I see a lot of posts from them, and now from This is Not Funhole. They seem to have a particular theme, or style, but the description isn’t very descriptive. What are these communities?
Apparently sdf.org is an ancient (1987!!) unix community server. I would guess they took their established community and in-jokes and stuff and brought some of it over to lemmy
They have a kind of (collaborative?) comic thing that kind of reminds me of SCP but it’s a cyberpunk corpo dystopia with a very distinctive art style
- mobilek = big tech stand-in
- main character (nameless?)
- wise fish wizard to guide main character on the hero’s journey
The fish is the OpenBSD logo/mascot!
Ohhhh! That makes sense
MATA is the BigCorp standin, mobilek is the cell phone model
I thought for sure ‘mobilek’ just means a cellphone in some language’s slang, but surprisingly a brief search doesn’t bring anything up in this vein.
The simplest (and also best imo) story thread is Child of 9 (
kill -9kills any process instantly on the terminal, so child of 9 = child of death) fighting MATAcorpI believe the main character’s name is “Girl”.
rofl that’s perfect
Yes wiki/SDF_Public_Access_Unix_System!
Folks can also check out analognowhere.com for fun content, they have a wiki there too with extra info.
Also mobilek is just a mega/matacorp window basically, just like the matabots.
They’re funhole.
Thanks for engaging with the content.
Have you ever had fun? Imagine doing that in a hole.

Its a hole for fun, whats there not to get?
So, it’s an anus?
With a bottle =)
They have nice art.
They do what they want
I thought funhole was an Onion property that parodies buzzfeed.
That’s Clickhole.
Oh right
Clickhole deserves a statue on its own island in the Wa DC reflecting pool!
It is so much more fun than that
Funhole is mysterious and important.
After reading this thread, I’m still not sure I understand. But I know it when I see it on my feed😆
It’s the now former name of Lego-competitor Lumibricks (and at superior to Lego if you ask me).
I think they’re spelled with an additional “w”. But I agree, they’re superior to Lego.
There’s an art/junk shop called Funhole in Seattle (Fremont). I wonder if the name is related to Unix in any way.
Wait, where is This Is Not Funhole? I can’t find it.
You can find it at !neinhole@horp.sciops.net
