UGH as someone in the market for a CRT rn I very much feel that sdlkfhsdflkh also that is good to know!! I have been toying with the idea of getting an old digital camera bcuz I'd prefer using it to my phone so hmm... also howdy!! happy to see you here on bsky!! :D

thank you!! i just checked out your site too and it is ALSO very cool--I love that kind of wacky pomo type vibe your art has going on, very very cool!!

like even just having physical files on your PC vs letting streaming feed you is a big difference too.. I recently decided I would drop spotify in favor of downloading mp3s of all my music and using winamp like the old days, & it does feel like a diff, more meaningful relationship w the stuff I like

AWW I can imagine that does sound very awesome TT yeah tbh ever since I started my physical retro game collection i really do feel the value of like... owning the things you love LOL it feels more personal and less like blind consumption

such a pleasant user experience. and the ease of use of the software... idk that does mean something I think LOL

oh i fully agree and also i feel like stamped out bcuz it came out a lil too late... like by the time the zune came out apple culture was already in full swing and it just couldn't compete anymore sdlfkhsfd but man like for me what always stuck out was like... the UI/UX design. it was genuinely-

oh valid and cool hehe tbh I never had an ipoad as a kid, we were too poor, I only had like... walmart generic mp3 players and the zune which was the Nicest one I had LOL I reallllly loved my zune though like the entire experience of using it, I want another one TT

when it's old, fragile, depriciating tech that is no longer being made sldkfhsfd idk, maybe I'm just salty that I can't find a pink zune anywhere for a decent price anymore LOL

i don't wanna discourage anyone from investing in tech or any type of collection they're genuinely interested in pursuing but it does seem in the modern tiktok era that things become "trendy" and then become trash once the trend's over. which is one thing if it's mass-produced modern crap, less so-

like a lot of this tech is depreciating. they're not making it anymore. the "trend" is making the prices go up and for what? for this tech that is no longer being made anymore to end up in a dumpster after it's no longer trendy? idk sdflkhsdf

TY BELLE its a lil personal i guess but retro games mean a lot to me so it's fun to have a place to share why that is!!

Thank you!! TT I really had so much fun making it, I am glad to inspire you because I'm sure you'll have a lot of fun too!! If you need help with anything you can ask me and I can try to help!

This page is very resource intensive and worked on most PCs I tested it on except for 1--please let me know if many of you have issues loading it cuz I have a backup plan for it if it won't launch for a lot of ppl sdflkhsfd

also if anyone other moots have a personal site with a linkback banner let me know and we can link trade!!

I have tested the site on different monitor resolutions and it should work on all desktop PCs I think but it is definitely not mobile friendly sdlkhsdfhk in the future I'll try to make a mobile friendly alternative but not now

the look of horror on my roommate's face as she watched me attempt to do this mid conversation will never be wiped from my mind SDFLKHSFD
