Obsidian.md. It runs on markdown files, so even if you decide you don't like Obsidian, you've still got all the files. It's super easy to sync with SyncThing or probably Google Drive or whatever. It's free, and the are a ton of plugins for it. Peri sure there's a Lemmy community for it around, too.

Looks like there are no plans for AI in their VTT:

Update 2/08: Hasbro's representation has sent us a statement about the usage of AI in future games: “We’re very excited about the partnership with Xplored, but want to clarify that this partnership is centered around future applications within board games and not the Dungeons & Dragons tabletop roleplaying game or its upcoming virtual tabletop.”

Their VTT seems primed for microtranactional garbage though, and Foundry is amazing, so I don't think I'll touch it.

Cory Doctorow may have you covered; he just posted recently about his next book, which sounds like it deals with what you're talking about, and tries to find ways to fix it: https://mamot.fr/@pluralistic/110809535924735163

PHP is a Hypertext Preprocessor was the original recursive acronym

It looks like they're a good bit older than PHP, according to Wikipedia.

As for the rest, I'd agree that new projects would be better served to used something other than PHP.

Yeah it seems to be working for logged-out browsing still. That means no easy way to get to subbed groups, and of course means no nsfw content now.

I don't know Spellmonger; I'll have to check it out

Good question; it doesn't seem misleading to me. Here's the relevant bit:

Willner is staying on in an “advisory role” but has asked Linkedin followers to “reach out” for related opportunities. The former OpenAI project lead states that the move comes after a decision to spend more time with his family.

Here's the list from the article:

The Lord of the Rings Trilogy by J. R. R. Tolkien

A Song of Ice and Fire Series by George R.R Martin

American Gods by Neil Gaiman

His Dark Materials by Philip Pullman

Mistborn Series by Brandon Sanderson

The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan

Dune by Frank Herbert

The Night Angel by Brent Weeks

The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern

The First Law series by Joe Abercrombie

The Dresden Files by Jim Butcher

A Wizard of Earthsea by Ursula K. Le Guin

The Graveyard Book by Neil Gaiman

Discworld by Terry Pratchett

The Fifth Season by N.K. Jemisin

The Way of Kings by Brandon Sanderson

Foundryside by Robert Jackson Bennett

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins

The Chronicles of Narnia by C.S. Lewis

The Kingkiller Chronicle, #1 by Patrick Rothfuss

Temeraire by Naomi Novik

For me a lot of these are solid, but some are pretty questionable. I regret the time I spent with Night Angel, for example, and found Hunger Games to be entertaining, but not substantial enough to get past the first book.

UI mods are not a thing, no. The best you can get is some overlays that put additional stuff on the screen.

Yeah, it's a super coconut clickbait-y title. For anyone else, here's the relevant bit:

Because of that, Apple’s comment submission lets the UK government know that if it moves ahead with these changes, UK customers will no longer have access to FaceTime or iMessage.
