Art fans!

Do you want to discover interesting art and craft accounts on here?

Then I highly recommend following the Curator:

➡️ @Curator

They share all the best arts and crafts stuff they've discovered on Mastodon and the Fediverse. You can find lots of interesting accounts to follow from the Curator's shares.

(They also maintain the excellent art-themed mastodon.art server, but the artists shared are from any server.)

@ozoned @slopesgameroom

Yeah, this does seem to be what happened last time. If I recall correctly, they solved it last time by rebooting the peertube server.

Little announcement: going to be moving FediFollows to another server some time next week.

Mastodon.online is veeery slow, many messages taking 16 hours to arrive. Also really unclear if my posts are reaching anyone at all.

So, it's a nice excuse to move to a smaller server, which is a good idea anyway 👍

Until transfer happens, I'm going to keep this account quiet to make the transfer as simple as possible.

Anyone already following me will have their follows transferred automatically.

p.s. Don't worry about links becoming outdated, old account links will all redirect to the new account.

Can I just give a shoutout to one of the original programmers at Lucasfilm Games (aka LucasArts) who created so many wonderful games?

➡️ @DavidBFox

David Fox worked on all kinds of famous graphic adventures like "Maniac Mansion", "Zak McKraken", "Indiana Jones" and returned to the genre recently with Ron Gilbert on "Thimbleweed Park" and "Return To Monkey Island".
