Twitter’s removing “Twitter for X” labels? Here’s how it just made the platform worse.
Twitter for iPhone. Sounds like a social status and a nightmare for Android phone companies when accidentally tweeting from their iPhones. Well, that’s until Elon decided to remove it because he thought it was a waste of space and compute. But we feel removing it just makes the platform worse, especially in terms of spam,…
It’s time to turn Twitter into a Parler clone.
Parler is a Twitter clone. Yeah, it’s not as famous as Twitter in many parts of the world. But apparently, Parler has played an important rule on what happened during the #StormTheCapitol attack in 2021, where supporters of Donald Trump gather together to the Capitol because Joe Biden won the election. But soon, we will…
Can I become a Christian VTuber?
Hey Shift, I recently saw some Christian people becoming VTubers, and there’s some discussion over Reddit for the ethics of these. Since I’ve seen you and your friends are currently investing in VTubers, what are your stances about this? Answer Well, it’s okay to be a VTuber, but remember that: Because you are a child…

Remember HAM? 🥩
Oh, I almost forgot that we’ve published the first version of HAM a year ago! Happy anniversary! For those who are unaware of: HAM is our Jekyll theme for static wiki sites and just that. We are actually afraid that Halfmoon, the CSS framework we used to build HAM, are quite unmaintained for a few…
Once upon an Unix timestamp, there was a world where we are all robots…
Well that sounds to be a starting point for an amazing science fiction adventure, but no. It’s our new name for our Fediverse clan at https://bots.reinhart1010.id! We decided to shift the focus from “Bearers of the Shells” (which many people still don’t understand what that is) to make it more unique. Kudos for Astrid for…
Updates on how we do Twitter.
Haven’t read about the recent paid Verified subscription controversy? “Oh hey! Verified are now a public commodity. Everyone can be Verified by subscribing to our recently-changed $8/mo subscription. Freedom to all!” Well, that’s sounds fun, right? Until the infamous Nintendo of America fake account appears. With that blue checkmark. We have written two threads in…
WhatsApp Communities vs Telegram’s Group Topics

Both might look similar, and suspiciously, both are released very close to each other, with WhatsApp on November 3 and Telegram on November 5. Sure, WhatsApp have been teasing…
Let’s talk about Fediverse clans, shall we?
One of the most confusing aspects of the Fediverse is well, the fact that it’s decentralized. You don’t (and shouldn’t) have to open an account at a Fediverse website to interact with the site. And with the rise of Fediverse servers, or instances, pods etc., people may afraid of impostors using their same usernames between…
