definitely agree. I don’t control our host’s policy but i will pass that along. some bot traffic is allowed- we were on the join-lemmy site two days ago and i have a bot running this very minute- i think they’re still just trying to dial in the right balance between two much and not enough security

are manual additions allowed? our host’s security blocks some bot traffic and is currently not playing nicely with the stats crawler

I’m running See You Space Cowboy tomorrow and then playing in a fantasy hack of it on Thursday. sure is easy keeping track of mechanics that way! i’ve also got a copy of Blueholme (holmes basic dnd retroclone) i’m dying to run eventually

The Steam version of Sonic Adventure is a bad port of a bad port, but just downloading the mod manager itself undoes one of those bads and the Dreamcast Conversion mod undoes the other, and that’s not even getting into the crazy stuff people have done like hack Klonoa and their mechanics into the game

if you have a few members may as well keep it open, we all benefit from variety

I can tell you that the api itself can be found at instance.com/api/v3/, and that you can for example get recent posts with instance.com/api/v3/post/list, and you can replace post with community or comment to get the same, but I learned that much from error messages messing with lemmy-js-client. unfortunately i don’t think the raw http api is posted anywhere

I’m very envious of people who were able to grow up with BBSes. I caught the very tail end of the phpBB/MyBB days but this seems like a whole 'nother level. it’s nice to know they’re still kicking though- one of these days i’ll finally get a network cart and join the fray

i really want AR to take off but bigger devices with higher price tags is probably not the way

3D platformers are seeing a bit of a resurgence on the indie level at least which is pretty exciting. In particular I’d recommend the Spark the Electric Jester series (although the 1st is 2D) and Lunistice in particular

I liked Balan Wonderworld. i didn’t love it, but i certainly don’t understand the hate- I haven’t ran into any bugs, some of the powers were neat, the music was phenomenal, and the simple controls were a selling point for me. it was like playing a new Dreamcast game in 2023 for better or for worse, another Billy Hatcher or something.

it was a nice try but i just don’t see a market for a centralized mastodon clone
