If anyone does want to support them, even by a small amount, and don't have much money, I personally recommend subscribing for a month or two to the Premium+ subsciption, which is only $2.99/month. It's all I can afford atm personally, so that's what I'm going to be doing. They deserve support just for this action alone.

They officially announced they were switching to the Arweave protocol in a post a little under a month ago, but I'm not sure if it's happened yet; haven't looked further into it yet, and it was revealed by other sources a little while prior to that.

Reading SuperTux Advance made me imagine a Game Boy Advance demake of SuperTux, that would actually be so cool.

Edit: Oh, it seems I was half correct. It appears to be a re-imagining of the original game in a GBA art style.

I still haven't tried it, but I've heard how great Veloren apparently is. It's an MMO voxel game that takes inspiration from Zelda: Breath of the Wild and is written in Rust.

It's funny because it's true. And it's funny because people think you're trolling.

Based on how Wikipedia explains it in your link, I think the feeling I get from liminal spaces is similar, but not the exact same thing as what I described. Liminal spaces often elicit feeling often from an unexpected lack of something that should usually be there. For example, being in mega-sized stadium all by yourself, where there would usually be thousands of people at once, or walking around your school yard ultra early in the morning when nobody is around. This certainly produces a similar feeling to what I described in my post, but different, and I can still get the feeling in busy or loud environments, it's just much rarer, and I haven't experienced it enough to be able to tell exactly what sets it off in busy or noisy environments.

I got it once in the last year when I visited the city of Melbourne, Australia. I arrived at Southern Cross railway station. I had to wait for a friend to pick me up from there. I stood out of the way and leaned against a wall right beside a Hungry Jacks (fast food franchise), and the feeling came over me when I observed my surroundings, despite being in a very busy and noisy environment. This is kind of an opposite situation to the feeling you get from liminal spaces.

The scuba diving sounds like it would do it for me, for sure. Even though I've never done it before and might not be able to because of my asthma, just imagining it (especially if I'm by myself), slightly gives me that feeling (I'm pretty good at visualising environments). That sounds like it would be fun.

I'm a Christian and believe in the existence of spirit, so I agree this is probably something spiritual.

True. For some reason I was sure I remembered the mobile version of my banks website not working for actual banking, but it turns out it does, at least currently. Hopefully it stays that way and they don't push too hard for the app. If they do drop it, I can always block app trackers with a DNS service like Mullvad or Quad9

Thanks, my bank is compatible according to that list.

On a side note, I prefer the world border method of having an ocean surrounding the world with an invisible wall, since it makes the world feel like it's actually small. In Java, you can see the world continue to generate outside the border, which, when shrunk to make the world smaller, gives you the sense that you're simply trapped in a small section of a world and can never fully explore it. In legacy, you know you can explore every nook and cranny.
