Did you know? 💡

By the standards of Russian XVIII century political police you would be considered insane 😹

Good! But I think it somehow shifts the responsibility for what the Web has become with Chrome, but that's (at least partially) unfair 😅

@vint @neural_meduza
Я уже давно только по названию учётки понимаю, что новость не настоящая 😨

@iska
Sure — lack of WebP support 😏

@davoloid
I think modern Gopherspace (which somehow survived) and Geminispace are in a way reincarnation of that culture — I see people even experimenting making interactive games, and I've seen Geminicapsule designed as a piece of interactive fiction using hyperlinks, you don't see stuff like that often in Webspace anymore — it's too vast to find something interesting and too commercialised.

@davoloid
Yeah, dial-up BB systems I had frequented had some card games and text mini quests, some systems even had specialised GUI software that you had to use to access that BBS instead of terminal, it was almost Web-like 🤩
But then people somehow transitioned to FidoNet and later to Internet and the Web, the culture died out. TBH I didn't even see Gopher being used in my early Internet days — I knew that the protocol existed, but I didn't even know what it's for 😅

> you need to find the url and copy paste it somewhere
It can be solved client-side, I think that is what Tusky and by extension Husky do — if it looks like a link to a Fedi post, it goes to that post instead of opening the link in external browser.
As for quote posts — IMO they should give more context than link previews, in Pleroma the quoted posts are just displayed in full, unlike link previews in Masto.

@davoloid
I see, it recreates the things specific to that BBS faithfully. Nostalgia value.
In my dialup-modem-BBS days the modems were already more performant and ANSI art was quite widespread, gomphotherium displaying images using blocks and ANSI sequences for colour kinda reminds me of that — that's why I mentioned it.

@davoloid
Quite common these days: some instances block other instances 😩
It about the lack for emoji reaction support in tut and my reply about it being trivial to add.

@romin
I think we should start selling t-shirts with "never update" 😆

@romin
But "muh vulnerabilities" 😱

@pyrate
WDYM doesn't support emojis? It displays them if your term supports them and you can view media with your default software for those file types by pressing "m".
It doesn't support emoji reactions, but it's trivial to add — it's like five lines of code.

@davoloid
And if you would like TUI Fediverse experience in general, check out tut — it's quite a full-featured client: https://github.com/RasmusLindroth/tut/
It hasn't been updated in quite some time, but it still works fine.

@davoloid
Check out gomphotherium — it can even display images on your timeline as pseudographics 😄

@romin
Yep, sadly a lot of projects have caught on with the new bullshit 😖

@romin
RETVRN TO 1.10 👴

@newt
You cannot use it as a dating site anymore 🤷

@iska
I did see some of your posts on the timeline before I went to bed, which was early in the morning I think.

@falcennial
You've been… THUNDERSTRUCK!
Yeah-yeah-yeah, thunderstruck!!! 🤣
