Things drifting, arriving. Things you do not fully control. The app is about something arriving to you, game is more about something you can go out and find. https://driftya.com/content/when-notes-become-something-you-can-find #sea #indiedev #gamedev #flying #exploring24 Apr 2026 16:13 +0000at://did:plc:pw3ycbgy6qudgcdt5vbfwqd4/app.bsky.feed.post/3mkawaiylms26https://bsky.app/profile/driftya.bsky.social/post/3mk6kc67ghs2iNow it easier to know where you are moving, a screenshot from mobile.

I think "likes" does not really add meaningful value to the actually content more than giving the creator more pressure to create more content. I believe likes should come as a reply instead with constructive criticism. #socialmedia #socialnetworking #creativewriting20 Feb 2026 10:24 +0000at://did:plc:pw3ycbgy6qudgcdt5vbfwqd4/app.bsky.feed.post/3mfbvebq3s227https://bsky.app/profile/driftya.bsky.social/post/3mf7mzrqwys2uIf you sent a message into the world that travels quietly from person to person, would you rather watch it as it grows, or let it return to you only when it’s finished or after a set date? A option I have been thinking of that could be fun to implement. #smallweb #socialmedia #note #IndieDev19 Feb 2026 12:50 +0000at://did:plc:pw3ycbgy6qudgcdt5vbfwqd4/app.bsky.feed.post/3mf7mzrqwys2u
