I use all three: mastodon, bluesky, and twitter. Mostly because people I follow are on different platforms. Personally, I would settle for mastodon alone. There is a recent big wave of artists moving from twitter to bluesky because twitter got new policy that makes it impossible to opt-out from using images posted on twitter as AI training material. Actually those new rules to me sound like they're problematic in terms of author rights in general, not only AI stuff.
It has some cool features that aren't available even in some of the leading industry DAWs like key/scale note highlight, but it also lacks some absolutely essential basic features like showing the playback position in beat mode (it means when you writing beats you can't see where playback is at currently).
Yep, maybe it would benefit from more advertisement but I decided to not recommend it until I experience it for some time. It took me a week or two to realize that I don't like moderation at lemmy-world for example, I would definitely recommend choosing other instances, and then, it takes time to figure out which ones are worth recommending. Some are extremist far-left/far-right, some are at risk of shutting down if admin gets bored and decides to stop paying for hosting from his personal money.
It's the most popular instance with questionable politics and moderation and this move pushes people to other instances before they even discover deeper issues there. Most instances have zero issues with VPNs, and it doesn't even matter what is the parent instance of community you're posting to. Which means you can post the same stuff into the same place from almost any other instance using VPN.
Finished Mawaru Penguindrum - this one was a wild ride! I enjoyed most of it, but the way it jumps between genres and the plot and character development in the second half of the show are quite extreme and sometimes questionable. Some things were hard to follow for me, but core ideas are very inspiring and leave room for thinking even outside of anime context.
Silent Hill (Duckstation) - classic survival horror game
- great atmosphere, strong sense of mystery and dread
- oldschool approach to mystery/horror where everything doesn't have to be explained or logical
- some outstanding puzzles
- combat is kinda annoying, but when you play with emulator you at least have saves everywhere

Today I started my day with two really nice ambient / noise / experimental podcasts:

At the moment listening to Groove Salad at Soma FM.
Not much you can do other than researching the current consensus. And for the latter you can try to search discussions about its safety. Good query to start with is "is programname malware/spyware".
I'm pretty much happy with conversations I see here. Plenty of quality discussion threads in AskLemmy, Gaming and Technology and Anime. Would be nice to see even more ofc, but Lemmy's not that big yet I guess. Questions is something that often starts interesting discussions.
By the way, imagine how Piper Perry would look if she was drawn as anime character. Would you consider that extreme lolicon? She's almost 30 y/o and that is absolutely legal even in real porn.

There are so many things that look goofy yet you choose to post a perfectly fine dragonish character. This one looks good to me.
