He/him. This is one of my alter egos in the retro world. Read about this instance on front page. My goal is to be able to post here from a 286* running DOS. Might be a while..

It's fun to run servers on old, slow computers. Posts that showed up on my big fat server a couple hours ago are only showing up now, simply because it's too busy to receive all relevant notifications at once. Other instances seem to be backing off for a while, and try again at random intervals so the load on this box remains low. Pretty cool, assuming that's actually how it works!

Only when a post is boosted or replied to do I run the risk of my hot-babe CPU monitor turning nsfw. So better keep it boring, I guess.
