I made a script to put gifs & transparent images as your Windows profile picture!
It always annoyed me, how on Windows, if your profile picture is partially transparent, #Windows will convert it to a .jpg file with a black background.
Well, it turns out if you edit the right registry keys (which are super protected even under admin rights, I wonder why!), you can set your account picture with transparency, and even use a #gif which moves and everything!
I made a neat Powershell script that does all of it for you, if you'd like to do it as well!

It may be unconventional, but this short album is probably the truest expression of myself so far. It means a lot to me, and I hope you can find a part or few to connect with. Thank you :)

I see @revoltchat – the open source Discord alternative – recently did a rebranding earlier this month: now they call themselves Stoat. Other than that, nothing major, although there are promises of big updates in the near future.
This rebranding however does not (yet) extend to their Fediverse presence, being only present in Bluesky and Reddit.
