Fun fact: they spent quite a while working on a segmented 3D animation system for all the sprites. Every sprite is split up into segments, and then those segments are positioned in 3D space depending on the camera angle. They can even independently move each part of a character, like a leg, without having to create an entirely new sprite just for one frame.

This is 3 years old at this point, but this should give a good idea of how the new animation system works!

People need to understand what this will mean from a developer perspective before getting all up in arms. This initiative is more kneejerk emotional than it is realistic.

Had to quadruple take this wasn't a Battle Network community, what a crazy thing to see on Lemmy.

We should bring back r/OkBuddyNetwork on Lemmy.

OF requires strict government issued ID verification in some jurisdictions. Patreon does not, at least in the US.

That should be your deciding factor already. No one should have their privacy invaded just to send you a few bucks a month.

He did not really step down, it was just a symbolic public gesture. He's still actively contributing to the project, check the GitHub commits and comments. He just stopped having so many Twitter meltdowns.

I don't think I've been banned, but I did a similar thing. I requested all my data from Reddit, then used that list of comment/post IDs to mass-edit them. I think I'm in the clear because I used the official third party API, with an official "app." If you used the private API or instrumented this via the browser, that may be why you were banned.

Anyway, if you or someone else wants their full history, Reddit will give it to you via a data export request.

I can't believe OP is actually forklift certified

Forgejo is Gitea. It was a soft fork of Gitea, and more recently a hard fork.

You can read about why they hard forked, and decide for yourself if it's worth switching, but the consensus is that Forgejo is in better hands than Gitea.

Currently it's easy to migrate from Gitea to Forgejo, but the longer you wait and the more it diverges from Gitea, the harder it will become to migrate.

If you like the Forgejo direction and think it's in better hands than Gitea, you might want to consider migrating sooner rather than later. All of your data should remain intact as it's essentially a drop in replacement. This should only take you a few minutes if you're using the Docker version of Gitea.

Cloudflare Tunnels are black magic and exactly what you're looking for:

Free, no need to self host a server somewhere externally. Can even be used for SSH!

They will do literally anything except support the Steam Deck

I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about this:

I agree with the sentiment here, but all the technologies mentioned allowed us to ship a working application in a timely manner. I think that should always be the first goal. Now that this is out of the way, we can start looking at improving efficiency, security, resilience etc.

"Security Second" is not good messaging for a project like this.

But I'm glad my comment was hilarious to you.

I don't need or want replication of my private projects to a peer to peer network. That's just extra bandwidth to and from my server, and bandwidth can be expensive. I already replicate my code to two different places I control, and that's enough for me.

I'm not sure who Radicle is for, but I don't think the casual hobbyist looking to self host something like Forgejo would benefit at all from Radicle.

Loading the source code for Radicle on Radicle also seems fairly slow. It seems this distributed nature comes at a speed tradeoff.

With the whole Yuzu thing going on, I can see some benefit to Radicle for high profile projects that may be subject to a takedown. In that respect, it's a bit like "Tor for Git."

I suspect that over time, pirate projects and other blatantly illegal activities will make use of Radicle for anti-takedown reasons. But to me, these two projects solve two different problems, for two different audiences, and are not really comparable.

Edit: There is already enough controversy surrounding Radicle, that, if I were someone looking to host a takedown-resistant, anonymous code repository, I would probably be better served hosting an anonymous Forgejo instance on a set of anonymous Njalla domains and VPSes. The blockchain aspect was already a bit odd, and what I'm now seeing from Radicle does not exactly inspire confidence. I don't think I'll ever use this.
