Bullet heaven type game (similar to vampire suvivors for people whove never heard that genre name before) where you need fight alongside animal companions against hordes of yokai

The theme of the jam was Folklore so we ended up tying it in different ways to Japanese folklore (including basing some of the concept of the game off of Kintaro)

Hope you enjoy :)

The soundtrack is also available to listen to on another itch page https://team-auboreal.itch.io/the-legend-of-akio-ost

No precise date, it's basically just when we feel its been thoroughly tested to make sure its actually stable and I don't want to give a deadline that might get missed if we want to wait a tiny bit longer due to some reports

But yeah probably 1-2 weeks if theres no issues

0.19.4 ended up causing issues so we never updated to it while some other instances did and those require the 0.19.5 fixes more than we do currently

Small Site Outage (programming.dev)
submitted 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) by Ategon@programming.dev to c/meta@programming.dev

Hey everyone! Recently there was a small issue with the backend (docker shenanigans) that brought the site down and then took a bit to fix

Things should be fixed for now and we will be looking more at it in the future to try to prevent the site from being taken down that way again

Downtime was around 30 minutes

The best place to reach us when theres an outage with the site and to receive updates of it is on the discord server or matrix space or on one of our microblog accounts

Lemmyvision Song Contest (stacks.programming.dev)

Hey everyone! I wanted to do a post here talking about an event going on in the fediverse called Lemmyvision. This is a competition where various communities each choose a song and then those are voted on by users to rank which ones people enjoy the most.

Its being ran as a fun way to see various kinds of music from around the world, sharing more between our online communities across Lemmy, and as a way to songs from lesser known artists. We are participating with game soundtracks as an opportunity to showcase new advancements in the game development space, especially for indie games that might otherwise not get much exposure.

There was a national final to determine the song our instance would submit in the programming.dev event community. After voting the song Your Inception from the game Casette Beasts was chosen.

Submitted Songs and Voting

Ive compiled all of the songs into playlists on three different platforms for watching

Feel free to listen to them and vote using the voting link https://tally.so/r/nWNgKQ. When selecting what instance you are representing theres an option to select programming.dev for people voting from the instance.

Voting is done by ranking the songs from your favorite to your least favorite. Users from our instance can't rank the song we submitted to keep things fair.

If you want to chat with other people about the competition theres a community for it here

Future Events

This post will be going into the meta community for people who might not know the event community exists (and i'll likely be doing another post when the event Canvas is happening).

Any other future posts will be posted in the programming.dev event community. All major event posts will be made on our blog with the category set to the event name and the tag "Event".

It looks like you were temp banned from the linux community for 3 days

The comment you made was transphobia which goes against the programming.dev code of conduct. I suggest reading the comment of the user who replied to you and learning how to respect people more

This comment

does not qualify as a "respectful conversations where no one is insulting each other, or anyone else"

Hey everyone! Ive made a form that can be used to give feedback about the site including what you think its doing well and what you think needs improvement

Based on responses if something is highly requested we can prioritize improving/adding that first

Ill try to run these a couple times a year


Will be pinned for a day in the instance

Theres been some weekly posts in some communities for people to share updates (weekly thread in !rust@programming.dev and screenshot saturday in !gamedev@programming.dev ) so figured would try to run a generalized version in the main programming community!

If youve worked on something this week feel free to share it below. If you have a project to show off in general we also have the !showoff@programming.dev community in the instance that you can post in

Its still only voters, lurkers that dont do any actions arent counted

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 40 points 3 months ago

Barely any since fedidb excludes botted instances

The increase here though is cause lemmy.world upgraded to 0.19 and 0.19 includes voters as active users

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 44 points 4 months ago* (last edited 4 months ago)

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

Calculation for MAU changed so the old MAU and the new MAU cant really compared

old one used to include commenters and posters while the new one has that and also voters
both are missing people who dont do any of these three actions though

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 37 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Thanks for merging in some of my changes <3

Code block support should be great for posts coming from programming.dev and the active user change should help communities feel a bit more alive and be more accurate to actual activity

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 56 points 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago)

Zoomed out graph including some months before the join wave

Users/month are relatively stable now at 33x users/month compared to pre join wave (users/month is people who have posted or commented)

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 58 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

For anybody interested, the monthly active users including voters is 131,150 (131k)

The one in the graph only takes into account people who have made a post or comment

Edit: The halfyear active users including voters is 253,166 (253k)

[-] Ategon@programming.dev 52 points 7 months ago

Theres a new algorithm that should be coming in an update soon (I assume 0.19) called Scaled

This is basically the hot algorithm but takes into account the monthly active users of the community so communities with less monthly active users show up more and arent dominated by the meme communities

Would fix the issue you say there
