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 be a bit of work to connect up the logins of the two softwares since they both handle people and logins differently. So probably not something supported on release but I can try to see if I can do something

    And yeah I can recommend 2fa somewhere

  • lemm.ee I dont know (probably their politics compared to hexbear's), aussie.zone was due to some comments by their admin. programming.dev was due to the situation with snowe thats a bit back in meta. The votes for aussie.zone and us were tied half for federation half against

  • Pangora is getting merged into sublinks-ui. Ive been moving over stuff I made for it and adapting it to their codebase. Was planning on soft forking sublinks into a new version of pangora but might not need to tbh, all my stuff I wanted is getting added into sublinks

  • Alternative to lemmy being developed (but is also using activitypub so the two federate and its compatible with the lemmy api so frontends like sync, boost, photon, etc. will still work). When version 0.1 releases itll essentially have parity with lemmy features but with a better UI and then the next updates will be adding more things for moderation, federation, etc.

    People from our instance, discuss.online, lemmy.world, etc. have been working on it

    Here's an article https://wedistribute.org/2024/01/sublinks-a-replacement-for-lemmy/

  • Will mostly be decided when that happens (and sublinks should be giving a lot more tools to work with for federation and moderation). Within the instance itself we didnt have any issues with hexbear users though

  • Its already been fixed (if I remember the patch notes correctly from 0.19 base), they just havent upgraded yet. Been seeing cross instance moderation working better in my queue

  • Yeah. Shows people in a list with an up or down arrow beside each of them (downvotes hoisted to the top). Helps make it easier to stop vote manipulation. People can theoretically spin up an instance to get who upvoted or downvoted but they could anyways in the database

  • Turns out to be something specific to a certain instance and how they configured things so were updating today or close to today now

  • Update: something major possibly broke. Were waiting a bit longer and possibly until 0.19.4 if its bad enough

  • Probably soon, just been making sure nothing major broke in the 0.19.3 update before we move over

    The 0.19.1 version isnt ideal but its still usable if the server is restarted every day so gives us some time and after the situation with 0.19 0.19.1 were being more cautious

  • Alright ive modded you, since its at 2 mods now ill unpin the post

  • Theres a link to the community for it in the comment above. Basically will be primarily about making and guessing passwords (but also have some idle game stuff in there as well but no spoilers until I start testing which might be today edit: auths taking longer, testing this week)

  • I assume that's referring to the clues? They'll be randomly generated based on instance info I pull in

  • Its happening once a year so likely in the summer

    Im working on another event that may happen next month though depending on if I finish the rest of the things to do in my queue of projects !safe_crackers@programming.dev

    (so this and canvas will be 6 months apart from each other)

  • I just transferred the community over to ericjmorey due to them posting in the mod thread so ill try to not manage this as much but I can give my opinion on this community

    With all of the question communities ive found that the posting rate is much lower but the engagement on each post is relatively high. If the scope is widened the high activity could be flooded out due to people unsubscribing due to it not being focused on the question topic anymore

    (for articles formatted as a question) With articles the focus tends to be more about the article rather than the question itself and you get people talking about things discussed within the article rather than it being open ended

    Feel like best thing would be having a new community for career articles

    edit: If having a new community for career articles is what you guys want after this discussion just let me know and I can set one up

  • Yeah sure, both cscareerquestions and data engineering are solely admin run currently so starting to move them into dedicated mod teams would be great

    For cscareerquestions you just need a post or comment in the community I can use to mod you from

  • Alright ive transferred the community over to you

  • Theres some other sources like monkeyuser and abstrusegoose. Also encourages the creation of new comics
