Spanish guy, who likes open source software and has just discovered the fediverse (as of 28th of April, 2022). I like video games, and indie and retro music. I’m a student. I’m officially diagnosed with ADHD and ASD since January, 2023.

  • Doom 2 is my most favourite game, being Doom Eternal my second most favourite one. I’ve never played Doom 3, I’ve barely touched Doom 2016, and Doom is meh without the super shotgun or the pain elementals.

    Gzdoom is the source port I use to play Doom games. It has lots of configurations, you can use tons of mods, and freelook & no autoaim are a delight.

    By the way, I upload regularly Doom 2 videos on my HardLimit (Peertube) channel.








  • When an online forum, social network, blog, etc. has a lot of users, it’s easier that bad elements are present inside those communities. That’s something that not only happens online, but in general. Compare a tiny village with 1.000 inhabitants, to a big city with 7.000.000 inhabitants. Where do you think there are more murderers, robbers, kidnappers…?

    But defederation must not be the most useful resource to avoid those bad elements. You can’t place a dome above that big city with 7.000.000 inhabitants to avoid those murderers from going to other places and starting murdering. Good laws and police officers can do really good to minimize the damage. In the same way, good admins and moderators can really improve how nice a server is.

    It’s true that when another server has bad policies or bad admins, we can’t do their job from here, because that’s not only our responsibility. If we do the hard work while they do nothing, it’s obvious that defederation can be a good tool, until situation improves over there. But that’s one thing, and another thing is complete and absolute defederation. Nobody deserves that, and, in the end, everything will be detrimental.

    As time passes, people will realize that things in the fediverse are completely different to things on Twitter, Reddit, Facebook, Instagram… and they’ll adapt their bad behaviour, influenced by those trash places, to a more healthy one.






  • I finally discovered why my taste is messed up since I’m taking my ADHD medication. It turns out it’s a side effect that doesn’t disappear, and apparently I can’t do anything about it.

    Besides that, I’ve been hyperfocused in this game called Dungeon Crawl Stone Soup. Trying to pass the main dungeon, but dying miserably because of things.

    And I’m watching two TV series, after several months without consuming any media, except for the news. One is “Red Dwarf”. The other is “Doctor Who”.
