lot of stuff ive seen from large follower account people trying to hold the line on exodus to other sites like mastodon, is stuff like "people do <bad learnt social media habit> there", "its a lot of work for moderators" and "transmisogyny happens there" and like yeah no thats called all online social spaces everywhere.
Mastodon and the fedi doesn't have to be a perfect solution, just better than the alternative right now. Perhaps the reality is that no one social media site should be allowed to hold such a unbreakable sway on public consciousness for so long.
Stop using Adobe products, or any software that is sold to you as a subscription.
Software as a Service is an anti-consumer cancer, and it's only a matter of time before corporations will normalize this and abuse the power imbalance dynamic created to control your ability do do things on your own PC.
A few years ago I made this flow chart of which Mastodon posts end up in which timelines!
So, you can see how each instance will have a different local timeline, and even a slightly different federated timeline - and you can see why the federated timeline moves so much faster than the local one, too.
This is why it's important to boost good posts and use hashtags - the fediverse is fragmented and harder to search by nature.
i pulled out fl studio really briefly and just made an extremely quick tune that's pretty much 100% this progression in a few different forms layered on top of each other
...which turned out to be a pretty neat experiment!
So, it appears that we have started to work on expanding and refining the GameJam entry that Julayla/Rayna made on July 2021, and we feel that eventually we'll be doing all the asset creation ourselves, and here's a WIP of the regular battle theme.

Today in the dystopia, Adobe decides to adopt the same business model as the bad guy from Rainbow Bright.

Fun times ahead for #Adobe designers. Today, if you open a PSD (even one that's 20 years old) with an obscure PANTONE colour, it will remove the colour and make it black. Pantone want US$21/month for access, and Solid Coated goes behind the paywall in early November.
