The amateur game dev community is thriving like never before. Itch.io has become Newgrounds on steroids, full of incredibly creative, fun and free games.

People like to complain about what has been lost on the modern internet, without spending any time actually looking and trying out the new niches.

    Exactly. A physical card is simply better in every single way. Imagine the stress when your phone inevitably dies, if you are out traveling and suddenly you have no access to money or communication. Screw that.

    Intuition is based on experience i guess. Blender was the first non-CAD modelling software i used, and i quickly learned that the search tool in blender is the primary UI gateway. Made everything really quick and easy to find, and any questions I have had was answered by the great community around Blender.

    I have two nice speakers in my office, that have to be connected using aux. My shitty Windows work laptop only has USB-C, so the aux is plugged into a little converter thingy. It sometimes crashes the fuck out, and plays white noise at max volume until replugged. Tried the same setup from my private laptop running NixOS. Absolutely no issues at all.

    Thanks to the behaviour of the American Government the past year, it has become really easy. Everybody suddenly understand and respect the argument of boycotting american products and software.
