I feel like Unity has just cut off the top of their user funnel with this and guaranteed their slow fall into obsolescence. Large companies using Unity won't move away immediately, neither will many indie devs currently working on projects they are too deep into to pivot. But any new game developer will either go to Unreal or Godot if they want something ready made to ship. Companies will see what all the new talent is using, and will slowly start moving away from wanting to use Unity, since their incoming employees have other skills.

It won't be a fast death. The "leaked" cap at 4% will quiet people down and not make anyone go bankrupt, but I do think they have irreversibly hurt their future with this wild swing.

Also been enjoying Sea of Stars, it's like the modern love child of Super Mario RPG, Lunar and Chrono Trigger

Dnsimple for me. Swapped from GoDaddy like 10 years ago and haven't really felt the need to explore elsewhere, the costs are pretty good and never had any issues.

Just put the card in your wallet and scan it like a metro pass card.

I'm using Connect on Android and it's been pretty flawless. Until I see a reason to swap, or a less insane paid version I'll just keep using this.

The containers are useful for having multiple accounts. Eg I have a work tab that has my work Gmail/PayPal/etc accounts logged in, so I can easily switch contexts without closing all my other tabs/windows

I have a pretty basic org-roam setup I think. I keep my org files all in a directory called "org" that I sync with syncthing (previously I used Dropbox), and whenever I setup a new machine, I just grab that folder and put it at my user root (with Dropbox I would just symlink the folder from "~/Dropbox/org" to "~/org").

Now no matter what machine I am on and where I make my changes I have them all up to date.

I generally have large nodes that contain all my knowledge, and I split them up as they get too big. E.g I used to have a single UnityEngine node, but over time I have split it up into many different nodes: EditorWindow, ScriptableObjects/UnitTesting/etc..

I have at least one node for each of my projects, and there is a "Tasklist" heading in each of those project nodes which contain all my TODOs, those project files are tagged with the name of the project, so that I can easily write an org-agenda search to grab all the TODOs from a single project into a single view without anything else I have stored in the file (which includes a project synopsis, architecture notes/UML diagrams, general notes, etcc..).

Since I am already in emacs when I am writing code, this keep it very simple for me to have this information as accessible as all my code files are. When I discover a new language feature or have to look something up, I just open up the node for that language, and put that new information in, linking to the source where i grabbed that snippet, or where the full MSDN documentation is stored if I need to go more in depth that my short description I write it. Copying down the information helps me internalize it, and I can easily just search through that file for information I have stored. This means that even if I don't have internet access, I have access to all my previously looked up information I maybe have forgotten.

undefined> trying to have an async conversation over time on Discord (and other IM solutions) is garbage compared to forum threads. While Discord added threading, in my experience not enough people have either adopted it ,or use it properly.

I agree wholeheartedly, Discord is great for being a live chatroom, and for chatting over voice chat with friends, for any other purpose it is awful, and I am so baffled by so many product decisions to move to Discord. I feel like its a bunch of younger kids that played with their friends on it, and it has become the Hammer they use for every communication scenario, when most things are not nails.

Ive tried out loads of thees knowledge base apps, but I always end up coming back to org-mode and org-roam. Once I integrated everything into Emacs, its hard to swap out to something else.

Pretty sad about this, this has been my go-to theatre for years for anything that I don't plan on seeing in IMAX. They had super comfy seats and the staff there was always really friendly. Plus the BART access was right through the Westfield, with the parking structure across the street so even if it was really rainy it wasn't an issue.

I second this, and it has been bugging me since people started talking about the blackout. I think the big issue is that the people organizing the 48hr blackout are the mods. These are the people that have invested the most into reddit, and they dont want to give up that investment into their subreddits. They don't want to leave reddit, and giving people an agreed upon alternative would be permanently fracturing their little fiefdom. They want to make a statement, and then for things to go back to the way they were, hoping that their tiny act of defiance makes a difference. The migration has to be led by users, but the issue of fractured lemmy communities is going to be hard to navigate unless lemmy introduces a way for communities to link together.
