It's like you're not even trying to give me a seizure.

Temptinggg

I am trying to pull off a careful balance between modern web browser support and backwards compatibility hehe

I have complicated feelings about Flash :P

No, I don't but I love conlangs! (Actually I tried to learn it once buy didn't get far, heh). What I like about lojban and loglan is how opinionated and strikingly different it looks from everything else.

(I agree, Lojban is quite unusual (lovingly) among the languages. I love Lojban :3 Many people say the project of Lojban is a failure or an error but I disagree, I think it's just unfinished)

If you ever decide to pick it up again you're always welcome to come chat with me ofc :3 I also found this Discord server recently that is seemingly less xekce-prone (xekce means being pedantic or mean about people's Lojban-speaking lol) than the IRC which I'm happy to share too (the Discord invite). I think it's run by la janbe: https://www.youtube.com/@NoiseAndBells who makes very pretty music in Lojban and other things

Somehow it's been easier for me to learn over the last few months than any natural or other constructed languages lol. The fact that it has an actual formal grammatical definition (meaning computers can tell me if what I said is grammatically correct or not!!) has helped me soooo much hehe. I usually write with a parser that checks me as I write. Recently I've been thinking about trying to write a better kind of parser for Lojban in Lambda Prolog which is this pretty obscure logic programming language that is like Prolog but has these types of logical formulas called hereditary Harrop formulas in addition to Horn clauses that are more well-known and make up Prolog, not to mention has support for higher-order logic based on the Lambda calculus and Church's simple theory of types. In general it's quiteeee good at being a language to specify other languages. Lojban itself has some concepts in it that kinda imply that it has a semantics like the Lambda calculus (like ka and ce'u), have been wondering if the language itself could benefit from the existence of more capable parsers. As always with predicate logic, relatively easy to use, very hard to figure out what all those quantifiers and variables actually mean :3 especially if you maybe want to do computing with it (programming with Lojban is my dream hehe). Sry don't mean to infodump too hard lol. Look up "lojban bear goo" if you want to get an idea of the problems the logic of Lojban has hehehe. I also wrote a brief post about it here if you're interested: https://hexbear.net/post/3947641 (I have since come around to being okay with xorlo I think lol)

I am maybe a massive nerd lol, the type Lojban tends to attract but I am less brainwormed I think

Fonts indeed can make a big difference, especially if you can find some of those fancy fonts that were included on CDs back in the day on some old FTP site. Or else good old Comic Sans, Impact or Bauhaus will do just fine. After all, 90s aesthetics were often kind of garish ;)

Oooh, I will go looking, I want a fancy font :3

I really hope that you will feel better soon!

Tyyy, I hope so too. Havent been able to access my medication for the usual burger imperium reasons, have been withdrawing :( is why feeling so bad. I hope today I can get it
