Gracious Anthracite is a user on dragon.style. You can listen to them or interact with them if you have an account anywhere in the fediverse.
Another day, another burst of new users from Twitter who are kind of confused about this whole “instance” thing. Here’s an analogy that might work for older folks like me:
Each Mastodon instance is a BBS. And they are all connected behind the scenes, kind of like FidoNet or WWIVNet.
We don’t have any door games, though. Sorry.
@anthracite If we wanted door games we'd go back to FriendFace, lol. (Actually I loved L.O.R.D. and Exitilus growing up - there's a browser port of Exitilus! I'm sure there's one for LORD out there too.)
@zoetropeexplosn gets really stoned
writes a port of drug wars that runs as a toot bot
@anthracite Aw yeah I forgot about Drug Wars, and Barney Splat! where you systematically planned mayhem on the set of Barney and Friends.
