    It was already shit before the API exodus in June 2023 thus killing alienblue and other loved clients…

    Was an OG user from inception. Haven’t been back since. Any time I want or need to view certain things (seldom) RedLib instances work well. You can always set up an rss feed from one and get chronological content if you wanted.

    https://redlib.catsarch.com/ is one of many that has been stable for awhile.

      redlib (while permabanned) is a bit like being kicked out of the bar and staring back in through the window. You can look, sure, but a bar is about interacting and getting drunk. You are doing neither.

        That’s not the point. I nuked my would be 20+ year old account. I don’t care about interacting (with bots and lots of kids).

          Given how the site has legitimately gotten worse since I was kicked off it back in May, I’m actually kind of glad I got off the ship before it went to pot. Besides, I don’t want to just make another account. I want MY account. It’s a matter of principle even if I never go back.
