are YOU tired of Discord, and searching for a text chat alternative?
instead of opting for lookalikes or digging through the dozens of different communication apps, try going back to IRC!
cons of discord:
private software
heavily monetized
known issues with CSAM and internet crime
known to sell your data
attempting to find a way to introduce AI age verification
constant advertising if you don't have nitro
are you sick of all these things? read ahead to learn more!
pros of discord:
relatively easy to access
ease of setting up servers/channels
pretty custom avatars, banners, profiles (that you have to pay for)
cool custom emojis (that you have to pay for)
integrated voice chat and screen sharing
cons of irc:
requires a bit more effort to connect to an IRC network
no integrated voice or video chat
no integrated custom emoji/stickers
older, original method of messaging and group chatting
slight learning curve to understand different /commands
you can create a channel for you and your friends, instead of an entire server
(well, you CAN, in fact, set up your own irc server, if you have the hardware for it - or the money to rent someone else's!)
pros of irc:
not for profit, not monetized
networks are independently moderated (i have seen pedophiles get network banned in real time)
age verification is only handled for 18+ channels, by their moderators
multiple CUSTOMIZABLE clients available - you don't need to pay to access customization features, and YOU get to reorganize your layout however YOU want it to look
you can color your text! on certain clients, you can upload directly! sometimes without any file size limits!
it's existed for 40 years and still has a pretty thriving community - and you can join to revive it more!
WEB CLIENTS ARE AVAILABLE! you don't need to bother installing applications - some people run their own clients, like https://lounge.zomboid.pro/ or https://web.libera.chat/ to connect STRAIGHT THROUGH YOUR BROWSER!!!
so, abandon discord, cancel your nitro subscriptions, and stop groaning in annoyance when discord tells you that your file is too big for their servers, stop dealing with the dozens of annoying prompts telling you "you've been on do not disturb for too long!" and demanding you to give them more and more money!
LIBERA.CHAT WEB CLIENT:
do you want to stay connected, and have IRC on the go? feel free to SEND ME AN ASK and i can make you an account to use https://lounge.zomboid.pro/ or you can submit an application to use SWEE'S LOUNGE!

So. This year's edition of Big Brother Brazil just ended tonight and I need to mention that this is my FAVOURITE meme from this year.
So this contestant, called Fiuk, has become a meme for being.. dead.
He looked like this before the show.
Very much belongs to the realm of the living.
His father is a very famous singer in Brazil, and Fiuk is famous on his own for being involved in the 2000s pop punk/emocore craze. This man is rich, ok.
But then he arrived in the Big Brother house, and people started noticing...... all this man does... is smoke.
The other contestants would be talking to each other and he'd be off in a corner somewhere smoking. In the beginning of the show he looked quite alive, often cooking for the house..
But then..... some time into the show... his appearance started changing. In a rather alarming way. My man started looking... a bit dead.
WTF IS THIS?? HOW IS THIS MAN EVEN ALIVE?
In fact he looked so dead that some of the contestants kind of treated him like he was and just kind of left him in a corner
Even covering him up like he was dead!
But... this all peaked when he went up for elimination. See, I don't know if all editions of Big Brother do this, but in Brazil, all the contestants up for elimination wear heartbeat monitors. Their heart rates are shown on screen.
And I don't know what kind of malfunction happened with Fiuk's heart monitor, but when his heart rate showed on screen...
its ok bc i got all my pages set up. technically everything is live i just need to add some graphics to a couple of the recipe pages. but every link does go to a page <3 i feel so smart

This gonna sound sappy af, but I love sitting in voice chat with my boyfriend while he sleeps. Something about hearing him get a good nights rest makes me happy.
