Today's thought: I wish more #podcasts included transcripts. I know it's a lot more hard work compared to just recording yourself talking & calling it a day (not that making a podcast isn't already work bc it certainly is), but there's so many I'd like to listen to except they're long and I don't have time + my audio processing is not great so I often have to re-listen to parts, which makes them even longer. To say nothing of how helpful it would be for deaf and hard of hearing folks.
A friend of mine has helped building a VN recommendation site to introduce beginners to visual novels, or to just recommend some (hopefully) new stuff to people who already like VNs as well. I tried out the recommender quiz, and it looks pretty decent! You can very easily nudge the parameters to make it recommend you things for specific genres and limit it to eg. only VNs available in English so you don't have to filter through untranslated ones.
Man I really wish there was a #fandom centric instance, for #fanfic and #fanart and #RP and stuff, sadly don't have the money or know how or time to run it myself. I feel like an instance of Mastodon and PixelFed (when that gets a tad more full featured) alongside their existing offerings would be right up the alley of #AO3/the #OTW.
そういえば最近マストで日本語を使っていないな、なんか寂しい。時々日本鯖でアカウント作ろうかなとは思うけど、正直言って多分外人が来ても誰もうれしくないだろうと思うｗ
Finally found a flag I like. It includes nb lesbians, it includes ace lesbians, it's not drab and boring like the ace flag, it's not potentially uncomfortable for non femmes like the lipstick lesbian flag. I've seen it around Tumblr a bit, maybe it'll catch on. Even if not I think I'll be keeping it for myself.
The creator described its meaning on their blog: http://apersnicketylemon.tumblr.com/post/173994129517/so-i-did-a-lesbian-flag-redesign-because-really
What a nice thing to run into here at the tail end of Pride Month.
Hey, there's a developer called voodoo.io out there who keeps ripping off of indie devs' core game concepts, and releasing a shitty F2P version on app stores before the indie devs have finished their games.
Goldman Sachs gave them $200m in investment recently, so they're not going anywhere soon, but you can encourage you and your friends to ignore the fuck out of their games.

.@mhall119 is developing an ethical alternative to #MeetUp called #GetTogether.
There's already a flagship site up and running:
https://gettogether.community/
The dev is working on #ActivityPub support and is requesting feedback on what more needs to be done:

If you're interested in helping federate GetTogether, join the discussion at the link above.
I'm not trying to subtoot or call out anyone but there's been some discussion of ASPD and NPD around my timeline recently and would heavily appreciate if these topics could be CW'd for benefit of myself and anyone else who they might bring up bad memories for. Thank you.
Hey when I google for a tutorial, or a brief on something, know what I don't want? A YouTube video. I don't want a long, slow, ad-filled and unedited video full of ummms and uhhhhs explaining something a handful of screen shots and a few hundred words could do.

But yes what I was actually coming here to say was I've reluctantly started moving into #Amazon Music Unlimited bc I'm on my sister's household account & can't afford Spotify Premium, but goddamn the selection is Bad. They just released the Detroit Become Human soundtrack on the *other* major services so I could stream it on Spotify if I wanted but on Amazon I'd have to pay $35 for it even though we've got this fancy sub :| there's always piracy ofc but I'd rather the creators get some cash...

#mastodon web app is officially banned from the household of Sky T. Sky because whenever I accidentally press the back button on my phone my toot drafts completely disappear and that's Not Cool
Really loving this Birdsite bot that creates gentle, diverse, LGBT+ Dungeons and Dragons characters. Some amazing art prompts here: https://twitter.com/tenderdnd
