Mads KjeldgaardI just realized how much effort I have put into making my #SuperCollider packages as user-friendly as possible over the years, and how little it actually seems to matter in practice (maybe it matters a lot and I just never hear from anyone using those packages? I dunno...). It's not that I am looking for gratitude or pity or any celebration of this work, but it genuinely seems like wasted time since those user-friendly things are never used it seems. Another reason I down-prioritize open-source.
Luka Prin/ce Lucija@madskjeldgaard I love your portedplugins. I wanna thank you for them, they bring such much nice sound to my sounds. 😃
vvm@madskjeldgaard It's sad to hear you feel that way, because your work with #SuperCollider was really helpful and inspiring to me. so I'd like to thank you for it!
teledyn 𓂀Van Gogh would say he was "painting for the future" 😏
I seriously broke my audio tool chain last Nov and still don't have it right, that and a mess of other things have kept me from sclang experiments. So if it's possible, please do hang on a month or two more? 🙏😌
David@madskjeldgaard portedplugins is great - norns has a really good ecosystem of shared modules and feedback/appreciation with lines - i do wish there was more of that with #supercollider and scsynth.org - supercollider kinda demands you create your own idiom which i think becomes deeply personal and hard to share at times
rbxbx@madskjeldgaard i don't know that i've ever used your packages personally but rest assured these easy onroads are HUGELY beneficial to people new to the ecosystem.
it's somewhat thankless work but i imagine new folx in particular don't necessarily realize it's a two way conversation.
thanks for all you do 🙏
nintegge@madskjeldgaard in an odd way this is a compliment. User-friendly stuff often is forgotten, because it worked seamlessly. People tend to speak out about the things they have issues with. (When was the last time someone mentioned clean tap water for example?) That being said … thank you for your work and contributions <3 :)
semiquaver@nintegge @madskjeldgaard I have found your contributions **crucial** to my workflow - most particularly your stuff with Nvim and Treesitter - but of course the Ported Plugins too. You are one of the few actually keeping supercollider alive. Keep the faith!
