I’ve noticed as a lot of accounts have gone dormant that were once huge in the text based platforms. Have people been leaving mastodon? Where have those users gone to if anywhere?

Ah, yes, the dream of every developer: yet another "groundbreaking" platform that combines the excitement of #SQL with the thrill of YAML! 🤯 Because nothing screams "innovation" like removing the fun of drag-and-drop UIs for the pure joy of text-based tedium. 🎉

#One of #TheNiceThings about a #FreeForm #TextBased #Environment is that it makes #StoryTelling very #Easy...

As a #ManOfTheFourthAge; I can #SimplyPop to #MinasTirith and #Serve #RobotKingElessar a #Slice of my #LoreBreakingBananaBread...

I haven't the heart to tell #RobotKingElessar that the #LoreBreakingBananaBread contains materials not expressly specified in #TheSilmarillion... I don't think he'll mind that much, though because he's mostly a #Robot...

We can eat #LoreBreakingBananaBread from #ThePier while overlooking the fields of devastation in #Pelennor... #TheFourthAge; what a time to be alive...?!

Does anyone play Text-based MUDs?

I tried to get into them a few years ago. I tried one or two but didn't hang in them for any real amount of time. They just seemed empty and like an abandoned part of the internet.

The site that ranks MUDs looks old as heck; realised some of the links are broken. There are hundreds tho.

This is apparently the most popular MUD: https://www.aardwolf.com/

A 2021 Journey from Oregon Trail to A.I. Dungeon

[...]

Every week in 2021, I'll be posting an in-depth look at one text-based computer game from each year between 1971 and 2021, starting next week with The Oregon Trail. For each game, we’ll take a meaty deep dive into what it was like to play in the context of its original release (on a chattering #teletype, over a dial-up modem in a prototype web #browser, on a brand-new iPad) and how its ideas influenced players and the next generation of makers. When warranted, we’ll dig into old #archives or source code to tease out how each game worked, why it was built the way it was, and what it did that was new, interesting, or successful."

Anyone know if there's a #terminal / #textBased version of something like #Minecraft / #Minetest. A bit of a mix between a #MUD and a #sandboxGame where you use text commands to not just traverse an open world, but also to mine resources and craft tools and other objects?

For some reason I ended up with elinks as my fav txt-browser. Don't know if the same problems occur there.

With a server Browsh rules the modern world. Try ssh'ing into brow.sh for a test ride!
