What people defending AI don't understand, is how much people who dislike AI, dislike AI.
It's not just a casual "uhh I am not a fan of this" stance. It is a full rejection paired with mentally stigmatizing, probably forever, the AI product & the company behind it.
People on the internet have long memory. We all know who did NFTs in the past & we know who is doing AI right now.
Are you really ready to brand yourself & your livelihood with this?

Just donated to Kdenlive to help the project continue work on the amazing open source and free (as in beer) video editing tool. ✂️
Donate to the open source software you use!!! ☝️😠

I want to see Steam succeed only because they are pushing Linux gaming forward.
Otherwise I would have never gotten entangled in their ecosystem this much.
Now I own thousands of games on Steam, two old Steam Controllers, one new Steam Controller, and one Steam Link. I advise indie developers releasing their games on Steam.
I still wouldn't mind some options, some competition in that field. There is none.

Got a video recommended called "Steam is not the GOOD MONOPOLY we think it is".
NO SHIT SHERLOCK, IT'S ALMOST LIKE YOU SHOULD NOT DEVELOP A PARASOCIAL ATTACHMENT TO A FUCKING COMPANY?

@eniko@mastodon.gamedev.place This is insane, impractical, and unenforceable under any normal circumstances. What, we want to prevent minors from using technology now? For what purpose? It doesn't make any sense at all.

Happy Steam Controller day to those who celebrate!

Indie games also need to adhere to modern gaming trends... right? 😅
Here is a hand-made meme by yours truly. And if you want to support human-made art and video games, please... 🔴
Add Toadled: Eating Frenzy to your Steam wishlist 👉️ https://store.steampowered.com/app/3173780/Toadled_Eating_Frenzy?utm_source=mastodon
(Reposts and boosts much appreciated)
Someone should make a BIOS update manager for Linux because I don't trust my USB flash drives
I have some slots freeing up in the next months, so if you are indie, small, medium, or big, let's help you get this game to the players 🤙🕹️📈

@ThePlant nah but I can fav and reply

Why telling an indie dev to "make a different/better game" as a business advice meets with such strong resistance, sometimes even animosity?
Do y'all really just want to make ONE SPECIFIC GAME and nothing else?
I understand that it might be disrespectful of someone's effort when put in the way I did it in the first sentence...
But this is by far the BEST way for us indie devs to get visibility (and sales). Some games just look more interesting and shareworthy than others.

Do I have lots of tasks to complete today? Sure. Do I instead fixate on creating a perfect spreadsheet once again? Of course I do.

@aks@scalie.zone High five, tinkering with Linux _games_ resulted in my dream job and kickstarter my career!
Replying to
@yora Both! But also I'll answer your question with my question:
Do you want your game to be seen by many people or not?
Replying to
@dianea@lgbtqia.space @IngaLovinde@embracing.space well said! here is a picture of my cat Leia

@0x0961h Exactly! Listen to the people you make your game for and they will help you make it better

@landelare I suggest maybe looking into the Steam Hardware Survey? And seeing what's the bottom line there
And I suspect there are hobbyist databases like that (data collected by ProtonDB comes to mind) that can help too

@0x0961h Having people react to it (more) positively
Replying to
@0x0961h Any audience
Just when I think they stopped updating that one singleplayer game that's been around for over a decade and I can finally play 100% of the content in peace they suddenly announce even more content. Where does it end, The Long Dark, Terraria, Stardew Valley, Kingdoms & Castles, Skyrim?!
