Right. I'm a woman who as been gaming since I was about 7 years old. I have learned several strategies to make sure that I don't draw attention to that fact. It's always better if whoever I'm playing with assumes that I'm a dude.

Trillian! I paid for the multi-messenger functionality too!
IRC is not dead. Since rexxit began I have started really searching for programming/data science/tech communities. I have found more than I know what to do with and many have an IRC. I just installed Pidgin on one of my Linix machines. Ha! What a time to be alive.
Good to know!
It can also be ran as an appliance in a virtual machine like VirtualBox!
Yes!
I can post and comment here without getting yelled at or worthless, and off topic, replies. I hope they keeps the trolls to a minimum and encourage meaningful contributions.
I deleted RiF a couple of days ago. RiF is reddit to me. I have countless subs and bots blocked. Still, I was scrolling r/all and realized how repulsed I was by the content. It was just page after page of junk. I still have my account, but I haven't logged in for days.
I am mourning the time I have wasted.
Yes!
I miss the days when I could look in the comments for more information about a post and actually learn or discover something new. The comments are worthless at this point. There is no discussion to be had.
"The troll dance" is an excellent way to explain it. One of my last comments was about a cow that was laying it's head in a woman's lap. It was a nice comment about the cow (which was stated to be female). Out of no where some troll popped up and started the "dId YoU jUsT aSsUmE gEnDeR?!??" line of bait. I flat out said that I was not going to "debate" the gender of a bovine. The entire conversation was so utterly pointless. What has reddit become? Why did I stay so long? Why was I commenting about a cow?
I hope so. They are going after my potted plants now.
I'm waging a losing war against the squirrels for my flower bed. So far, I have saturated the area with Irish Spring soap shreds and sprayed a mix of Repel All/Tobasco sauce on everything. The smell is nauseating.
Does anyone know if those sonic repellant machines actually work?

I love it! I'm looking around the fediverse and the options are impressive.
