Indie game developer 🇨🇦

Working on some games for game jams in my free time

Admin of programming.dev and frontend developer for sublinks

Account has automation for some scheduled posts

Site: https://ategon.dev/ Socials: https://ategon.carrd.co/

  • Would you like to participate to Lemmyvision, a Eurovision-like song contest for Lemmy?

    Jump

  • Would programming.dev be able to participate or is it mostly oriented around countries/country instances

    E.g. entering with songs from games (which usually span multiple countries for the production of them and aren't represented in these types of comps)

  • With lemmy.world upgraded to 0.19.3, I'm still not seeing any reports from my moderated communities hosted on lemmy.world

    Jump

  • Weird, might need to raise that as an issue on the lemmy repo

  • Lemmy.world upgraded to 0.19.3 - expect a large increase in reported monthly active users in communities counters, as votes now count as activity

    Jump

  • Only ones left on the 0.18 versions are beehaw and blahaj

  • Update on SJW upgrade to v19.3

    Jump

  • Theres a lot more users that dont even vote as well

    For programming.dev currently we have~ 1.2k MAU. Including people who have an account but dont vote or comment we get closer to 2k. And then including people who dont have an account we get much higher (~ 80k per day but that includes crawlers and bots)

  • What are "Taglines" in the server settings?

    Jump

  • They show up above the posts, below the navbar

    A random one is chosen to show up every time someone visits the page. You can check out https://programming.dev for some examples of them (usually itll be an http status code or a quote)

    Instances either put announcements there (e.g. future downtime), core info (e.g. links to frontends, donate link) or random sentences. Can only be one of the options out of those three though unless you want to delete and remake things a bunch of times to swap between them if you want everyone to see the downtime message

  • Introducing Notes, Files, Schedule, Vault, and Polls!

    Jump

  • Current estimation is around 200 dollars a month. All these small sites im spinning up barely add anything since the usage is negligible compared to something like lemmy. The production server takes up most of the costs out of that amount and then sendgrid costs some

    Donations cover ~ 41% of that currently

    In terms of time its been taking up most of my free time to set all this up + help develop sublinks

  • Voyager and Mlmym Frontend Updates (2024-02-25)

    Jump

  • Thanks, creator pushed out a fix so updated to that

  • Introducing Blocks.Programming.Dev, code snippet sharing

    Jump

  • Not in lemmys current markdown system

    Can theoretically be parsed and embedded though but can't control all frontends people use

    Only thing that works atm is linking to it

    We have another site more oriented towards images and text and then linking those at files.programming.dev but its limited to admins. e.g. of something on that http://files.programming.dev/u/9jsOS3.md

  • Post automatically removed :/

    Jump

  • Blocking doesn't help if they just make new accounts each time

    And yes there was a lot for awhile and now there's also spam on images from the mastodon side that's been coming in

    It's only image posts and its not all posts with a picture, just if the user has basically no posts

  • Finally deleted my reddit account after the AI news. What communities do you recommend on lemmy?

    Jump

  • Post automatically removed :/

    Jump

  • Some trolls post csam which is why this is currently remove everything rather than handle afterwards since I would rather not let our users see csam. If you get a bit of activity in your account that handling goes away and usually ill restore the post a bit after if I see the automod has removed It but looks like you reposted

  • Screenshot Saturday!

    Jump

  • Yeah pretty well documented. Was very easy to spin this up

    This is the class that you spawn in to make a window: Docs

    Each window is technically its own world and them I enable or disable the player on each one depending on if it hits a collider to move to the next room. It is possible to have them all looking at the same world though

  • Removing images from new users

    Jump

  • Thats due to it seeing the account has activity now (votes still federate over even when the post is removed, just people cant see it). Update to the bot would be coming maybe tomorrow or sometime this week. Yeah sure ill restore the ones currently removed

  • Are there really almost 2m Lemmy users?

    Jump

  • Yeah theyre still by far #1 in terms of MAU even when not taking into account votes while everyone else is so might bump it up by another 10k

  • Are there really almost 2m Lemmy users?

    Jump

  • Its based on what instances report. So instances on 0.19 or above would factor in votes into that number. Ones that arent would not (so the number has a combination of both cases)

  • Are there really almost 2m Lemmy users?

    Jump

  • The 2m there is extremely inflated to to bot sign up spam. Back when instances were getting set up in the reddit migration there was some people that started mass signing up accounts on instances with weak security. Fediverse observer doesnt care about any of that and just shows user accounts regardless of what happens on the instance

    Fedidb has a much more accurate count at ~ 400k https://fedidb.org/software/lemmy since they exclude these bot spammed instances. They also have a monthly active user count (~ 38k) based on what instances report for that stat

  • Removing images from new users

    Jump

  • Sure ill add community handling to the exception list

  • Screenshot Saturday!

    Jump

  • Been working on a game for the brackeys jam. Playing around with how windows work in godot

  • We seem to be getting attacked.

    Jump

  • Its from the microblog side but leaking into lemmy a bit since they mass tag everything they find (which includes lemmy communities)
