Make me an offer I can't refuse.
It's not realistic to develop a non-homogeneous culture here?
Or am I misunderstanding your statement?
Lol, and you think I've made an ass of myself? Ok then.
If you're going to insist on being a low information fool, you're going to have to pay me for future interactions.
In some respects yes. In others, it's worse.
I hope it will develop in a positive direction.
It's not decentralized yet...
But it could be...
I didn't defend anyone.
Read the thread again.
I'd like Twetch to be a place where I'm happy spending my time (and money) and my post has gotten at least a few people's attention on what is necessary to make that happen.
If it happens for me, it'll happen for others.
Simple as that.
The thing is, it was never about that account. It was about the culture.
And I have certainly made my point on that front.
If low information people want to get wrapped up in the account, more power to them. Just make sure to include me so I make money.
@94 I can't reply to your posts without tripping the overzealous troll toll by the one who branched my Twetch.
I refuse to benefit him for his superficiality and impatience.
The short of it is, it aged just fine...
I think the real solution to this is a complete rethink on these filters... Qualitative, not quantitative or manually defined.
But I don't have enough of that model worked out for this case to say I really have it, if that makes sense.
Again, the problem is that the culture has homogenized into something that is extremely noisy to folks like me.
It's low information drivel, and it is crowding out signal.
It's not an easy problem to solve, mind you... But there's no progress at all.
It gets harder the longer it goes on like this.
I've been talking about this from early on, though most wouldn't recognize it as such...
People don't often see the value in what I'm saying. And, it takes me a long time to find the way to say it for them.
I don't believe that would help...
Essentially, that's just another filter.
But if you don't have something to filter between, it doesn't matter what filters you have.
They need to actually foster the development of additional cultural elements.
It doesn't have to be this way.
The problem is that there's a dominating culture here that homogenizes the platform's culture.
There needs to be stronger sub-cultures.
Then, a heterogeneous culture can form.
For me, part of the enjoyment of it is the process of constrained creativity.
I think I'd prefer creating the art by hand, though I have some thoughts on new methods that would be really cool to try...
No. Do you have an example?
No. Just Photoshop.
Although, I have some thoughts on how one might use Blender's new geometry nodes to do something in the style of pixel art... Gotta just sit down and spend the time to play with it.
It would be game changing if it could work...
Working on something as a slow burn. Large project. It will take time.
Education, exploration, and sharing things that I find obvious but are apparently not.
Just Twitter. I use that for purposes I wouldn't call personal though.
