I understand now. I figured it would be something like this, because zooming in on pixelated fonts makes them “blocky”, and overall unreadable.
We sure have come a long way to make things better for people with far from perfect vision. It also makes me appreciate the vision I have.
Which font do you use at the Terminal?
As a reminder, this is how zoomed in I normally am to read anything at all, Try doing this on the website 🤣

Fonts for me have to be crisp, sharp, without any crooked edges or boxed shapes. It has to be crisp and sharp at all zoom levels!

@bender That's just it, "pixelated" fonts are rubbish! 🤣 Imagine being blind for a moment, how well do you think you could read any of the text? 😅 I can't even read it zoomed in! LOL 😝

@prologic really? Are you talking about the website design, or the font itself? The font is a monospaced variant, relatively good looking for a pixel font.

@prologic and this is why I think “good day!” is the most accurate greeting. It refers to the 24 hours period of time, regardless of what hour it might be. 🤭

@prologic if you do anything about those two protocols, please consider implementing something for UUCP. 😏

@movq Right, not looking forward to disease-spreading mozzies and critters like that. We must become @stigatle's neighbors. :-)
My honey bread fell on the floor and would you believe which side was down? The clean, not the coated one. Witchcraft!
Right. But not aliens. They are demons exciting hatred and deceiving innocent people.

And a lot of other nasty stuff with it, bugs, spiders, you name it. Didn’t we migrate all this way up north to be free from such Ungeziefer? 😅

Suddenly, VLC crashes when I jump forward in videos. It's 100% reproducible. Reboot didn't fix it. Starting on the shell, I see:
Assertion @p->parent->stash_hwaccel failed at src/libavcodec/pthread_frame.c:649
Turns out, it's this: https://forum.mxlinux.org/viewtopic.php?t=81068 Before I even went online, I assumed that turning off hardware acceleration might help. And it does. Phew!

The voices in my head won't let me sleep, they say that alien brain slugs are taking over the minds of politicians.
Turns out, there are seven species in Germany (two of them being venomous), but in my wider area there seem to be just the two: https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liste_der_Schlangenarten_in_Deutschland Probably just even one, the common European adder is more to the south, just like I thought. But maybe with the climate getting hotter and hotter, they migrate north to me, too.
@movq That's a very good approach. I have the feeling that requirements engineering seems to be getting more and more a forgotten art these days.

@prologic There’s another thing to consider: I have a feeling that (some/most/many?) Gopher/Gemini users wouldn’t even *want* that. I’ve heard them say a couple of times: “If you follow me, just drop me an e-mail.” 🤔 I don’t know if this is a widespread opinion or not, but I do feel the need to first gather some feedback from them, before we start drafting a spec. 😅

@movq Yeah your original idea of precent encoding some information about the new follower is probably what we need to think about more. I _think_ it'll also work for Gopher/Gemini folk too right? So essentially new metadata key (_optional_) with some spec for encoding information about the new follower if either a) You don't implement the User-Agent part of the spec or extensions or b)You use a protocol that makes this impossible.
