I am a technical and strategic founder developer experienced in web3, software engineering and building startups over the past 10 years.

I operate at the senior software engineer to CTO level, and am able to develop a company's "zero to one" product.

  • Eh its fair enough, but the actual process of OSS isn't much different to just working software at a job.

    Now finding a project to get your teeth stuck in, that's a bit harder. But that's less a technical skill and more about having enough introspection to figure out what you'd like to work on for free haha

  • I'm a filthy Australian so I still can't buy it in stores here... :(

  • Maybe Steam Deck users are more prone to leaving reddit or something.

  • I mean, instances federating against each other is sorta webrings but on steroids right

  • I love how they stuck with the 90s design

  • We need webrings brought back

  • Wow actual people

  • I think it would be more like reddit if there was a single super Lemmy instance, the extra layer of self hosting confuses everyone

  • This is an unusual question, but how have you been programming for four years and not know how OSS works?

    Don’t you interact regularly with GitHub for work?

  • Crazy to think that reddit gold has been around for ten years

  • I mean “text based social media” is basically forums right?

  • Thanks! Didn't even know it existed. I guess its one of the things that's hard to figure out from the readme (no mention of who is the creator, or which socials, or which communities etc).

    I'll probably submit a PR later today...

  • That's lame. I just run my own instance. I'm based in Perth and the server itself is in Sydney, so nice and fast.

  • Nice! I can dev on the toilet now

  • Related note, pictrs is super cool. Its like an OSS imgur backend, but no one really talks much about it or its potential.

  • Yep, so now its very difficult to run your own mailserver. Extrapolating this to Lemmy, I guess large instances will start autoblocking small instances by default.

  • What were the federation issues with aussie.zone?

  • I mean, I haven't even played 15 so I guess I was out of the loop in the first place. Battle system looks great tho

  • Let me grieve, man!

  • Maybe same reason why I link people to Reddit posts instead of the article.
