i came up with the idea of a no meta may challenge super last minute and i’ve been enjoying a migraine all day, so i’m taking a break. not a great time for a break when the first day of the challenge ends today but it’s probably fine

i know it’s not great and not everyone will agree with my choices; at the end of the day i think we can all at least agree that the alternatives are still an improvement over staying with meta

thinking i might want to increase the font size on the challenges

if you think it’s a good idea, feel free to edit, share, make your own, idc, fucc the zucc

An orange themed image discussing the “No Meta May Challenge”. It reads, “ Tired of corporate spyware and feeds littered with ads? Ready for something better and more exciting??? Then it sounds like you may be ready to join the No Meta May Challenge! Week One: 🚫 Threads, ✅ Wafrn May 1st - May 8th • interact with posts from other Fediverse sites like Mastodon, Misskey, and more! • can interact with posts from Bluesky (optional!) • charming, janky, CSS crimes • will run doom if you ask it Week Two : 🚫 WhatsApp and Facebook Messenger, ✅ Signal May 9th - May 16th • messages actually between you and whoever you're messaging, rather than between you, whoever you're messaging, and zucc Week Three: 🚫 Instagram, ✅ Pixelfed and Loops May 17th - May 23rd • say goodbye to ads! you don't even need an ad-blocker • layouts of both sites are familiar • apps already available Week Four (FINAL BOSS): 🚫Facebook, ✅ Fedibook May 24th - May 30th • still relatively new, but just in time for #NoMetaMay • familiar layout compared to friendica May 31st: Congratulations!

I apologize if my comment came across as overly critical or unhelpful. All I meant by it is that to my eyes, the brightness of the orange with the white border around the text is a harsh combo. It would be more comfortable with a darker background that contasts more with the white.

See, you did more research than me, so maybe I'm totally wrong.

It's a good job, I 100% support the graphic and idea behind it and I learned about a couple new services too. Don't let any of us get you down. You're DOING something and you should feel good about that.
