@talon btw from what I recall the web audio api is pretty close to what's available in Open AL. Have you checked the various language bindings there?

@talon Yeah my choice for using node was to make it easier to reuse as many libraries as possible and to reduce the burdon on getting c++ dependencies to build cross platform. TTS and STT is one of those things that's hard to get working on Linux even with all the stuff in Chromiums codebase :x

Would love to experience more audio-first games though.

@talon I started doing some of this in my "webrun" project a few years back. I'm still very much into it. See also, exokit but that was focused more on 3d graphics without the browser renderer.

@ItsMorgan@octodon.social off topic but I initially read it as cat-holics. World would be nicer if everyone was one of those 🥰🥰

@aeva Yeah very similar experience on my end. I think not being super vocal or being an obvious "target" for outrage helps a lot too? I think a lot of PoC and trans folks for example get extra harassment just for existing within view of folks that want to get out of their way to hate them.

I think who people on your instance follow/are followed by can also have a huge effect so large instances like .social increase the opportunities for beef.

@aeva @evan IMO instance blocking makes it so much easier since jerks often congregate. Just blocking the top 10 or 100 most blocked instances can get you very far while leaving a lot of room for nuance.
