- Comment on Patient gamers, which games have you discovered/played this week? 1 week ago:
I’ve only played the demo of Darkest Dungeon 2 so no idea about the changes, I liked the cart riding segment, it’s a fun way to take breaks between battles, I’ll take a look !
- Comment on Patient gamers, which games have you discovered/played this week? 1 week ago:
I’m playing Hidden Folks (2017) on Steam Deck, to chill in the evening, it’s probably the best where’s waldo game on steam ? I don’t find the cats series is at all engaging
I also reinstalled Darkest Dungeon (2016), this time for sure I will commit to it and not stop after 3 runs 🤡
- Comment on Game of the day - Return of the Obra Dinner - did you enjoy it? 2 weeks ago:
I LOVED it but at that time I was not patient enough to be curious about the various clues, and investigate everything available to explore. I ended up looking for some hints on the net instead of trying harder. It’s one of the best investigative games released. I still prefer Outer Wilds and Golden Idol, but Obra Dinn has such strong narration.
- Comment on Patient gamers, what are your favorite OSTs? 2 weeks ago:

Bastion (2011) composed by Darren Korb (anything by Darren Korb)
- Comment on Monthly Recommendations Thread: What are you playing? 2 weeks ago:
Death Crown (2019)
It’s as if a 4x was stripped down to the essentials, just you and the map and three building types, the gameplay is basically “try to overwhelm the enemy” and zerg rushing has been my winning strategy so far. Love the aesthetic though.
Narita Boy (2021)
I first played it close to release, but got bored of the story after a while, rediscovering this one on Steam Deck, the controls and combat has surprising depth !

Interesting thing from the jobs descriptions:

Good luck with your community, I’m planning to go to Riga in summer 2025 for a concert, hopefully it does not get postponed (i was supposed to go in 2022 lol)
- Comment on Steam Next Fest - October 2024 edition is now live with lots of demos 5 weeks ago:
Not necessarily, I think Steam only allows demos that have not previously been featured in Next Fest, but some have demos that were available before the event started.
Demos can totally be available outside, but some devs prefer to feature their demo during the event, it’s kind of a marketing step before release
- Comment on Steam Next Fest - October 2024 edition is now live with lots of demos 5 weeks ago:
For events/sales on Steam in general, it’s an opportunity for Publishers to showcase their games through events disguised as “sales”.
For the Steam Next Fest in particular, it’s an opportunity for Developers to show their upcoming games, and you get an absurd amount of demos available to play, for free!
For me, the Next Fest is a nice way to find interesting games, see what the indie scene has to offer, and have access to free games I can play in short sessions. Every edition, I download around 50 demos, and try to play them throughout the week (and the following week because some are still available after the event ends)

- Comment on How is Open Source developed paid? 2 months ago:
Oh wow thanks for the correction, I’ll edit my comment
- Comment on How is Open Source developed paid? 2 months ago:
Most open source projects will have a donation page / link, so it relies on people feeling compelled to donate because the software provided is useful to them.
Lemmy for example has options for financially supporting its development. Some Lemmy instances also feature a link to a donation page to cover the hosting costs.
Some have an organisation behind it, like Firefox has the Mozilla Foundation to finance it.
The team behind VLC has a “for profit” branch that adapts the video software for companies, allowing them to also finance VLC’s development in addition to donations.

I believe this one still works because it is designed for screen reader users, so they’re not paying for the API dings because of accessibility

I have a question, I’m guessing it’s not using Reddit 's API, so how does it fetch the content, just scrapping?

Hey thanks ! Ideally the songs have been released in the last 12 months (= past hear or so), but it’s not a hard rule so jan 1st 2023 is more of a “general earliest limit” haha
