UPDATE: Ownership will be transferred to @paul and the instance will remain active, announcement post

Ninja, the owner of the instance, is retiring from naturist advocacy for personal reasons, and is therefore closing the instance. He mentions he's open to transferring admin to somebody else as long as his data privacy concerns about the transfer are addressed, otherwise the instance closes in July.

pl.nudie.social is only one of two Mastodon instances oriented towards the naturist community, the other being body.social, which is notorious for not requiring Content Warnings for nudity, which naturally puts it at odds with other Fediverse instances.

Time to let go

Just tried to create an account on fedia.io, which is the biggest of the mbin instances (at just about a bit above 4K users, so not THAT much), and it just could NOT take the registration, all i get is "429 Too Many Requests", after multiple tries. I suspect that says the instance is woefully underpowered for the traffic it's handling

The problem of course is that the vast mass of consumers won't do this, it's only us weirdos

Persistent apps running in the background. One constant complaint many have is background apps that should be left alone killed by battery-saving stuff. One of the ways to prevent this from happening that devs have used is persistent notifications. Killing this option fucks up lots of apps that are supposed to run in the background. I guess i'll stay away from Android 14 for now.

That's because Steam/Proton has mostly solved this (with some qualified notorious exceptions), which used to be a real problem even just a few years ago, but not remotely as much these days; the meme is mostly outdated by now, I've lived both cases and it used to be a pain but these days? people are spoiled by Valve and many have never lived the OP situation (which is great news!)

Honestly Steam and Proton have solved like 90% or more of this issue, i was in this spot in the past for a long, long time, but Steam has made this work almost seamlessly for a great number of games

And then i got the Steam Deck and this went into overdrive

At this point i feel like Linux is a realistic option for a gamer, qualified of course (anti-cheat tech tends to break things, plus there's a few problematic ones), but we are at the point where you can buy an AAA title and be relatively confident it will run on Linux (check first though)

I hope this breaks the games on Deck so that people notice

The anime is not TOO bad, but i've been firmly told to stay the fuck away from the original sources. I wish we had a more grounded one though.

I've heard it described as "Japan in Civilization playing for a domination victory"
