Yeah mine had right angle moves too. It would drift diagonally, a bit wobbly, then a 90° turn, then float upwards, down, diagonal, all over the place. It was a solid ball of light, like a meteor, except it was bright whte/silver. Fuzzy around the edges. Then it dipped beneath the horizon and that was the end of it.

What I saw could fit that description, but the description is very vague. So I’m not totally convinced, but not totally dismissive either.

I saw a big ball of light in the sky years ago. It would drift, hover, zigzag, move in all very strange ways. I researched it for years and couldn’t find an explanation for it.

I recently tried the haiku community at r*ddit and it has so many strict rules. And the mods are quite harsh. I’ll try this one, and hopefully it’s a bit more chill.

Been listening to a lot of Black Keys recently. Also APT by Rosé and Bruno Mars (not really what I usually listen to but I just like that song) and Station (Meet Me At The) by !!!. That last one really hits home for me at the moment.

I’m not a big movie buff, but this week I watched Sunset Boulevard and The Birds. Sunset Boulevard really impressed me.

I manually set it to New, but your point still stands. I’ll try some other settings too.

Wow, thanks for the suggestions! 🙏 I’m interested in nature, music, conlangs, poetry, songwriting… those are probably the main ones.

Last time a big problem was my feed would literally not change for long periods… then it would update very slowly. I was wary of signing up to instances just to make my feed flow, because that would mean my feed would be full of things I’m not interested in. But I guess I just didn’t find the instances I was looking for.

Will search again now!

I left Reddit during the API fiasco. Tried Lemmy, ran into problem after problem. Went back to Reddit for 3 months, and go deep into the enshittification process. Signed up here today. Hoping I can settle in here!
