Game server engineer. Opinions are my own.
@steve_zeke @Sarahp So your solution is... no solution? If "just ignore them" worked, then we wouldn't be having this conversation.
Open yourself up to some empathy and realize that it's not a viable strategy for everyone, especially when it's constant and endemic to social media platforms. "Reply guys" are a problem for any community that aims to be welcoming to women (or anyone else).
yoasifI'm quoted in this piece on the #redditMigration https://www.theverge.com/2023/6/29/23778997/reddit-remove-mods-private-communities-unless-reopen
Follow me for updates on what happens with our #firefox community on #reddit... or the migration to #lemmy and #kbin (and others!).
Reddit is going to remove mods of private communities unless they reopen
Reddit has informed moderators of communities that are still private in protest that they will lose their mod status by the end of the week. Thousands of communities went dark earlier this month to push back on the company’s planned API pricing changes.
The #redditblackout has moved to a new stage... from a two day blackout to indefinitely shutting down... to people moving away entirely.
Yes, r/startrek has lifted off from #reddit and moved to #lemmy -- and with it, a realization that we need an easy way to help people find their new, old communities that have moved from reddit to #lemmy #kbin and whatever else pops up.
I started a quick and dirty list that you can share and contribute to (PRs welcome!).

Rod HiltonHe talked about electric cars. I don't know anything about cars, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything about rockets, so when people said he was a genius I figured he must be a genius.
Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a genius I figure I should stay the hell away from his cars and rockets.
@jsatk It's getting a little older now, but I found the book "Practical Common Lisp" by Peter Seibel was excellent for learning Common Lisp. It includes some project ideas that should be helpful.
Hello, Mastodon, especially the denizens of gamedev.place!
I'm a software engineer with a focus on servers based out of #Massachusetts, currently employed at the cold weather company. I've worked in #GameDev for about 13 years, with another decade before that in web development.
