Dashcon 2 happening in Toronto and the only announced guest being strange aeons tells me all I need to know

hand it to my sister ez!

picture this, i give you a glass bottle and tell you to open it, but bottle openers are forbidden, how do you do it?

very useful

how to keep following people when a major social platform implodes

(...and you don't want to join 20 new websites)

First, get an RSS reader*-- here are some free options:

Desktop: Feedbro (browser extension), Fraidycat** (browser extension/web), Thunderbird, Dreamwidth (web)

Android: Feeder

iOS/Mac: NetNewsWire

You'll be able to make a custom feed to follow blogs, webcomics, social media feeds, podcasts, news, and other stuff on the web all in one place. To follow something, find its "feed URL"-- often marked by an icon that looks like this ↓-- and paste it into your reader of choice as a new feed.

Some feed URLs for social media/other sites:

Tumblr: Use username.tumblr.com/rss or username.tumblr.com/tagged/my%20art/rss to follow a blog's "my art" tag (as an example)

Cohost: Use username.cohost.org/rss/public

Mastodon: Use instance.url/@­username.rss

Deviantart: Info here

Spacehey: Info here

Youtube: Go to a channel in a web browser, view page source, and use Ctrl-F/Command-F to find a link that starts with "https://www.youtube.com/feeds/videos.xml?channel_id="

Reddit: Info here

Lemmy: At the top of a community's main page, there's a small RSS link next to where you sort posts/comments.

Some additions thanks to @innumerablewounds:

Dreamwidth: https://username.dreamwidth.org/rss (users can opt out of this).

Ao3: Tags have an "RSS Feed" button.

Bluesky: Add /rss to the end of a URL.

Neocities: https://neocities.org/site/username.rss

Sites that won't work all that great:

Twitter: Feedbro and Fraidycat** may be able to use Twitter profile URLs as feed URLs. Otherwise, use nitter.net/username/rss (or other Nitter instance) Public Nitter instances are dead/dying, and Twitter is now very hostile to pretty much anything that makes it easy to generate an RSS feed. For popular accounts, try this workaround using Google News...?

Instagram: Feedbro may be able to use Instagram profile and hashtag URLs as feed URLs. Check Feedbro's "scan interval" setting-- you could be rate limited or temporarily IP banned from Instagram if it makes requests too often!

Facebook: Feedbro may be able to use public Facebook group/page URLs as feed URLs, but see the warnings for Instagram.

Threads: Come on.

Also see how to find the RSS feed URL for almost any site. Try using public RSS-Bridge instances or Happyou Final Scraper to generate feeds for sites that don't have them (Pillowfort, Patreon, etc).

*You can set up your subscriptions in one reader and import them into another by exporting an OPML file. **Fraidycat's intended use is following a lot of people across different sites, so it's well-suited for this post and I'd recommend keeping an eye on it-- but I didn't recommend it initially because I had some issues with it, and it hasn't been updated in a while. The last time I used it, it didn't have a setting to change how often it makes requests to websites, causing me to get IP banned from Twitter and Instagram...

me FR

i hate when people call marcille a girlfailure btw like SHE ISNT. and shes not a ”girlboss” either. this is a neurotic and Permanently On The Edge of a Breakdown overachiever late 20s virgin just out of her phd program with permanently shaky hands from an addiction to overly sugary coffee and a deep desire to be crushed to death under falins giant jugs no matter the cost. the only thing shes ever ”failed” at is going to theraphy

Making homestuck content and frustrated trying to find the right colours? Tired of trying to select the hexcode displayed in the smallest font possible? Or going diffrent places to find codes for character text colours, aspect colours and blood colours? Frustrated about how there are at least 2 varients for everything I just listed, both from other homestuck media and within the comic itself?

Homestuck Hex Codes (hs-hexes) is a tool for easily finding and copying any significant colour found in homestuck. Every colour is sorted into expandable groups, and each colour can be quickly copied to your clipboard in one click, so no more fiddling with tiny text surrounded by giant whitespace. Colour groups include:

Homestuck Kids Text, Homestuck Kids NPCs, Homestuck Trolls Text, Homestuck Trolls Alt Text, Cherubs + The Felt, Epilogues & HS^2, Homestuck Shirt Symbols, Aspects (From Sprites), Aspects (From the Extended Zodiac), Blood (From the Extended Zodiac), Blood (From Hiveswap), Moons (From the Extended Zodiac), Troll Anatomy, Troll Romance, Sburb Versions, Trickster Mode Text Animation, Strife deck, Sylladex Modi (Main), Sylladex Modi (Silly)

With more added on request! Have fun!
