I just launched Quorbo at https://quorbo.com, a simple letter-revealing game (think Wheel of Fortune with some twists) where you get 6 turns to guess the day's quote!

It's my first post-parenthood side project, first thing to ship since ditching Twitter for Mastodon, and first web game. Being a working dad has taught me (for the first time,😬) to focus on simplicity. Anyway, i hope you have fun with it!

Quorbo

The quick & quirky quest for the quote!

Stop glamourising “hustle culture” and start glamourising the Frog and Toad lifestyle.

@evan I think having a "HugOps hotline" sounds like a really good idea!
Back in the hayday of message boards, there were "Big Board Operator" forums where admins could share tips or ask for help.
Perhaps @jerry is aware of one already exists?

I am lucky enough to own my own servers in a colo and have *seen some things*, so I am happy to help out any smaller Fediverse instances that need help with hosting or configs or even moderation assistance!

@eevee Do you have a link to the details on why it's shutting down?
I would be happy to help, either with keeping it online or extending the shutdown window to allow people to migrate safely.

Have servers, will use 'em!

I’ll come to bed soon. I’m on Mastodon, and I’ve never seen so many people online before who aren’t wrong on the internet!

It’s glorious.

Today in scary-as-fuck things that happened on Twitter:

Replies were down for about two hours there on Twitter. You couldn't reply if you were on a web browser, either on PC or on mobile.
That's not the scary part.

The scary part is that you couldn't *discover* that anything was wrong. No trending hashtag. No streams filling up with people taking about replies being broken. No hundred polls saying, "hey, is this happening to you, too?"

Just... silence. As if everything is totally fine.
