A clean look that works well on desktop and mobile: https://bento.me/8bit My experience of the fediverse so far has been a mix of shit-posting and genuinely really cool stuff. I wonder if this is what people mean when they say "I miss the old Twitter". I was far too young to witness Twitter before it became just… Finally got the weblog set up (https://blog.8bit.lol), including a self-hosted instance of https://giscus.app, pretty happy with how it turned out!
