Regarding sublinks and feeling concerned about what is going on with it in c/fediverse@lemmy.world
[–] Ategon@programming.dev 7 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago)

Nothing would change about the community itself if it goes from lemmy to sublinks. Still accessible on the federation as normal and on version 0.1 the core features should have parity

Reposting my comment I did before:

Sublinks is a drop in replacement for lemmy. In version 0.1 nothing should really be different between the two apart from the default UI looking different

For world Ruud commented about that before and nothings been decided currently on theyre going to handle it (I assume youll see some sort of post in their meta community way before anything happens)

[–] Ategon@programming.dev 11 points 7 months ago* (last edited 7 months ago) (2 children)

I'm working on the frontend for it rather than the backend so I'll comment more about that

But a new project allows for way easier change of the base aspects. For example im currently working on a theme system thats allows for dynamic themes created at runtime as opposed to it needing to be built in. Also a components library. If this was added onto lemmy ui it would involve massacring the current structure of the UI to essentially make it a new project anyways

Originally was working on the stuff in a new UI on my own but I've merged that into what's happening with sublinks since they're making a new UI anyways as well and would let more of my UI changes to get connected up to the backend easily and shared across multiple frontends

In terms of technologies it also allows the federation code to be completely separated out from the api. Federation is currently its own project so it can be scaled separately and its made in go

Also allows for more organizational changes since we have more control over how the project is structured and the structure of how we talk to each other and decide on changes is different than how its done with lemmy (having a matrix space we talk to each other and there being weekly meetings as well)

Moderation tools is the first milestone after parity but theres also other milestones as well in terms of changes made that differentiates it from lemmy visible on our task board thats public on the github repo

Normal thats theres going to be multiple of the same type of software as people have different goals of what it should be and how it should be organized. Bevy and godot both exist in the open source gamedev space. Theres 7 misskey forks that all mostly aim to do different things but share the misskey api (and a lot of them also use the mastodon api). One of which (iceshrimp) is currently having a rewrite to change the tech stack and make it easier for them to add features

I dont know what youre concerned about relating to it but

Threads can't see lemmy content either, its two different message types and they don't have handling for the one lemmy uses

(They also don't pull posts at all, only outbound federation is implemented in threads rn)

The Mistral bot here on Lemmy now remembers context in c/auai@programming.dev
[–] Ategon@programming.dev 1 points 7 months ago

Last one was a release of a new technology involving AI so would say its fine just on the edge, this ones just a small update post though

Im not modding here though. Could cross post it to lemmy dev regardless, doesnt hurt

[–] Ategon@programming.dev 2 points 7 months ago (3 children)

The mod here is inactive from the site so they arent managing this as much but I think this is less AUAI content and more !lemmy_dev@programming.dev content since its an update post on a lemmy bot as opposed to AI discussion

Were defederated from threads due to the community vote that voted to do so

As well, Lemmy cant view threads posts so even if this instance was federated with threads theres another thing stopping it and that is stopping every other instance from viewing all of the content (comments to lemmy posts show up but nothing else atm)

Ive been working on some game tools to let me make various games quicker without needing to do the same things in every game i make

Above you can see two of them ^ Ive got an achievement system implemented as well as a toolbar that lets you trigger things easily for testing purposes (e.g. giving the player a weapon, spawning an enemy, etc.)

Theres a data persisting system that will persist data in different scopes (e.g. room, level, run, game, permanent) that everything else uses. For example the achievement system looks at a certain category and a trigger (which is a key that the data in the persister is set under) so that whenever data is added to that trigger it sees if its higher than the amount needing to unlock the achievement (and if so unlocks it). The persister is decoupled from everything else by sending signals and then everything that wants to look at what data is set can (this would be the achievements, the unlock system, the dialogue system to see which dialogue is unlocked, etc.)

Main tools I have made:

  • palette swapping (allows for swapping the palette of the game so that things like each zone can have different colors)
  • unlocks (what weapons, enemies, etc. are unlocked)
  • toolbar (debug helping)
  • persister (persists data through a scope)
  • logger (logs information (separate so other components can show the logs e.g. the toolbar or a terminal)
  • leaderboard (keeps track of scores of players)
  • data (reads txt files from a data folder for usage in the rest of the game for separation of data and behaviours. e.g. you can define enemies each in their own txt file and have a generic enemy object that has its properties set based on the enemy it is. Makes it so you can easily add new stuff

Yeah could try to implement it at one point after parity and moderation is reached in it/sublinks

[Closed] Looking for mods for c/cs_career_questions (programming.dev)

This community is currently admin run and doesnt have a dedicated mod team. Recently been getting a bit more activity

I just went through and updated the sidebar for the community to give more of a description about it. If youre interested feel free to say so below

!cs_career_questions@programming.dev

Note: to be a mod its preferred if your account is within the instance since lemmy doesnt handle cross-instance modding that well and this makes it so you have access to features added to pangora that other instances may not have

Animation Testing (files.catbox.moe)
 

Doing some testing with animations for the site

All pages have a little fade in effect with the content by default when switched to to ease the transition a bit

The donation page I also added some custom swipe in effects to

Will eventually be adding handling for prefers-reduced-motion to disable the swipe in effects although not in currently

There may be some changes to how I organize the repos to rename Pangora-UI to pangora and the backend to something else

More info in the future though

Programming.Dev Banner and Logo Submissions! (programming.dev)
submitted 11 months ago* (last edited 11 months ago) by Ategon@programming.dev to c/meta@programming.dev
7 comments fedilink
 

Hey everyone! Been a bit since the instance has been created (and 0.19 is dropping soon) so figured it was time to update the logo and banner to look a bit nicer

The current logo is made using fira code and the banner is a quick one made by snowe

The banner though tends to not look great when text is overlayed on it in certain apps due to it being text on text and it doesn't stand out that well due to it just being black

Submissions

You can submit new logos or banners below that you think would be good for the instance. After around a week theyll be collected together and then ill run a vote for which ones people like the most

Please only submit stuff you have a proper license to use (either you made it or its something such as CC0)

If you submit something you acknowledge that we can then use that for the instance

Current Icon & Banner

Ill be adding in the current icon and banner into the vote as well when im running that if people like them better than the new options

Other misc things

  • Voting will be most likely ranked voting. I can try to create a web page that will handle voting so people can vote by logging into their p.d account and then voting with that
  • You can submit as much as you want, just if someone is spamming way to many similar things ill limit the amount that is put in the voting section

📌Ill be pinning this post in the instance for a couple days, then will pin the vote when that happens
