I just started trying to post there again, seems like a lot less conversation there and more broadcasting. I’ve commented multiple times and nobody ever replies…
@BallShapedMan it depends on if your comment is worthy of a reply or if it’s more of a statement. In the latter case, they’ll probably just favorite or boost instead of saying something useless like “okay cool”. Also, up until recently, mastodon required hashtags for search so most instances are still on that system. So for people to find your posts you need to litter them with hashtags, which I see you got the hang of.
Another thing, you don’t have anything in your bio and no profile pic. Fleshing out your bio will help people know that you’re not a bot and have similar interests as them.
@BallShapedMan haha…is it that obvious? I used a screenshot of G-Man from Alyx with /describe and one of the prompts made this…🤣
That’s awesome LMAO!
I think only big fans of the series would pick up on it. I love it and want to see more done like this!
@BallShapedMan btw, I actually boosted some of your own art on Mastodon😉😝small Fedi world.
Wow, it is, thank you!

Thank you, I’ll give that a go!
I’m a little old too be learning new things they say, but I’m trying!
Nah, I also thought ‘That’s the G-Man’ right away. Those who have played HL intensely will never forget that face.
Fair point!!
@BallShapedMan thanks so much!🙏
