that glow squid post haunts me. i genuinely love glow squids but it reads like a dream stan thing in retrospect and i did also like the other choices i just disliked people not having any vision for what glow ink could do

#sometimes it feels like either people have 0 imagination and take every word at face value in the mob votes and use that to get upset #(ignoring that the mobs are a CONCEPT and not in any way finished before community input happens) #OR they have more imagination than mojang/extrapolate ten bajillion nodes away from the root and use THAT to get upset #(often not taking into account game balance. or performance impact. or accessibility. or replayability. or cross-language coding. #and cross-platform playability. all of which are hugely hugely important bc mojang!! is a socially-conscious!!! company!! that makes games! #for all ages!!) #also no disrespect to dream stans i dont get it and i dont like the vibe of the fandom but thats nothing about u as people who Like Things #i simply dont like feeling misrepresented or misinterpreted so the fact that post still gets acknowledged regularly fucks me up #anyway. #without glow squids we'd still be stuck with flat unreadable sign text #and no cute lil beacons in the distance to know how far the cave goes #and as updates go on theyll probs be making glow ink more useful and interesting #just. like. its a video game #where u can do what u want when u want forever #u dont need to get so upset #and u DONT need to harrass the team about mob votes #i know mojang is a company is owned by microsoft #that doesnt mean that like. Those Arent People Working On And Loving The Game
