    I think how open ended it is matters, as well as how quickly you can look at an image vs read a submission. Even on r/writingprompts, I always read a few and then moved on, while I could keep going on and on on PSBattles, because each image was just a glimpse and what they did with it was so different (at least it felt like compared to how writing prompts usually went). And personally, I agree about pivoting to a generic name.









  • I think decades of minimalist, ‘intuitive’ interfaces that abstract what’s going on in the background have made us too lazy to go beyond the bare minimum to switch platforms in general.

    A common criticism I saw of the fediverse was the fact that you have to decide on an instance. As if any significant part of your life doesn’t require a certain amount of research before making a decision. We all just buy the car that the dealership tells us to buy, of course.
