Liam @ GamingOnLinux 🐧🎮A really annoying thing that absolutely needs to stop:
- "More info in the discord!" / "Changelog in the Discord!"
STOP THAT.
Discord is a closed, proprietary platform. Post your stuff on the actual open web where more people will see it.
Vee@gamingonlinux imma ask a stupid question but... how? Not everyone on discord has tech knowledge to do that, you know? So if you post a problem post the solution and it'll be much more effective....
Ian@VeroniqueB99 @gamingonlinux I think he's referring to game developers etc., i.e. people who already have project websites.
@tnbp @gamingonlinux oh ok. Thanks and sorry!
@VeroniqueB99 if people are competent enough to:
- Use Discord
- Have a project that needs a changelog
They will already know how to post it in public elsewhere

And, I'd add, if they somehow don't know, it will be worthwhile to learn how to do so!
It's very easy and takes little time nowadays!

@gamingonlinux 👍 got it.
Gavin@gamingonlinux @VeroniqueB99 not to mention, if they already have a place where they can put the text “read the change log on Discord” then they already have a perfect place to post the change log. Whether that’s a blog, a press release, a GitHub release, a mailing list, whatever. The change log should just be in the thing I’m *already reading*.
antimu0n 🤘 metal lynx ♿ 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️@[email protected] @[email protected] not a stupid question... keep in mind we're talking about people making videogames, you would assume if they can do that they'll be able to handle a website, or know someone who can. But even if not: post it on the games' steam or itch.io page, those are public and searchable!
@antimu0n @gamingonlinux right. Sorry!
