lol, as if the internet would survive long enough to be studied archeologically. most digital media lasts 10 years, 20 tops. future archeologists will get whatever was worth laser-etching into a sapphire disc and they'll just have to live with that.

stronger products need less advertising, so an over-advertised product is likely inferior.

Technically there is a successor to Vib-Ribbon but it's iPhone only if I recall? "Russian Dancing Men".

Retro/Grade is a rhythm/shooter mashup where you travel backwards through time and un-fire a bunch of lasers to un-kill a bunch of ships. It was designed for a guitar hero controller if I recall? I found the visuals nauseating and the music lackluster but that premise is gold and deserves another chance.

Also PLEASE play the music backwards??? It's a game about going back in time, c'monnnnn.

Alley Cat actually got a second chance! Look up "Alley Cat: ReMeow"

If they enable IMAP for all accounts that'd be awesome. I've been reluctant to use their mail system in case it just becomes another lock-in.

syncthing is the easy option if you have some files you always want to have on both. if you just want to access your desktop files from your phone, I recommend Cx File Explorer for Android, it's a file browser that supports various network file share protocols including Samba and SFTP.

I'm impressed that you found a way to give an answer less helpful than 'just google it.' Where do you think chatgpt (and google) get their knowledge?? Threads like this one.

I would avoid the .us domain unless you have a good spam filter. If you register with .us, you get put on a public list, and you get calls from people begging you to hire them to design your website.

I dont. Its honestly not great. I'd rather that effort went to preserving and repairing the existing tools of the free and open web -- the old protocols are extensible. Imagine if we had an RSS client with a "reblog" feature!

"Federation" adds overhead and honestly creates as many problems as it solves. It's not a selling point, its a price tag.

Bones, i appreciate your posts but I think you're completely missing the point with your titles; meat tea is awesome.
