A little banger from TW I thought I should share

Going live with my buddy boos! We be doing some wizardry in Magicka! It's DLC time so time to go experience some extra trauma from the Vietnam Catch me here: https://vstream.com/c/@rox4/live

The Palworld discourse is.. hard I guess. On one hand I have no issue with supporting a game using AI. As it itself is just a tool like any other so the word itself is fine On the other they have most likely stolen art which is, you know, CRIMINAL and should obviously neither be allowed or rewarded So while Palworld might be doing something illegal, I'm not very against it. At least against a thing like Nintendo At the same time, I don't want to support someone abusing the current lack of laws and proper law enforcement to just do whatever they want I'm unsure of everything 🫠

Ugh.. This new twitter migration is giving me a headache. I have been deep diving into website alternatives. Here's the things I have found. Tried to take them in the order I would use, although that's is wholly my opinion

Tumblr

I'm gonna keep being on tumblr. Wether or not I go to other sites. While tumblr shows sign of being "algorithmd" it's all optional. So as long as it stays that way I have no reason to leave

Pillowfort

I have actually not found anything bad on this one. It also seems to be owned by a company which is great. It even started on Tumblr! Either way, it's small for now and because of how non-algorithmd it seems to be they don't seem to be very business first. Which is good for usage! Bad for growth.

I'll probably join this one, I'll come back to this thread if I find something bad I guess

Vtubers.me

This seems like an okay alternative, has been running for a while too. Sadly it is 100% owned by 1 person. Which will always have the same issues of sudden implosion, stupid standards or simple malpractice.

This person has been under fire due to a drama fight with a trans person. For the most part it seems resolved, but it has shown a couple of red flags. Example that they seem to have very weird views on trans, while not outright malicious they seem very uninformed and for example against transkids.. They are also EXTREMELY personally involved in their product. As to say they could totally ban you for disagreeing with you.

I would however rather bet on 1 random person than 1 random rich person trying to cash grab. Sadly the website itself is more targeted to Vtubers than Vtuber audiences so it has a very niche reach

Co-Host

These weirdos will tell you nothing. They run fully on charity and for some reason people accept "not telling you how we control and decide things worth" as a positive?!?! Anyway, they are very selective with accounts and very secretive about all innerworkings of the site. I would not trust, but nothing EXCEPTIONALLY bad has come forth yet. I.e. Nothing bad but nothing good either.

Mastodon

While a great server hosting program it is no different than being on private forums. Any owner has FULL control of all content therein. This includes if someone wants to do something less than legal on their server as Mastodon themselves takes NO responsibility for their content.

Have not found any group owned servers yet although this for sure isn't the worst alternative

Spoutible

Yeah.. This is just Twitter but Black. As in the owner is still a too rich, soulless, micromanaging, manipulating, criticism flaming pile of poop, but black this time...

Oh, and has had known crypto dealings

Hive

Stay away from this thing. It's closer to malware than a social media site.

Tried out some multi streaming today. Went well I would say. Haven't seen any issues, yet at least! Probably gonna keep doing Youtube + Twitch as my viewership is both not recovering but most importantly not counting on twitch. The new "view" definitions is so weird A bit unhappy witht my own effort on stream though, these fights with landowners, healthcare, insurance etc is taking it's toll. Welp, gonna go eat burgers now at least! :D

[roxo4me]

Yeah, I'm sorry but I'm probably gonna start using tumblr less soon, again.

In reality the biggest reason is just that Bluesky is too good. All my media life has just gotten better from being on there

It's so easy to block bad actors, find more of what you like and so far my side of the community is wonderful. I love em
