@thepaperpilot um… it looks like kbin.social doesn’t federate with incremental.social and i can’t subscribe to it yet?

oh wow! congrats on prestiging the incremental gaming community!

i’m a big fan of Free/Libre/Open Source games and that includes a lot of incremental games (Trimps, Structure, AD, Fundamental, etc).
i don’t have any accounts on corporate social media (like Reddit/Discord) so a more open incremental game community is a welcome change.
hopefully developers will add a “join Matrix room” button instead of asking you to sign up for Discord.

i started making a little incremental TIC-80 game a while back and maybe i’ll actually finish it now that there’s a community i can share it with.

Without Microsoft, TypeScript would not exist.

I’m not sure you are aware, but TypeScript is not the first language to compile to JavaScript.

Without TypeScript, people would have adopted a different JS transpiler, one that isn’t controlled by a monopolistic corporation with a history of extinguishing open source projects.

It’s a meme. This image shows a lemmy user asking a highly technical question and a caption saying that that is the least technical user, implying that all other lemmy users are even more technical.

Or you could stick to software that doesn’t need lawyers or licensing or eulas or negotiations.

If you use Godot, you actually own your copy of the game engine, can do whatever you want with it, and aren’t waiting for some corporation to do crazy nonsense like unity did.

I asked you to not conflate cops that kill innocent people with EMTs that save people and your response is to conflate cops that kill innocent people with women and children in ukraine? Really?

You don’t need to develop a callous to gruesome scenes if you don’t cause gruesome scenes.

“unfortunate situation that they can not change” except by not driving over people at 70mph.

Don’t conflate cops with EMTs. The job of EMTs is to save lives.

Stockholm Syndrome isn’t a real thing.

“Stockholm Syndrome” was invented by police to discredit a female hostage

If the prime minister told me “You will have to content yourself that you will have died at your post” I wouldn’t trust the authorities either. Being a bank teller shouldn’t mean you have to die for your employer or for the police.

I’ve never used inoreader, but Wikipedia lists it as “Freemium”. It’s not FOSS

learn an actually useful language like toki pona

Owncast is an open source streaming platform. It’s great for watch parties and it has its own built-in chat.

You can see a list of public streams in the Owncast Directory

o kepeken e nimi “taso”:

ona li wile moku, taso ona li moku ala.

mi wile e musi, taso mi esun ala e musi.

Or, you can break it into 2 sentences:

ona li wile moku. taso, ona li moku ala.

mi wile e musi. taso, mi esun ala e musi.

As for your second example, maybe

moku la moku ni li pona. (this food is good in the context of other food; the idea that this is your opinion is implicit here)
moku la moku ni li pona tawa mi.

For those who don’t know, the strategy is called Embrace, Extend, and Extinguish. The phase comes from Microsoft who used this to (try to) crush competing document editors, Java implementations, browsers, and operating systems. Other big tech companies employ similar strategies.

Facebook coming to the Fediverse is the Embrace phase of this process and that makes Mastodon, Lemmy, Kbin, Misskey, and Akkoma the competitors.
