I really enjoy Geminispace. The minimalism is its best feature. As soon as I have access to HTML and CSS, I'll fiddle with fonts, colors and layout. On my Gemini capsule I actually manage to write stuff. Gemtext is perfect as it is. No inline links provide a distraction free reading experience. The vibe is different because of the smaller community. It's a very friendly, cozy place.

    I prefer the Kobo to physical books, mostly because I have nowhere to put physical books, and I would lose a library book.

    Libraries got me back into reading. Strolling through shelfs and randomly discovering books is fun. And they offer eBooks as well.

    what does everyone else do when they’re struggling to read?

    I know the struggle. It's almost impossible for me to read at home, because of all the other entertainment options that steer my attention away from books. The best place for me to read a book is on a train. Poor mobile internet connection, not much else to do, earplugs + eReader.

    Healthy expectations also help. I don't expect me to read for hours. I'm very happy if I can focus on a book for 30 minutes at a time. If it's a good book, I know I'll pick it up again later.

    No, I've been on Lemmy and PieFed for so long that I forgot how it was on the shitty corporate site.

    I appreciate our own niche content we have here. I don't need everything and everyone to be here.

    Sympathisches YouTube-Format aus Österreich. 9 Spieler:innen spielen gegen 7 Hunter:innen eine Verfolgungsjagd in Saigon / Ho-Chi-Minh-Stadt, Vietnam.

    Gefilmt von den Teilnehmenden selbst mit jeweils 2 Action-Cams pro Person.

    Das Regelwerk ist mittlerweile ziemlich umfangreich, wird aber in diesem Video erklärt oder kann auf manhunt.at nachgeschlagen werden.

    Finanziert wird das ganze durch Werbung und Produktplatzierungen. Dagegen hilft SponsorBlock ganz gut. Ohne ist es teilweise echt viel Werbung.

    Aktuell sind 4 Folgen draußen und 2 neue kommen pro Woche immer Mittwochs und Sonntags raus. Am Ende sind es meist ca. 16 Folgen insgesamt.

    Anime Titties - Are You Still Watching? (animetitties.bandcamp.com)
     

    Discovered them on YouTube this morning while half asleep, opened their Bandcamp page and left the tab open, forgot about it, came back to my tab list a couple hours later and one of the tabs read "Are You Still Watching? | Anime Titties"...

    Was genuinely baffled by that tab, because I couldn't remember exactly what I did on my phone this morning, and I don't usually look at anime titties right after waking up. Then I opened the tab and remembered listening to their music...

    It's solid rock music. Reminds me of Weezer, some Queens of the Stone Age, a little bit early Royal Blood and some parts have a Deftones vibe. I especially like the singers voice and the fuzzy tuned down guitar.

    Thought I'd share my story about discovering Anime Titties this morning :)
