It was reported that #Threads is developing a groups feature on their platform, IIRC they're going to call it "Looms". Once it's up, let's create two groups called "Weavers" and "Fraternity". ^_~
I've been reading a lot of webtoons for the past months, and it was only recently that I bothered to read the credits section.
Many of those I've read and been reading so far were an adaptation of novels.
Since I'm reading from #Naver Webtoon, most came from Naver's #Yonder and #Wattpad platforms. A rare few from #Amazon.
It's actually cool. I mean, if your novel serial fiction is adapted into a webtoon, you get additional exposure and fans. I don't know the conversion rate, but I've seen comments where a webtoon fan started to read the novel because they can't wait for new #webtoon episodes/releases.
Another cool thing, I noticed the difference between a webtoon and a novel (or webtoon and serial fiction), webtoon writers understand well what works for the webtoon format, and know which part to change, to exclude, and to include as-is. The best thing, I haven't seen a webtoon reader complain about it. As compared to adaptations into a live-action show, there are always complaints how it's 'not true to original'.
I guess satisfaction with the adaptation? Honestly, there are cases where I like the webtoon adaptation more than the novel (even though I like to read novels).
Webtoons have a different feel, I guess?
If only the webtoon categories expands beyond the genres: romance, dungeons, towers, isekai, gaming, portals, regression, rebirth, and combinations of those. ^_^;;
It would be cool to see StarGate or StarTrek in webtoon format. Or, a side-story set in Lord of the Rings told in webtoon format. Or, some zombie and crime.
Anyway. Just a random thought, appreciation, and wishful thinking.
@cm0002 Wow. That's including the books they archived? Or, just the websites?
O_O I didn't hear about the user data issue.
Hmmโฆ I wonder how long it has been going on. It took a couple of weeks before I got a reply from them that an admin unintentionally deleted my account, now that you mentioned it, my account probably got squeezed between spam accounts or something. (I was just advised to create a new account, and sadly only lists can be restored. T_T )
@Varyk Yep, it's challenging and sad. Even Wikipedia use it as a resource and backup of sources.
And there are also those using it to archive copyright infringement, or as a record of a work's license at the time (specially since some loves to change the license when they originally released it in Creative Commons or the Public Domain).
It's crazy though that there was no service as close to the features archive.org has. The only one I'm aware of available publicly is archive.ph / archive.md but they don't offer the archiving of links found, and it's pretty much very static only (TiddlyWiki sites don't work correctly).
There's something new I realized after watching #Oblivion (2013) again: it doesn't matter how many times Jack dies, there are thousands of Jack clones on Earth. ^_^;;
I think it was last week when a headline passed by about another Chromium-based browser integrating AI and all that. That was it. Neve saw it again. No one talked about it. No reshared.
Firefox? They got a lot of complaints, feedback, and angered so many.
My take: There are a lot of people who cares about Firefox. While most, if not all, Chromium-based browsers, their users don't care as long as they can browse.
It's like back in the #IE6 era. No one cared as long as their IE6-only website and tools works. Forget about security, privacy, the latest tech.
@arnelson Ahhh! That's great! I like the D&D alignment system, it's simple and easy to understand. At least a good starting point for character development.
I'm so drained, I only was able to do a few hours on a project. I was supposed to run earlier today but it rained. I guess back to #reading , my other recovery method.
@Natanox I'm not sure how, I haven't seen such a setting in Developers either.
So far, the only setting I've seen related to it is in CSS, which is very new. (If I remember correctly when I accidentally passed by it, only Firefox supports it. (I can't even remember what CSS property it was.))
