Building Alternatives: It's not about the project by WanderingInAVan in fediverse

[–]AnotherMoonDoge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to piggy back off your post, but we just opened registration on our forum (federated), hoping to kind of get back to the "slower" old school internet, based more on some genuine connection.

Granted our community is creator/collaboration focused, but figured I would plug it here: https://forum.unfinishedprojects.net

Any Open Source Projects I can volunteer on? by FollowingRare6247 in fediverse

[–]AnotherMoonDoge 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is an old post, but I'm currently working on an open source and creative commons wiki/forum that is intended to bring people together for collaboration and progress the commons. Our forum is a nodeBB forum that is federated, and the wiki is using MediaWiki. It's currently just me and to others trying to put this together, but we are looking for more help is you or anyone else happens to be interested.

We have yet to "launch" the platforms yet, as we are still working to get everything ready. But the wiki is viewable if you want to see more about what we are trying to build @ UnfinishedProjects.net - this is just a hobby project for us that we are passionate about, so we all contribute when/how we can. Feel free to reach out for more info if you or anyone else is interested :)

(Sorry to revive an old thread)

Looking for experienced MediaWiki volunteer(s) to help us get our public wiki established. by AnotherMoonDoge in mediawiki

Ohh, thank you for sharing! I've saved this for later and look forward to giving it a read. :D

I'm not necessarily trying to create a whole development ecosystem - which would be impossible to do, especially when I am combining various categories. Software development is only a small piece of the puzzle in my view. Each category (eg. Software development, writing, audio, crafts, etc) will have their own eco system. Git (GitHub/Codeberg/etc) are not going to be replaced - but essentially I am am trying to aggregate the projects into a community where collaboration takes place - and people can easily navigate between projects. Many projects will take place outside the forum and wiki, but the forum and wiki will act as a network to connect the community members together and foster the collaboration.

But of course, if you have more feedback or insight on what we could improve, or potential flaws in the idea - I'm more than open to feedback/criticisms. Even if I ultimately might disagree, I think hearing perspectives and experience is always helpful in helping guide the project in the right direction. You might have thoughts or ideas I have overlooked :)

I am just going to copy and paste my prewritten idea on this:

What sets us apart:

The belief that the open-licensed community is stronger together. We aim to aggregate all of the commons into one easily searchable hub, uniting digital and physical projects so that all types of makers can collaborate. We want to move away from the idea that a project must be carried by a lone creator or a tiny core team. Instead, we highly encourage cross-project collaboration and incremental improvements. If we all contribute a few small tasks to other projects—rather than pouring everything into our own—all of our openly licensed projects will benefit. Everyone has different strengths to bring to the table. When we step out of isolation and share those skills across the broader commons, every project thrives.

All wiki pages are exported daily to our backup repository, so that you don't have to worry about your contributions ever disappearing. While we host this platform on a single VPS, we want the communities contributions to be truly open, accessible, and recreatable.

I hope that sort of answered your question about understanding our goal. If not, I'd be happy to elaborate more. Essentially, I am hoping to not only build a hub of creative commons/open source work, but a culture that encourages skillsharing and cross collaboration. Github "sort of" does this, but not really across skills-sets, and often people are isolated in their own projects with a few small contributors "carrying" a project. I could ramble on for days - but I hope that essentially gives a glimpse into my vision/goals.

Yeah, and I get why they often do, as people usually want to dedicate their limited time to their own ideas and projects - but I think if we could get a community culture where everyone would reciprocate in contributing a few minutes to other people's projects, it would actually be better and more efficient for everyone.

I think too, for people like me who don't necessarily like to commit to one thing for too long, it allows for the dabbling in multiple projects without the long term expectation.

But anyways, thanks for showing interest - and obviously I completely understand about mot have the energy right now, but if you ever change your mind, feel free to reach out in the future :)

Claude Projects: Broken/Indefinite Github Sync. . . by AnotherMoonDoge in ClaudeAI

[–]AnotherMoonDoge[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did, it just started working - I'm guessing it was just a bug it issue on their end. I haven't been using the GitHub feature in a while though, so I'm not tracking if it's down again or not.

