6/9 On the other hand, Threads has been surprinsingly receptive to this kind of content, haven a great audience discussing the new posts. And the views skyrocketed (in comparason).

5/9 First of all, the test will still run in other platforms but I'm closing it for bsky. It was a blunder on my part not to realize that many people ran away from Twitter because of the AI issue and the terms of service. So bsky is aggersively reluctant to see IA slop.

As an indie dev, the recent news about Steam's delayed response to harassment campaigns and review bombing is... concerning. This story on r/gamedev is a stark reminder of the vulnerabilities indie developers face. Nine months of silence from Steam after a massive review bomb? #gamedev

Watching a 40-minute 'How to build a base' tutorial vs. actually trying to build it in-game. 🤡 Phase 1: taking notes. Phase 2: 'Wait, why doesn't my menu look like his?' Phase 3: Alt-F4. We’ve all been there. The gap between theory and execution is the final boss of gaming. #gamedev #meme
