@noiob there's a surprising amount of neat little things that a lot of softkeyboards do
i still like the whole "swiping the spacebar left or right lets you move the cursor" thing
@noiob woah. that is significantly faster than what i've been doing
i'm definitely gonna start doing that from now on
thank you..! ^^
covid, abuse
@shaderphantom gosh yeah
i managed to extract someone from a really bad situation near the beginning of the year, and now i feel like we've dodged so many bullets that collectively we're basically neo at this point
i really hope that others who are trapped will be alright, since, now more than ever, they will likely be relying on others for their needs
@noiob oh yeah! i'm not even anticipating they'll be back for a while, and that's okay. i'll do my best to get used to it in the meantime (speaking of, TIL the @ syntax! though that seems absent here too)
also yep! ddg bangs are how i usually survive without keywords, but i do have a pretty substantial number that are pretty specific to me (plus bangs are slow to type on phones)
@noiob oh yeah! the new theming is pretty neat, and while it'll take me a little to get used to the new locations for some stuff, it overall seems a lot snappier
i do miss my keyword searches though; they are the main reason i started using firefox mobile in the first place
the faq does say some features are missing, and they are gonna reimplement them with each new release, so i'm glad there's acknowledgement they might come back soon!
tangent re: "i wanna learn a thing"
@IceWolf hee yeah, i certainly have some pretty gnarly muscle memory because of emacs
if i tried, i probably could defend its reasons, but the fact that i would even need to means that it's archaic and unclear
super mario maker 2 is getting an update, spoilers on that, also lewd reference
@EeveeEuphoria but for reals though, i'm suuuuper into the idea of being able to make entire worlds, and i like a lot of the new powerup options quite a lot, hee
i'm probably gonna sink a lot of time into the game again!

@EeveeEuphoria i can't wait to play stages as emolga mario
duolingo 100 day streak, long post
@typhlosion oh! congrats!! 100 days is a pretty big deal
i feel like you're gonna really have a lot of fun when you get to a point where you can read longer-form text~ ^^
physical health
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz this is so weird to me. i almost never hear about ear infections, but this is the fourth one i've heard about in the last few weeks
if you can get someone to look into your ear with a flashlight or something to make sure it's not swollen or discolored, i highly recommend doing that, because this kind of thing can suuuck if it gets worse
if things aren't better soon, i recommend getting some polysporin ear drops and/or getting it checked out
@EeveeEuphoria good luck, i hope you feel better soon..!
(and stay safe!)
@tom oh no! the worst kind
@ctrlaltdog@chitter.xyz i do really like how you only need to move one hand to aim with detached joycons, but gosh, they can be so unreliable
pro controllers on the other hand are great in basically every other way, and are extremely solid and comfy in comparison. maybe i should really try to get more used to them too ^^'
oh hi! i do computers, and sometimes draw stuff~ i like lo-fi things and cute aesthetics!
i also probably like you
