We're chasing that dream-like feeling of floating free in the air and playing around, be it real or fantasy. Any post type that conveys this feeling is welcome. Check the post flairs for examples.

What qualifies for Floating Is Fun is open to interpretation. I encourage everyone to post what they like to see. Give us a gentle push and we'll float pretty far.

We started on Reddit /r/FloatingIsFun in 2021 and moved here in 2023. All 400+ posts from the original from the original subreddit have been reposted here, so you're not missing anything.

GNU, KDE store #levitation

This color drawing depicts a levitating gnu, deep in meditation, wrapped snugly in a gold robe. Both he and his computer float gracefully above the floor—only his tail lightly touches the ground. He gently holds a recorder between his front hooves, as if he has just gotten the inspiration to charm his computer with music. There is a gleam in his eyes as he gazes ahead at his computer screen.

I don't like posing unsourced art here. What I really wanted to post was this GNU-tan version but I can't find a source! OS-tan groups are unusually bad with stealing art, and I'm afraid the origin is likely lost to link rot.
