singing this’ll be the day I delete, This’ll be the day I delete
Now for 11 years we’ve been on this site Blogging through the day and night But that’s not how it used to be
Facebook’s full of Mom & Dad Myspace took a hit real bad Twitter discourse is just real sad
SESTA/FOSTA took Craigslist down Backpage got run outta town So it seemed like we were stuck On Tumblr we could fuck
Verizon tried to hit the mark And then it one day jumped the shark And we sing dirges in the dark The day the horny died We’re all singing
Bye, bye, to this site full of creeps Shook my ass with some class and posted some feet And I was scrolling when I just couldn’t sleep Singing this’ll be the day I delete, This’ll be the day I delete
I met a girl who used to hoe And asked if she knew where we could go But she just smiled and turned away.
I logged in to my mainstream blog And tried to write a silly song But the music wouldn’t stay
And on my dash the children screamed The thots went dark and the Nazis preened A thousand words were spoken The reblogs all were broken
And the place that I’d enjoyed the most Full of all my best shitposts, Raised a final glass to toast The day the horny died.
And we were singing
Bye, bye, to this site full of creeps Shook my ass with some class and posted some feet And I was scrolling when I just couldn’t sleep Singing this’ll be the day I delete, This’ll be the day I delete
I was singing
Bye, bye, to this site full of creeps Shook my ass with some class and posted some feet And I was scrolling when I just couldn’t sleep Singing this’ll be the day I delete.
