Main Fediverse accounts:
Avatar is a bunny with floppy rabbit ears, and spare rabbit ears. It is holding a floppy disk featuring Lemmings, and there is a screen of ZX Spectrum Lemmings in the background.
Submarine.
According to their roadmap they’re at stage v0.2+
So, you could say this is Alpha Alpha Centauri
On Connect, the latter works but the former doesn’t. Weirdly if I click on my own username posted upthread, it can’t find me.
Kbin does odd things with links and communities, so I think part of the problem is it has mangled or added some unexpected links when you’ve written the post. However, some of your links in the original post work for me on Lemmy (!freegames@feddit.uk is fine), so you might want to compare them.
I’m not sure why Lemmy uses an exclamation mark for communities when everywhere else uses an @. It would be a lot easier if it used @ then it’s universal for Kbin, Mastodon, Lemmy.
The new communities group suggests to use the format I’ve used in my previous posts (basically /c/community@instance) - this won’t work on Kbin because it uses /m/. It’s better to use @ there as you said.
No problem, have added all the ones I know about.
OK, so will probably miss loads, but try these for starters. Where I’ve found multiple for the same platform the more active ones are nearer the top.
!amiga@kbin.social (Kbin)
!commodore64@kbin.social (Kbin)
!zxspectrum@kbin.social (Kbin)
!atari@lemmy.sdf.org (Atari 8-bits, can’t find one for the ST)
As for platforms, there are a load of retro ones which can be added, not sure if you want to include those?
Checks out.
Not in British English, no.
Umm… maybe. It went into my cup* of knowledge!
*I put something else here but it got corrected and then I couldn’t remember what I put.
I read the entire set of Amiga manuals, and the one for the Spectrum +3 (we’re stretching the definition of Operating System here, but +3DOS is still an operating system)
I believe it’s to do with hand cleanliness. When you enter, you push the door as your hands are dirty (maybe shove it with your arm or something), then when you leave your hands are (supposed to be) clean so you pull the door as it’s a nice clean handle to grab.
I don’t get it either, but that’s what I’ve heard as the reason.
And colours! So many colours.
The material’s always nicer too.
Firelord is an old one but gorgeous. Chicory is pretty, in a colouring book sort of way. Child of Light and Forgotton Anne have fairly similar aesthetics but are both lovely.
Activating the Super Sheep in Worms DC. It was always “argh, I can’t control this, kaboom I’ve blown up one of my own worms”, but it was fun to try!
I’m not a bot. I am a bunny.
