Ludumdare theme idea:
Pick an old game cover and make a game based on it. Or an old screenshot from a magazine.

this is important to note: if you come across a Discord CDN url outside of discord, please please please archive it.
this is eight years worth of files we're talking about.
all of it becoming inaccessible outside of discord.

Why you should use Firefox:

1. Freedom from Chromium/Blink monopoly
2. FOSS web browser
3. Fast and customizable
4. Great UI/UX
5. VERY stable compared to a lot of Chrome clones
6. Supports extensions that clean up the web and block ads very well
7. If it feels too slow, try betterfox's fastfox user script
8. idk I just find it cool
9: it has a fox mascot (I added this one because of popular demand and because I completely forgot about it)

genuinely think discord has done way more harm than good and its only for 2 reasons

-discord server culture and the way it operates means it's rife with child abuse and exploitation, and just generally promotes really unhealthy interactions and attention-seeking behaviour

-the amount of people who dont upload their files anywhere else and treat it like it's a forum or file host (which can just be entirely deleted and lost in the blink of an eye)

If you help to run a convention, either as staff or as a volunteer I need your help! I have been given the rare opportunity to present at LoNAP's 25th anniversary, and my chosen topic is "What it takes to run a convention". If you have any interesting insights or anecdotes, please let me know! I have just under a month to prepare.

I had to do it...

I've updated my post on the subject.

since bandcamp's future is uncertain i'm bringing back blamscamp (by @suricrasia ). it lets you make an in-browser player for your album that you can put on itch.io! it's pretty easy and straightforward to use and works just fine. you can sell music on itch BTW

I may be preaching to the choir here, but I just posted this over on the Blue site. I think it's something important for indie creators, event coordinators, and other people looking to reach an audience to consider!
