@seamus this is excellent news!! Love that show.
I'm playing A Plague Tale: Innocence today so, here's a reminder that Medieval Europeans washed themselves daily and bathed at least once a week, that communal bathhouses were so popular that the clergy railed against them and that clothing was so colorful that it was lit up like a Lisa Frank painting. I'm begging you, stop covering people in filth and leather straps*!

To this extent I'm really interested to know how the age breakdown of people on the #Fediverse. On one hand it would seem to make sense to me that most people here remember the "old internet" before the centralization and they're here to rekindle that flame of independence. On the other hand the youths are generally pretty up on this whole technology thing. I grew up on the internet and since then smartphones have become even more ubiquitous.
