i'd like to believe that when colin from this does not compute breaks out the spudger, the crowd goes wild like when james hetfield hits the Em add9 at gillette stadium
i have about 2000 followers over on twitter and i find it almost unusable... i've got some friends who have ten times that many, or even more, and i really don't even understand how they make a single post. how does anyone get used to having that many people read everything they say
i've been having a hell of a time meeting like-minded streamers... i think a lot of vtubers see this whole thing as a get rich quick scheme or they really want to be famous and that's something i can't really relate to lol
one thing you learn when you start cleaning your keyboard every couple weeks is that most people don't clean their keyboard a single time. over its entire lifespan
i can't believe i can recognize war of the dead from a screenshot of the title screen. i haven't even played that game in four or five years. falling asleep to chrontendo every night does something to you doesn't it
Personal sites won't be successful again because they were never successful at all - they weren't made to "succeed", they were made to have your own cool place on this big internet thing.
The idea that we have to reap metrics, validation, "success", for anything to be worth doing has infected us.
i wouldn’t call my bluesky account my primary revenue driver but i’d estimate it’s generated between $12 and $14 million so far. there’s obviously growth potential but that’s about where you want it to be at the one-year mark, so i’m not at all worried about it
i think i've posted about this before, on bluesky even, but when people talk about how any sort of yesterweb revival is impossible because the world has moved on and home pages won't attract tons of readers i feel like they're missing the point. it's like saying why scrapbook when no one will buy it
i wish i could unabashedly be myself but it's pretty hard. this is one of the shitty things about social media imo... we're all in a panopticon with no real middle ground between sharing our thoughts with the entire world and retreating into private accounts and sharing them with possibly no one
