Selling a game while making it open source.
  • This is what I would do as well. Sure it's pirated, but getting more money for my work is good.

    Although most will still buy it on steam even if open source, just out of ease of use. Anyone who seriously wants to dev on the open source will buy it anyway, or is some random kid who really can't buy it.

    If your working on a next project, I'd say open source this when the next is published. Its a good promotion for a new item and a nail in the coffin for your own work on the old(current) game.

  • Star Trek Strange New Worlds S02E01 "The Broken Circle" Discussion Thread
  • Always stealing the Enterprise, someone needs to start lojacking the thing. By the time of the movies with Kirk it's been stolen, what four or five times?

    I do like that they were instantly caught.

    I can see why it's a standard training scenario by the time of Lower Decks.

    A bit action heavy for Star Trek, but I'm hoping that its just a bombastic opening, I cant really complain. I am surprisingly liking the development with Spock, and overall the crew interactions.

    Looking forward to the rest of the season.

  • I've always thought about creating some metric to weight users who create comments with the most engagement as higher. That leads to the most controversial or dividing comments rising though.

    Some impartial judgement via mod points and or community awards to weigh valuable users would be nice.

    The issue is any of these would be gamed, it might be possible today to use an AI model like ChatGPT but that's got its own biases.

    So for the moment I can't think of a better system than upvote downvote.

  • Does Jerboa have support for notifications on Android?
  • Its a new app, I'm thinking of making my own, not that I think I could do better but just to try work is enough programming though.

    Still, I say give it a few weeks. Let the devs get a handle on Android and this explosive growth.

  • All the sad
  • Still need that alert function on the app.

    Although all this immature development is making me consider taking a stab at programming Social Networks again. Last effort was an app back in College to collate facebook, twitter, reddit, etc into one interface. Very clunky, held together by proverbial tape and crashed when there were non latin characters input. Still, that was fun.

  • Well, it's the nature of almost any online community. Say the 'popular' thing and you're lauded, even if a slightly less popular point is more valid / has better evidence.

    There really is no good way to discourage this other than fostering a community which values the discourse over 'popular' thing. That's difficult to do even offline.

  • Hmm, I don't disagree with the fragmentation but that's the nature of any new social platform. It's also been proven out that eventually one or two communities for a topic will become the dominant one with the others falling into disuse.

    Attempting to merge communities early or artificially will cause moderator strife as minor disagreements balloon. Especially in a multireddit community where no one mod(team) has absolute control.

    I don't have a reason from a technical point of view, but from a social one. Forcing communities and instances together early will only cause strife. After a few years where two communities have a track record and proven 'behavior' would the multireddit not cause issue.
