Delta Boogie Newsletter/Gamer+ News - March 2024 - G+DBN Social Network

https://gamerplus.org/@hairylarry/pages/1710195029328

Ok now, I've put all my eggs in one basket. Gamer+, a server on the fediverse, has now incorporated the Delta Boogie Network. Both Gamer+ and the Delta Boogie Network have a long history of running social networks on unfederated servers, the kind where you only see people who have logged onto that particular server. That's the past. The fediverse is the future. On G+DBN you can follow anyone on any federated server, whether it's Mastodon, Firefish, Peertube, Funkwhale, &&etc.

So, for me, G+DBN is the one ring that rules them all. The place where I post and read and respond to your posts. I still have my account on mastodon.social and I do boost my hype there. But G+DBN is where I make all my social network posts.

If you want to you can join G+DBN at

Or if you are already on Mastodon or some other federated server you can follow me here

@hairylarry@gamerplus.org.

Or if you want to view my profile go here.

And what is G+DBN all about? My two consuming interests gaming and music viewed through a free culture lens. I love RPGs but all gaming is on topic. I play jazz and blues but all music is on topic. Free culture is a way to share your work with copyright licenses like Creative Commons or GPL licenses.

I license my music CC BY so that you can collaborate with Hairy Larry.

My RPG, Just Quest, a rules extremely light OSR system designed for fantasy role playing is licensed CC BY.

Sly Flourish, who I follow on G+DBN, has an article titled, "What 5e in the Creative Commons Means to You".

Yes, the 5e SRD is licensed CC BY.

So now that the Delta Boogie Network has been folded into Gamer+ what about deltaboogie.net?

I wrote a program to display All My Feeds - Gaming, Music, Free Culture. RSS or Really Simple Syndication was the first social network, tying blogs and websites together since 1999. It remains one of the best social networks today. It's a standard specification not a company. Anyone can use it for free.
