Yep I used that in university for generative art. It was a lot of fun and actually got me into coding unlike many failed attempts before that.

I came from Nextnews which was great (but works only with nextcloud)

I made that app! Glad you liked it and I wish I had more time for it.

Just block it, there’s a bunch of scandals surrounding them and when covid just started, I reported a covid misinformation blog to them that they hosted and they replied they see nothing wrong with it and won’t remove it.

This blog probably caused deaths, substack thought it was fine.

Account is new and vaguely crypto related. I‘d say yes.

For an app that made you 300$ / month to begin with

Same here. Never even shot back. Only played a few matches but it’s simply not enjoyable and I didn’t come back to it.

One of my absolute favorite games despite the many frustrating moments. I hope you‘ll stick with it. The fun increases significantly once you get the hang of it.

LLMs often fail at the simplest tasks. Just this week I had it fail multiple times where the solution ended up being incredibly simple and yet it couldn’t figure it out. LLMs also seem to „think“ any problem can be solved with more code, thereby making the project much harder to maintain.

LLMs won’t replace programmers anytime soon but I can see sketchy companies taking programming projects by scamming their clients through selling them work generated by LLMs. I‘ve heard multiple accounts of this already happening and similar things happened with no code solutions before.

There are plenty of good Jellyfin players too. I‘m currently using Discrete and I‘m quite happy with it.

I thought you must be wrong but it seems there really is no explicit law about it and current freedom of expression laws have been introduced by the EU in 1998.

I started by going from full time employment to part time employment / part time freelance. When I had too much to do with the freelance job plus a few clients ready for new projects, I quit my job and went full time freelance. That’s the safest way if you don’t wanna risk your savings.

So far it’s working out quite well. I got a steady stream of work from about 10 clients and some odd projects without follow-up work every now and then.

It can be stressful sometimes but once you manage to be more selective with projects, it’s all right.

Reminds me of people who described themselves as „no code developers“ before the whole AI hype when they were using stuff like webflow. This job title always bothered me and made me think they were afraid of code or something since making a similar site with a good CMS is not complicated and scales much better and I couldn’t see why you would wanna go full no-code.

I‘m using a hosted Nextcloud instance from Hetzner and I have no idea what this is running on either. There’s a significant number of people who didn’t set up their Nextcloud instance, so people not knowing what it’s running on isn’t too surprising.

Is there anything that generates half-way decent UIs? All I‘ve used was pretty much trash.

Bro can you fix my broken vibe coded app?

I got kinda caught up in Dig Dig Dino but to be honest, I‘m lagging behind in giving the newer games a fair shot since the release of the Switch 2 has distracted me slightly

The reason people use Electron in the first place is that they wanna share a codebase between web, desktop and possibly mobile.

While Flutter can technically do that, the web apps it outputs are atrocious with poor usability and accessibility. It’s drawing the whole UI on a canvas element which causes all kinds of issues.

I didn’t try out a Tauri app on linux yet, I just know that it’s generally supported. What doesn’t work (well) as of now?

For anyone considering Electron: take a look at Tauri. It’s another way to build cross-platform apps with web tech. It will use the OS‘s web rendering engine instead of shipping Chromium which results in much smaller binaries and faster startup times and less RAM usage. You can also write native code in Rust. It’s like Electron but good.

It’s also great for solving issues when you’re stuck. Not because of its superior reasoning skills but it can solve beginner issues and write you a list of things to try when it doesn’t know the answer right away. It’s like a rubber duck that will talk back.
