    I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone in real life. There are parts that are just way too jarring.

    Ugh, this. And I hate that it’s like that.

    Like, I used to have my instance open to whoever to sign up. My guiding principle was to have a place that wasn’t overrun with [parts that are just way too jarring]. Holy shit was that an impossible goal to do alone so I shuttered it up and now it’s just a private instance / testbed for Tesseract.

    My friends knew I was active on Reddit, and that was fine. But I wouldn’t tell them I spend any amount of time here because what they would see going to almost any random instance will probably definitely not look good on me by association despite that I’m nowhere near that.

    So if anyone shares this desire, I am open to un-mothballing my instance, rebranding, and taking on new admins and re-opening to users who also want a place like that.
