I'm scared ok? I'm scared of all the people that I've wronged over the years, how I can't show my face around them again, I'm scared of all the people I got mad at and left because they like something that I don't, I'm scared of myself and how I keep going off about things that I don't like because I feel like I should be accepting it but I actually don't and I just get mad and confused and want to remove myself from anything, and like. I'm sorry but I'm also scared. I don't want to hurt anyone or frustrate anyone or be petty about something and I want to be in control of what I say and I don't know how to address any of that except for venting about it. I'm so lost in the remains of the mess that I made for myself and I just want help but it's probably not going to solve anything anyway

@dabric I think cohost was the only one that did it right; you got a NSFW toggle and a content warning button which made it easier to parse for both people and computers! except that it was a bit of a closed off platform with an undocumented api so lmao on that last part

genuinely speaking people need to explicitly say if a space is Asexual Friendly. and I mean friendly to every kind of asexual

like come on now do you Really want to use nostr vine?
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
let me just say that the "comeback of vine with AI detection" doesn't sound as great when it's built by cryptobros hooked up to a network full of cryptobros

@dabric usually if you can't click the link on your end you should just be able to dump the URL in the search bar. it's a really confusing flow unfortunately

@rifter yeah, bluesky is the only one that actually sort of succeeded and they're still relatively tiny in the grand scheme of things (and the fediverse is a single crumb at this point)
eblu @eblu@wetdry.world
said this elsewhere already but I think the other thing that really rubbed me the wrong way on cohost is how things got Waaaaay too kinky. which I completely support people being openly into weird stuff but it just made me uncomfortable seeing all that on my feed that often

@rifter I think the other hangup for me now that I remember is that it got Waaaaay too kinky on there. which honestly I support people being into whatever but it got to the point where it was a good chunk of what was on my feed and it made me personally feel uncomfortable so I left

@rifter uh it was basically tumblr but less corporate, created by a few people who really wanted a "fourth website" and were kind of burned after the mastodon instance that they were on imploded. I think they did a lot of things pretty well but the the few bad decisions were Really bad (banking on making their own payment processor to fund the thing, utter lack of any discovery features whatsoever) and brought them down in the end. it was all closed source so nobody can really make their own, minus whatever's going on in the website league

@nu yeah I think the idea was good, it just fell flat as it only really attracted a certain few demographics and alienated everyone else in pursuit of very lofty ideals. kind of like the fediverse actually

hot(?) take people go on about cohost but it really did not click unless you were a queer leftist furry from either boston or the west coast of the united states imo
