Worthwhile post, wrong community.

I think they mean expenses, not revenue.
I may have misunderstood your comment.
If you’re asking what the downsides of not using “feeling” language is, from my perspective, when a comment is just stated, the statement comes across as a statement of fact, rather than someone’s understanding.
Someone’s understanding of something is not always fact and by lowering the statement from a ‘fact’ to an ‘understanding’ it lowers the temperature when information counter to someone’s understanding is presented.
My experience, is that it also helps start a dialogue. Example:
Person 1: “My understanding is that the government heats homes with space lasers.” Person 2: “I hadn’t heard that. My understanding is that homes are heated with building heaters. Can you provide me with a source to look more into the lasers you described?”
Versus: Person 1: “The government heats homes with space lasers.” Person 2: “You’re wrong. Homes are heated with internal heaters. Where did you hear that?”
From my perspective, the first exchange is more amicable and the second more contentious and more likely to lead to insults rather than a constructive conversation.
Edit: spelling.
Nothing. They’re a suggestion. I’ll work on restating the list to better reflect that. Appreciate the feedback.
Probably should be reworded as a suggestion rather than a rule.


Maybe a simple program that grabs an RSS feed from steam and searches the title for key words.
If keywords are found it passes the notification to you. Otherwise, ignores it.


Had another thought. If you could remote into their server could they not remote into your server?
I’m thinking this could be a good gateway trial option for clients. You set up services on your server and give them limited time access to the server to use the FOSS software. If they want, after the trial they can transfer their data. You then wipe the server to ensure their data is erased.
Also, an option I’m not sure you’d be excited about. You host everything for them and offer the service of using your server for their business needs (rather than just a trial). May be less headache in the long run (less overall hardware means less overall issues, presumably).
For the running of software on your server, I believe there are companies that do that already for the fediverse instances. May be worth looking at and seeing what they offer and for what price.


I think this could be a thing, but I feel getting the word out would be the hard part.
Maybe going to small business/incubator business networking events could provide potential clients. Getting in touch with incubators in general would probably be good, as they can pass word to their clients. Colleges and universities may be another avenue of getting the word out to potential new small businesses.
Also to consider, if it’s for businesses, there would need to be data redundancy. Otherwise, I feel, it would be a nonstarter. Data recovery/access to redundancy would likely need to be automated or very easy to do, otherwise you’re probably looking at irate calls in the middle of the night.


Language Transfer is free and teaches you why the language is the way it is rather than just memorization.
My recollection is you can get to a 3000 word conversational level much faster than via straight memorization (ex. Duolingo).


To echo what your saying and add a bit, it seems to me Godot would be a great idea.
Given OP has already stepped away from development once, I think a more universal game engine rather than a custom engine would be beneficial.
Also, I suspect, there are a lot more Godot developers compared to people who are willing to take time to understand and develop a custom game engine.
I’m not familiar with deploying custom code/packages/programs on a multitude of systems, but from the Godot updates, my understanding is that, its clicking a box. I feel that multiple systems are a nontrivial hurdle that could be avoided via Godot.
Last thing off the top of my head is that I recall one of the Godot tutorials is developing a pixel art fighting game. That seems like it would be an easy way to boot strap the game’s development.
Regardless, I think a FOSS brawler game is a great idea. Good luck with development and I look forward to checking it out when its available.


My understanding is you can’t migrate posts and comments, but you can migrate subscriptions and blocks. I’ve done it to both Lemmy and Piefed instances.


I think the common answer is native plants.
Fediverse community links:


It’s been a while since I’ve seen archer, but I think the firefly designs are more detailed.
We’ll probably have to wait until a trailer to see if they stay this detailed for the actual show.


Different post had an example of the style.


Looks like Lemmy lost 3.4% of MAU over the last week (Fediverse Activity Post). With severs jumping in and out it might feel more like 7-8%.
If you want to stick with fediverse software, you can try mastodon (somewhat able to interact with Lemmy, Piefed, and Mbin) and Writefreely as an alternative to substack.
I quickly looked for a Minecraft community for you, because I remember blocking one long ago (not my interest anymore), but seems it may have died off. If you ever find a “dead” community you can always ask the admins to make you mod (happens relatively regularly). Alternatively, you can make a knew one if you want to head the effort.
Lemmy 1.0 is coming in the next couple months. You’ll probably see an influx of new users then. It might be worth it for you, if you want a Minecraft community, to get started now, so people with the same interest with see an active community and join.
