It's like a website (league) in here
Posted 2024-11-01I'm now on the Website League! Long story short: I miss cohost. Personal websites, as an alternative to post on, aren't exactly zero-friction. They also feel kind of lonely to me. (And I don't really have high hopes for Bluesky, even if I was active on there for a bit...) Either way, I wanted to be more meaningfully online, and if websites weren't really helping with that I wanted to go somewhere promising, hence the League! "And where did you decide to go, exactly?"
...I joined the Please TF Me node. I'm not ashamed about it! Well. I'm trying to not be. I think it's just that I spent a long time being unabashedly into it, but also at the same time being terribly open about everything else on the internet, and those just kinda coagulated into me just curling up into a ball of discomfort whenever I looked back on that time and swearing I'd never do it again. It... might've been an overreaction. But now that I'm older, hopefully wiser, I kinda wanted to just... find a place where I didn't have to worry about any of that. So I was like, fuck it. I'm joining the TF instance. No alt, no filter, what I'm into is what I'm into — not just TF, but all my other interests that I was filtering myself on for whatever reason. Just gotta register, and...
...It took a few days. (Yeah, I did that trope twice. Deal with it.) Of course the anxiety wasn't going to go away immediately, Dusk, you literally joined a site named "Please TF Me"! All of that aside, though, it's been a really nice time there so far. It's been cozy. It's got creatures. I talked a bit about what I'm into. I made some stuff, reported some bugs... It's not the same as cohost, but I want it (and the League) to succeed. So I'm doing my best to make it a nice place for me to be on the internet, and hopefully it'll make it a nice place for you, too. Here's my profile (18+ only, please!).
