The EDE model: Exploring, Developing and Established Creators
Moin. A while back, I posted a thing about "Why Grinding is bad for you" on r/youtubegaming, where I encouraged gaming creators to try different formats, instead of going for the first thing which comes to mind, which quite often is just a Let's Play. To aid this discussion, I developed the EDE-model, which I… Continue reading The EDE model: Exploring, Developing and Established Creators

SEE-NTS is a new model for online video, backwards compatible to the older Hero-Hub-Help model
Gnome 3. A review.
Moin. You may know Gnome as the "ah, something simple, which... — wait, where are my desktop icons and task bar?" desktop environment. Which, no doubt, it is; it's what I liked about it when I first started using it in version 3.8 all those years ago. But recently, I discovered that it hadn't just… Continue reading Gnome 3. A review.
Observations of the VTuber scene
Moin. This thing is mostly observations of the VTuber scene a few weeks in. I end up making some content recommendations in it, so it might be useful to long-time VTubers as well, though it shouldn't be understood as "this is how you should do something", but rather a "this is how I see it… Continue reading Observations of the VTuber scene
11. A Reflection of Beyond the Edge of the World
Moin. I hope you had fun reading this short story. However, I'm interested in improving, so I've collected some criticism both from me and from others. Alice says: 1. The protagonist is rather forgettable I think I agree with this. I originally wanted to make them genderless (you know, "I" can be anyone! even you!),… Continue reading 11.

Die Scheinheiligkeit der Verwerter
Eine Gruppe von Verwertern, Zeitungs- und Zeitschriftenverlagen hat eine PR-Kampagne namens "Gerechtes Netz" gegen Google, Amazon und Facebook (kurz GAF) gestartet. In dieser Kampagne werben sie für mehr Datenschutz, für weniger Steuerschlupflöcher, gegen Monopole und für Jugendschutz. Das Ziel dieser Kampagne ist laut einem internen Schreiben, Politiker, Beamte und Richter GAF-feindlicher zu stimmen, wohl damit… Continue reading Die Scheinheiligkeit der Verwerter
Warum einfach, wenn’s auch kompliziert geht? Das Schleswig-Holsteinische Semesterticket
Moin. In Schleswig-Holstein gibt es jetzt ein landesweites Semesterticket, und das ist im Prinzip was gutes. Nur in der Ausführung macht es unnötig viel falsch. Das fängt schon beim Bestellprozess an. Das Ticket basiert auf dem Solidaritätsprinzip, es zahlt also jeder, egal ob es genutzt wird oder nicht. Doch nur weil man es bezahlt hat,… Continue reading Warum einfach, wenn’s auch kompliziert geht? Das Schleswig-Holsteinische Semesterticket
In Defense of Redesigns
Moin. Every time a site updates it's design, it seems like the internet comes together to unanimously complain about it. And mostly, these complaints are justified, after all, redesigns completely disrupt normal usage. But are the users right and should we stick to the old designs? And to get the conclusion out first: Complaining constructively… Continue reading In Defense of Redesigns
Writing a fanfic – an experience report
Moin. I recently stumbled about a weekly flash fiction contest thingy on Deviantart, this time, the contest was based around writing something that has to do with your favourite video game. Fanfic it is. Initially, I thought this would be easy because every time I consume media, it spooks around in my mind, essentially being… Continue reading Writing a fanfic – an experience report
