I drew my profile pic and banner. The gameplay in the banner is from dragon quest 1 for game boy that I recorded myself.

it’s cohost launch anniversary week! you might remember that we celebrated our first birthday (as well as eggbug’s birthday) back in february, and might be confused why we have two birthdays. february was our private launch, but june 28, 2022 was our public-facing launch! those of you who joined on launch day have now been here for a year!

to celebrate, we have some Fun Surprises:

happy birthday cohost!!
reading this felt like reading a club penguin update post for me
maybe that’s because im on weed rn
thank yall for making this website, ive met many nice friends and people through here

I'm curious: so cohost does make an attempt to block asks from a given non-signed-in user? it just might not work?

But this all sounds delightful and I'm excited for it to roll out. :)

I would hope in that situation they at least do what Tumblr does - block that specific IP address from sending that specific user asks (or, if it's bad enough, block that IP from the site entirely). Of course, that's easily circumvented by VPNs and proxies, but that's the unsolvable problem for a truly anonymous internet.

I think it says it "might not work" because if you don't only allow anon asks from logged-in users, you can't tell whether the anon ask you just got was from somebody who's logged in or not. And because you can't tell, you have to be able to try and block them regardless, but if they weren't logged in, they can't be blocked

would it be correct to assume that asks cannot be answered privately? i believe this was a feature on tumblr between two logged in users, but don't know about other platforms referenced. i can see how it may skirt close to the DMs policy mentioned Monday tho

Hey, remember in the financial update it said the merch store makes almost nothing?

... Where is the link to the merch store?????? I just went looking for it and have no idea where it is and had to click on the link inside this post.

random suggestion: users that blocked you would have their comments hidden, but not their responses (at least not completely, a clickthrough seems reasonable)
as is, get blocked by someone remotely popular and comments go :crab:
