Oh… now this is interesting!
Children of Time by Adrian Tchaikovsky.
Everyone seemed to hype it up as the best sci fi ever so it might just have been the hype that did it.
I thought it was a decent book but nothing really special. It just wasn’t all that interesting to me. It didn’t make me want to read the sequels.
I know I’ve ended up more of a lurker lately. That’s not due to any particular ill feelings about beehaw or lemmy at large though. I think I just entered a bit more passive, consuming phase. Maybe falling back a bit to the old reddit habits? Mostly browsing for interesting new things.
Anyway.
This is probably due to me discovering Beehaw and Lemmy at the same time, but for me they’re probably a lot more connected than I’m guessing they are for you old timers.
For me it’s like… the cozy corner of Lemmy you know? My home base while venturing out to other instances’ communities. I’m definitely most likely to actually post or comment around here just because I like it here (though not exclusively however).
So… now this place will most likely go dark in a while. What then?
This won’t and can’t be my home base by then and that’s making me feel like… should I start looking for a new home already?
Anything I produce with this account will either go go away or at least be locked down. Nor sure what happens to the federated copies of comments and posts on other communities when an instance shuts down.
So… I don’t know. It’s starting to feel a bit like this account is nearing its end of life which makes it feel a bit odd to be actively using it.
A bit like chalk on the sidewalk while watching rain clouds come rolling in.
I… don’t know what my point is really.
I guess it feels a bit like it’s time to start cultivating a new account, mirror my subscriptions and start using that instead, even for posting here. I don’t know.
Anyone else feel something similar?
I don’t really know. Too many for me to bother counting them but probably in the high hundreds. In our living room we’ve got four or five meters worth of book shelves that are completely filled up and the overflow has started piling up in other rooms.
So at least a bunch :)
