I'd like to know a good tool for making gifs, GIMP, already has bad UX, and is limiting on gif fps, Ezgif, is a website, and is really limiting, and… that's all I know.Bonus points for webp, apng, jxl support!


If you're just recording your screen, ShareX is the way to go. You can screen record region, fullscreen, and encode as mp4 or GIF.

Otherwise, Photoshop has a timeline feature but is obviously clunky.. Gif Movie Gear is a program intended for GIFs. Was used a lot back in the day around the 2000s ish and even was recommended by MSFT to icon creators and the sort, but it is a paid software... Not much choice to be honest in the GIFsphere, very outdated format and ezgif is a godsend of the website that does all the things you really need. if ezgif cant do it, GIF is probably not the right format.......

Your website looks very well designed!
But I personally think your console collection is the most impressive thing! It's probably really fun to have so many :) I'm just really impressed by people who keep the good old devices up and running. I don't think generally there is that many people who appreciate stuff like this, but hey this forum is exactly for this type of guys so welcome :wavegreen:

P. S. Btw I myself have only just registered a week ago as well and for me this is my first forum experience :cheers:

plus i doubt the state id laws are gonna affect the indie web. since they're mostly forcing social media and app stores to comply with the laws


I wouldn't be so sure about that. Maybe things are a little bit different in Australia (where the OP is from), but I've heard that the UK, which is imposing similar restrictions, is unfortunately cracking down on some indie websites as well like Spacehey. Not sure if other indie websites have been affected as well, but I do know that Spacehey has gotten caught up in their crackdown as of July of this year.

Liquid Glass definitely feels like a step in the right direction and i was very excited when it was revealed but it does have a way to go for sure. i'm very glad flat design is finally starting to die off though

I bought my father a Chromebook because it's a locked down thing that can basically only browse the web, and it's the device I've had to provide the least amount of tech support for so far. I hope someday some solid alternatives pop up, since I don't really trust Google to keep providing support and to not bloat it up.

i LOVE a good ol' fashioned ipod.

i have a U2 edition gen 4 photo (seen in the picture) & a 6th gen nano. i use them for long car rides / times when cell is down and i cant use my phone lol. if you ever wanna do something fun and intuitive (and have some cash on hand..) i really recommend getting one and rockboxing it. its so much fun!! :yellow_bouncey:

i think it's absurd.. it's going to completely kill off roblox if this happens. not just because players will be segregated by age, but because this also extends to team create (source)

also i just think "we're going to force players of all ages to send us video selfies of themselves that we will definitely delete" is really the worst possible option here. like.. okay, man. i guess we're having nine year olds take selfies for roblox staff now. this certainly won't backfire

Yes I knew that, it's crazy how much TouHou had influence on early internet memes.

TF2, anime, and Touhou, the structural supports that hold up much of internet culture (or at least did at one point)

I've always been curious as to where or who this picture was taken from. This picture was used during the Pre-Reset era of Windows Longhorn. One reddit post points to Tom Bean but I checked all photos by him and didn't find anything. I really like the picture as someone that sees these types of fields often. If anyone can help me it'd be very appreciated!

Wed Dec 03, 2025 11:32 pm Re: is firefox that good Wed Dec 03, 2025 11:32 pm Re: is firefox that good
Firefox is good. It's more lightweight than Chrome and unlike modern Chrome, has full adblock support.
You can also install Geckium to make it or other browsers based on it look like older versions of chrome.
There's also tab containers which are useful if you wanna separate site cookies or stay logged into 2 different accounts at the same time.
However Firefox's recently started integrating "AI" into the browser, among other things.
So I use Librewolf as my primary browser. But since DRM is diabled & "resist fingerprinting" enabled by default in Librewolf, I still use Firefox for certain things. If the AI stuff is a deal breaker for you, I'd recommend looking into Waterfox. Waterfox is based on Firefox ESR & I don't think as many websites break in it as Librewolf.
I'd also like to add that it's probably better to use another browser for google websites or even a separate app if you care about speed & are gonna use Firefox or a browser based on it as your primary. There's chromium browsers that are more privacy-respecting than Chrome like Ungoogled Chromium or Brave. I personally just watch youtube, using the program Freetube, since it has sponsorship block, adblock, and saves your subscriptions/history/playlists locally on your device.
