(Experimental?) New Features in Kibicat Mastodon 

The other day I was talking with some friends about the “old days” before Mastodon supported CWs, and how we used to EBG13 nyy bs bhe cbfgf because, guess what, if Mastodon didn’t have CWs we still wouldn’t throw nyy guvf fuvg out in the open. I realized that I actually kind of liked ROT13 better than the current system, because you could only ROT13 ⁜cneg⁜ bs n cbfg and the remainder would give the reader context as to how the problematic bit was being used.

Then I realized that our old ROT13 system was an effective plaintext fallback for pbagrzcbenel Qvfpbeq-fglyr fcbvyre gntf and that I could just implement that in Mastodon, so I did.

GlitchCat users! You can now create inline spoilers in your posts by using a <spoiler-text> HTML tag in either the Markdown or HTML content modes. Spoilers ⁜can⁜ include emoji but ⁜cannot⁜ include other markup like links, mentions, or hashtags.

Spoilers federate as ROT13 with special properties so that other servers can recognize them. If you are on another Mastodon instance which supports Markdown and HTML content modes, let me know and I can get you a patch!

also, you can get LITERALLY every necesarry item from a fishing minigame, the tokens for which you can farm trivially, you just wait around long enough

really weird that i have yet to see a review of sonic frontiers mention that basically every reward you get for exploring aronud (except for vault tokens) can be farmed by spinning in circles, in place, if you’re patient enough.

why would you undermine the rewards for exploration. in an open world game.

(specifically the confirmation popup is broken; sorry local users we’ll fix that lmao)

oh my god he completely ignores the multiple layers with which the game undermines the need to actually explore

lol

(for clarity: GlitchSoc is already a queer trans fork; i mean a slightly harder queer trans fork which is friends with GlitchSoc and Hometown but isn’t as concerned with upstream compatibility)

@maloki led that charge and you can see her recent posts for more on how it went; i won’t try to summarize it here

HOWEVER in the time since then, we have also had new projects spring up in the form of GlitchSoc and Hometown; please please support these as they are the future of Mastodon development

also, if you want to get to work on a queer trans fork, @ me

it is truly embarrassing that there are sides of sonic fandom talking about frontiers as if it is not an embarrassment

this follows the most bullshit part of the game by far and directly precedes one of the coolest and i think that actually makes it a good summary of what frontiers is like

“i guess the love of pinball predates civilization”

—actually sonic the hedgehog 2022. he was not joking or being facetious when he said that. i am not either