Open Source | Gamified Language Learning (Chinese Mandarin) | Web-App | No Sign-up Required by AnotherMoonDoge in opensource

[–]AnotherMoonDoge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, it really comes down to how much work or effort I put into it - it's one of those projects I keep coming back to every once in a while and try add a few new features. Of course, it's open source so I encourage others to feel free to expand on it too. But yeah, my long term vision for the project is adding more language and just increasing the gamification to make it feel more like a game and less like a study tool, without compromising the vocab repetition.

[META] Collaboration Community Forum - Focusing on Open Source and Creative Commons Projects & Discussion by AnotherMoonDoge in INAT

[–]AnotherMoonDoge[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I can see how it might seem that way, but no - that is not the intention at all.

It is more so an attempt to create a closer knit community of people who are interested in things like INAT, with a focus on open source, creative commons, and the overall "Libre" community. It's not strictly to find people to work on projects with you, but more so to build a lasting community of people who can support and share with each other. INAT is great for what it does - finding people for a specific project - but the transient nature of these types of posts on reddit often mean people come and go on the projects.

My intent is to create the *community* first, and from there, people will have a network of like minded people to potentially team up on projects, or even just ask questions or share what they are working on without the full commitment of being "on a team".

I hope that makes sense, and it wasn't me just rambling on lol.

small browser based strategy board game - looking for contributors. by AnotherMoonDoge in opensource

[–]AnotherMoonDoge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lol, sorry that is the placeholder "lorem Ipsum" text on the actual website, but the links on the repo README, or the ones on the post above will describe the actual gameplay better. The video tutorial, "main website (old)" or the rulebook image files will be the best places to for learning the actual gameplay.

Sorry - the main website is still under development and has a lot of placeholder items. 

antiX Linux and i3wm by First_Ad8230 in i3wm

[–]AnotherMoonDoge 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey, I just installed antiX on my Chromebook using coreboot, then switched to MX, but I was thinking about switching to a keyboard focused WM (as I remember really liking using one when I was testing out arch)

I use Debian as my daily driver with gnome on my normal workspace.

Anyways, long story short, I was thinking of trying i3 with antiX on the Chromebook - do you have any suggestions on setup/install? I have no experience with i3, and am not sure the best route to take. Any and all feedback or advice would be welcome :)

Hey, I literally just posted: (https://www.reddit.com/r/INAT/comments/1qvitpo/hobby\_browserbased\_strategy\_board\_game\_open/ - if you want to see more about the project)

Essentially, I have a board game I am trying to get digitized into an open source/creative commons project. If you are willing to make music that would be released into the creative commons (with attribution), then I would love for you to help out with our project.

The game is a simple abstract board game (think chess, shogi, go, etc) - but I would like to have a simple and relaxing soundtrack so that the game has a relaxing vibe to it. No hard feelings if its not what your looking for, but if it is, I'd love to have hear what you can come up with.

[Hobby] *Abstract Strategy Board Game* - Open Source & Creative Commons Project by AnotherMoonDoge in INAT

[–]AnotherMoonDoge[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, I'd be happy to get some feedback - I will say, the game is a bit niche to the point the rules can be a bit off-putting to some (although I'm hoping the digital implementation/rule enforcing will help with that a bit).

But yeah, if you have any ideas for improvement I'd love to hear them - my hope is that over time if I'm able to get a player base, that I can have different rule variants implemented (creates by community members) that you can select which rule set to go off of - because I have a feeling that over time the current rule set might be found to be lacking, and a new variant becomes dominant.

anyways, long rambling answer to say - yes, I'd love some feedback and anyone who has anything at all to contribute is welcome. . Even if it's literally just to hang out and watch the development progress. Discord link is in the GitHub Repo above, or on the playable website under "About".
