We're chasing that dream-like feeling of floating free in the air and playing around, be it real or fantasy. Any post type that conveys this feeling is welcome. Check the post flairs for examples.
What qualifies for Floating Is Fun is open to interpretation. I encourage everyone to post what they like to see. Give us a gentle push and we'll float pretty far.
We started on Reddit /r/FloatingIsFun in 2021 and moved here in 2023. All 400+ posts from the original from the original subreddit have been reposted here, so you're not missing anything.

MODERATORS
Yup, people slept on the Windows 95 port of S3&K. Beta Sonic 3 music and a screen saver of peak Classic Sonic attitude. It was weird.
By the way, the original Reddit post has is the 3rd lowest-rated post on the entire subreddit, with a final score of 0, only out-downvoted by juggling and Home Depot. The only more controversial post was near-NSFW balloon riding. I'm glad the Fediverse crowd is giving the Sonic Screensaver some love.
Yeah man.
Itβs insane how we all thought that the Sonic & Knuckles Collection music was made specifically for the Windows port when it turns out it was actually the original music. Everyoneβs mind was blown during the Hidden Palaceβs reveal livestream.

Sonic the Hedgehog the Screen Saver
Title: Sega World 1995 Calendar Art
Artist: Sega
It's Hedgehog Day! The Windows Sonic & Knuckles Collection CD-ROM came with a screensaver, a slideshow containing official art from the Japanese Sega World calendars and other sources. We don't know how Sonic, Tails, and the Sega Saturn are floating, but they're up there long enough to play a game on that monitor and make Knuckles go "Bung!"
