Portugal, so we’d go with Moonspell!

OTOH, if you build a playlist manager for playlists everyone can add to, you make sure nothing anyone adds will break it…

Is federated authentication being considered for the future? The federated model of the fediverse is great, but it runs into problems when instances “die”, you want to access different servers as they federate with different things, etc. leading to the need of having multiple accounts. If there were a decentralized network of auth servers, could use the same credentials everywhere.

99% Invisible - An excellent design/architecture podcast

20k Hz (“twenty thousand hertz”) - great show about the audio that pervades our daily lives, from notification sounds to movie special effects, passing through game sounds, sound history,etc.

Imaginary Worlds - in their own words, “ a podcast about science fiction, fantasy and other genres of speculative fiction”.

All three are done by professionals in their respective fields, exceedingly well researched, and with superb production values.

This. Inform was the language/platform developed back in the day to author/interpret Z-code, the basis for Infocom’s text adventures. It went beyond just that in more recent versions, but it is designed from the ground up for text adventure creation.

You, you can add that list. Motherfuckers will let you type a password as long as you wish, only to internally truncate it. Was driving me crazy until I tried to log in on the mobile app, where it does prevent you to type more characters…

Ive been wondering about this myself…

Not even that. I’m getting serious Usenet vibes (from the early 90s, not the thing it has since devolved into). Even the decentralized paradigm with independent servers syncing with each other is conceptually similar (although I’d bet NNTP was a quite different protocol than what we’re using now).

Plus, if this becomes the “bot wild west” at such an early stage, the credibility hit will be a serious hindrance to future growth…
