Oh the ping didn't come through for this posts! Love seeing the new stuff now on my desktop, great work. I'm going to implement the @3dmodeling icon immediately.

They behaved as if discussions of other Fedivese microblogs themselves were some sort of existential threat to the Fediverse.

The web keeps evolving, and honestly in the end usability and accessibility will be key. We're waiting for a project that can lower the bar for the 'common' user who wants to click a button and yell into the void. Probably Meta's intended audience. I expect that this future project will in turn become more of a containment zone than an actual place for discussion, but hey at least the folks who want more than Twitter/Reddit 2.0 will have an entry point to the rest of the fediverse without having to deal with the semantics of it.

Incidentally, where in kbin does it show what type of service other users are using?

Ah, I meant the hostname, not the specific type/kind of instance. Still, to at least be able to differentiate on source rather than claiming everything as its own content, is something I do appreciate. It would either teach me to ignore or value certain contributions more or less, given their origins - i.e. an instance ran by propaganda machines or big business.

Fair points! Glad to have a choice, at least. Even though some people like to think otherwise and astroturf a lot.

Not to forget, mentioning @fearout for his great suggestions and critical eye!

@fearout
was replying from mobile - so I'd like to add here... Great work on the texturing! The materials really look like their real life counterparts, perhaps even a bit more edible than supposed to. Which is a good thing.

@fearout
These look great! Just the right amount of detail.
I have created @3dmodeling and @zbrush here, so if you’re interested in sharing these there too I’d personally love that!

I knew I made a mistake somewhere 😂 I’ll get to it - I’ve been focused on #artemisapp the past weeks, so slowly catching up on my magazines!

I'll repeat myself here - these renders just look so tasty and tangible. Really great job on the texture details, and I love your explanations for your design choices.

We have a new icon! Thank you for this tasty render, really nice job on the colors.
Gonna have to agree on the ortho view... It's a stylistic choice but realism matters, too.

Absolutely amazing, love your contribution here!

Nice one! Was this done in Aseprite?

Us vs. them is as bad as ever. Just use emoji if you want, but don’t overuse them? Live and let live I say.

Might not be your cup of tea, but I feel like there’s overlap with puzzle games: roguelike deckbuilding games. I got hooked on Slay the Spire on PC a few years ago, and they had it on Playstation Plus recently so I’m hooked again. In similar genre I can recommend Monster Train. They’re mostly pick up and play, there’s no timer counting down… and they’re often on sale.

This whole 'we need a name and a mascot' deal has big 'Stop trying to make Fetch happen' vibes.
