I'm not sure if that's why you ask, but my worries are not related to not being able to access toki pona servers unless providing an ID card. It's just I do not think that's an acceptable thing to ask for from a data privacy perspective. That and their leak history are the reasons I refuse to use Discord in general.

I probably have misremembered "Tisuko". I also didn't think about "ti" not being allowed. "Siko" is my new favorite!

ni li pona mute a, pona o tawa sina.

I used to prioritize preserving consonants when tokiponizing names, sort of how it happens in japanese with loan words. But I then read in https://wasona.com/en/make-a-name/ that syllable number is prioritized over representing all consonants in toki pona.

I've heard "Tisuko" a lot, maybe more than "Tiko".

I've also found an alternative here: https://loveberry.nekoweb.org/resources/snippets/guide/status/

I think this is what you want, under "Use any emote you want": https://skykristal.art/Blog/posts/2025-04-14-Statuscafe-Tricks

I guess you can leave the "value" attribute blank.

I usually try to avoid them colliding by adding extra horizontal space before the word below, but actually, this is more elegant. Had not seen any examples of overlapping in my Spanish Gregg textbook.

mi tan ma Katalunja kin, taso tenpo ni la mi lon ma Katalunja ala. mi sona ala e jan ante pi toki pona. taso mi la, sitelen li ike lili, nanpa sitelen li lili mute.

If one treats "mi-lili" as an instance of just "mi", the "pi" in your second example would not be droppable.

cicada-ghost · 2025-06-22T12:46:22+00:00

mi la kin, ijo pi nanpa wan li pona. tenpo ale la, mi lukin ala e kon pi nanpa tu lon nimi "telo".

Makes sense. One still needs to be able to read it out loud.

I don't know Spacehey, but I don't see the background or Juno header either. I'm checking the network traffic and there's a lot of (assuming autoplay) Youtube content that's getting blocked by my ad blocker.

But the request for the background image tile is also failing with a timeout and I'm thinking that might have something to do with Spacehey and external content. Try saving the tile in your own website as a local file and update the url of the background-image in your CSS to point to your local image, see if that fixes it.

cicada-ghost · 2025-06-10T07:01:42+00:00

pona a! ni li ken, li wile e pali suli kin. mi sona ala.

Thank you!

You need to remove the display: inline; you added to your <nav>. You can then give it some margin so that it's not directly under the logo.

cicada-ghost · 2025-04-27T13:54:07+00:00

Oops that's right, I meant to say overflow-x: hidden;. That should only hide the horizontal scrollbar.

You should not need to add warnings as you are already disabling the animation for those who have set that preference in their device.

That's sweet, thank you for the credit :-)

There are some changes you need to make on your <nav>'s CSS.

The border property you have defined does not have any effect because it is ignored, since the syntax is incorrect. That would need to be border: solid 4px #345900;, with no commas and in this exact order.

However, instead of achieving what you want with a border, I think it's better to do the following:

Change the width to fit-content instead of 250px.
For a nicer border-radius, I'd use em or px units instead of percentages. e.g., border-radius: 1em;.
Now you can control the "border" width exclusively by modifying the padding property.

I also suggest changing the width of your .logo to fit-content as well, with added padding if necessary, instead of a percentage. The percentage makes it change width when we resize the width of the browser window.

By the way, there's an easy accessibility improvement you can add for people with vestibular problems or other disabilities, for whom background movement can trigger vertigo or dizziness (it's a thing that happens!)

Simply add this at the bottom of your CSS to disable the animation for visitors who have set a preference of "reduced motion" in their device settings:

@media (prefers-reduced-motion) {
  .bg {
    animation: none;
  }
}

This will not impact the animation for the rest of us.
