TIL the flash animation I made in 2004 is still available on Newgrounds.
I’m pretty sure you’re the most famous person to use Lemmy. Well besides Margot Robbie
31k views on Newgrounds. I’m basically the Taylor Swift of Lemmy.
The cellular-bananular phone changed my life. I still sing it to this day
Interactivodular?
Newgrounds is dead serious about preserving its content, even with the death of Flash. Ruffle, the Flash emulator, was created by a former employee and Newgrounds is a major sponsor of the project. The most important movies have been converted to video as well.
When Newgrounds adopted high-resolution thumbnails about a decade and a half ago, there was a big volunteer campaign to recreate thumbnails for the entire back catalogue of the portal.
Thanks to Ruffle, people can and are still submitting Flash content to the portal, in addition to web-friendly content!
yo, this is straight fire
fuck I started leaning to program in flash specifically because of videos like this.
Actionscript 2 was the shit
Flash for Dummies was my first book on programing. I used it to make games about feces.
Newgrounds would be awesome in the Fediverse tbh, would bring so much content (beyond politics and news).
Image hosting seems to be super problematic with activity pub, especially with something pf Newgrounds’ size. I’m super invested in this, can’t wait to see where it’ll go.
So we need better federated hosting…
Can’t they just not allow anyone on their server? Like read-only while people talk about it from other servers?
Reading still requires distributing media
Omg that would be peak 🥹
