It counts the keyboard taps & cursor clicks (optional) that you make, and your desktop pet cat taps whenever you type/click. As a reward for your tippity tappity productivity, you periodically get random cat costumes and skins. You can also buy/sell the costumes & reskins on the steam community marketplace.
It doesn’t work on Linux for me (mint btw), but I use it on my school laptop
I’m not sure how segregation/listening of inputs works between software in Linux, but if there’s a way around it to get bongo cat to work… 👉👈

Ohhh, I read your concern as how to grow in popularity, but… I can’t read @.@
I think Litchralee pretty much detailed what I’d do. Use a separate phone, or ig in a browser. My bf had a yolo tablet once, to show his niece how easily “popular” he can get just by posting random cat memes. We learned that if you follow too many accounts at once or get too many follows quickly, they’ll block your account until you do a facial scan, so… That was the end of that experiment, lmao.
If you find the people you meet are using bluesky, I can… with hesitancy… recommend wafrn? I only hesitate because the design intent is like tumblr, and I’m not sure if that’s your vibe. It’s activitypub and atproto compatible, so you can share your one account with both bluesky and fediverse users. You can even spin up your own wafrn instance.
For situational awareness, the alt-text requirement for photos is on by default, but you can turn that off in your wafrn account.

If you’re in an urban kinda area, have you considered going to car meets and exchanging Instagram @s ?
Might be helpful to get your insta out there by going where the people already are.Most if not all my local car meets all advertise their next meet up spot on insta either plainly or by code name. I didn’t even post car pics, but organizers here (hawaii :) will follow anyone back, especially if they post car stuff.

It’d be on brand then - if they asked AI to write out an argument for them, they’d take credit for the whole essay & if found out, they’d claim it was what they wanted to convey anyway

My lil neato bot from 2017/2018ish makes a perimeter map around my place each time it deploys, then makes back and forth sweeps. It’s got a built in weekly timer by the quarter hour to schedule sweeps. It beeps at me when its bin is full. Why do robot vacuums need the internet?

Think of self-hosting as - instead of depending on cloud services from other entities (google/apple/whoever), you host those services yourself by running them on your own pc or maybe your secondary pc running 24/7 (usually locally, in your own home).
Some common services might be automatic photo backup and storage (like immich), or running an adblocker for your home network, or streaming movie/music from your hard drive to your phone/TV (like jellyfin).

Not sure if you were angling for this response or used a voice transcription service, but it’s *seizing, not ceasing, btw
Unrelated: sometimes I’ve had confusing chats over fb marketplace trying to gauge the other person’s tone/sanity, but found their texts were just off because they let voice-transcription take the wheel.

Someone breaks down why it’d be a monumental task for Valve/Itch to vertically integrate the whole payment processing thing into their business. The essay is highly readable.
The only thing I had to look up was
Escrow: a financial arrangement w/ a third party who holds/manages funds on behalf of two parties in a transactionMy takeaway was that Valve/itch/GOG would still be beholden to the banks who track porn as high risk for fraudulent transactions.
So what can we do about it? ~asking in earnest, btw. I buy porn and toys like a regular ass person, too~

(not asking specifically you, bridge, just didn’t want to leave the thread at a circle jerk) - Comment on Wafrn: a tumblr clone that federates with fedi and now also has opt in native bluesky 6 months ago:
For me, Tumblr was an online culture different from the ADHD of other journaling/blogging platforms like Instagram or Twitter. You could find conversations in tags, gifs didn’t lag my browser to hell, fan content was proliferous there, webpages could be personalized to the lengths you might’ve gone to in MySpace. It was the place to find fandoms and fandom content, even for the most obscure series. There were no ads. And I felt like gifs/texts of porn and kinks were made more accessible when searched for by tags.
There was no algorithm - discovery of new blogs was just subscribing to tags & maybe following who your followed-people followed, the way the fediverse kinda is.
I felt like the presentation was good to relish each post of content with less distraction, and the pagination + scroll browsing was just enough to keep me addicted.
Someone correct me if I’m remembering it wrong.
RIP 2011 Tumblr

@gabboman@app.wafrn.net ,
Is registration on the wafrn website backlogged? I submitted a registration bout 12 hours ago, and the registration page said to wait a few hours for review. Got nothin in my email just yet. Not that I’m antsy, and there’s no rush; just hoping to know when I should follow up to log in :u
I didn’t get any email confirmation about my submitted registration, I realize. I refrained to keep from spamming, but… Should I actually submit another? :x
Thank you for this! I’m not sure how I would’ve found out about Wafrn otherwise, lol
