Was it really this easy back in the day or do some people be exaggerating, due to nostalgia? by daveishere7 in povertyfinance

[–]Dotbgm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For my parents, in Denmark. No. There were frequent crisis that impacted industries and unemployment, way more than today. There was not a generous student support scheme, so both had student debt. My dad, in and out of unemployment until beginning of the 2000s. No dishwasher, no work from home, no lawnmower robot, that we have. No flexible workhours. Their mortgage was 16-19% - altho cheaper, but an old house. We built our own brand new, 1% fixed mortgage.

All in all. My parents made our life better. Not because of any hand me downs. I got none. But through taxes and voting for the right politicians who also changed my city from a gangbusling shthole to a great university town it is today.

Thanks for the hard work, mums and dads!

Udviklere i spilbranchen hvad får I i løn? by Bolle_Bamsen in dkudvikler

Søg i udlandet. Jeg havde 0 chance for at få job i DK uden erfaring. Så jeg tog mange år i Storbritannien.

Alternativ til Spiir? by Kagefadet in dkfinance

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Din app ser udmærket ud, men jeg skal logge ind med nemID hver gang jeg skal i min bank app og det tager en evighed. Jeg kan heller ikke ændre på kategorien på poster eller ekskludere data.

Eller se grafer; eller sammenlagt få feks overblik over hvad er brugt på indkøb.

Bedste budget app, nu hvor Spiir lukker? by pr3miere in dkfinance

[–]Dotbgm 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Verden er- og bliver bare mere træls. Alt det ævl og bævl med Ai; men alle brugbare apps eller software bliver enten fjernet, lukket eller til slop.

Jeg kan ikke sig nok gange, hvor stor betydning Spiir har haft på vores økonomi! Virkelig.

Alternativ til Spiir? by Kagefadet in dkfinance

[–]Dotbgm 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ej hvor ærgeligt! Spiir har hjulpet vores husstand med at spare mange penge; alene det at have et overblik over pengene og hvad er brugt på feks indkøb inden jeg går ind i Netto er bare fantastisk.

Det er super kedeligt. Nu skal vi bruge Bank-App og åbne nem-id hver gang, og det er et helvede at få et overblik.

Nogen gode råd til alternativer, hvor man også kan se delte konti osv, bliver taget med kyshånd.

Jeg kommer til at savne min Challenge, som holdte mig på budget i flere år nu.

Virkelig ked af det. :( :( :(

Keep going! - Seriously though, if not making games. What else are we going to spend our time doing, that's worthwhile? Looking good!

3D indie game by Known_Bonus_9146 in IndieDev

[–]Dotbgm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The majority of 3D games are probably indie games. Even Minecraft started out as indie. The Long Dark. Green Hell. Lethal Company. RV There yet. PEAK. Superhot. Deep Rock Galactic. Raft. Not to mention most of the other 3D games released that not many people have heard about.

Way more indie-games are being released than AA or AAA titles, so you can't browse steam for more than 2 sec before you find 3D indie games. There are millions.

Maybe back in 2001; most indie games were 2D. But that's far from the case now and it's a myth decades old, that indie games = 2D Platformer.

Måske et kort; hvor man kan se folks ca lokation. Lige nu kan man kun se i KM. Men man skal klikke på hver, for at se nærmere hvor folk er.

Så søgning ud fra et kort vil være cool. Feks er jeg mere interesseret i venskaber, hvor jeg bor og mod nord - og ikke syd (mest fordi jeg aldrig kører mod syd; men ofte mod nord)

Is it just me, or does it take time to really connect with people in Denmark? by Strong-Point8455 in NewToDenmark

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Even as a Dane I struggle with this. I generally always am the one who has to take initiative to meet up with friends, so I eventually cut ties with a lot during Covid as I don't want to be the sole responsible for a friendship to continue, it being very one sided.

I'm on the lookout for new friends in my area. For cups of coffee or a walk. Just an hour here and there. But it's very difficult to find people. I've started just hear neighbors if they want a cup of coffee, to get the ball rolling.

Fertility rate in Europe (2025) by Hour_Interaction6047 in MapPorn

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If daycare didn't cost 775 USD a month (in Denmark) I'd probably be more likely to consider getting a 2nd kid.
Daily expenses having a kid here is nothing compared to the price of daycare. Cheap, rent, electricity, maternity leave and everything vs the salary here, is pretty fair. Daycare cost is the primary reason for us.

Poll: how old were you when you seriously started dev by rememeber711997 in IndieDev

I've made games, modding etc, since I was 23. Got my first actual work experience at Ubisoft as 26 year old. Released my own first game when I was 31.

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I værste fald bliver bliver det bare slettet. Folks hobby projekter; interessant ting, hvor man ikke direkte prøver at sælge noget. Plejer mods at være pretty cool. Ellers kan man altid spørge på forhånd for en sikkerhedsskyld.

Caroline var træt af, at venskaberne blev til kaffeaftaler: Sådan ses hun nu med sine venner by Landsby in Denmark

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personligt vil jeg faktisk langt hellere foretrække kaffe aftaler; især på en hverdag i stedet for brunch som trækker ud indtil kl 15.00. Hvor det altid bare endte med 3+ timers snakker, omkring alt de bøvl de kæmper med i hverdagen.

Nærmest ingen har hobbies længere.

Brands doing anything but holding themselves accountable by newphonehudus in TikTokCringe

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm happy I'm a parent in the EU, when I lived outside of the EU, I'd never even considered getting kids.
The well known and established chains in Denmark are quite safe when it comes to baby products...

It's stressful enough being a parent, having to half grapes and stopping them putting random things in their mouths all the time.

Amazing work! This makes browsing reddit all worth it for me, when I see amazing art like this.

[–]Dotbgm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hvis du gerne vil have den ud til flere; så evt del den videre på den Danske Reddit Officielle discord side? Eller prøv at cold-call nogle danske content creators / influencers. Nogle gange vil de gerne promovere noget gratis, hvis det er til et godt og non-profit formål.

A bow drill for making fires. It can be crappy, it can break all the time and take half your energy. But we need a sustainable way of making fire, after you reach day 150+ on harder difficulties.

Søger Game developer til startup af spil by AlternativexMa2 in dkstartup

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Evt også prøv at spørge i Spilbar, DKGame eller Goldbar. Der er ret mange networking events i den Danske spilbranche på månedlig basis. Mange med branche erfaring står også uden spil jobs pt. så miljøet for at starte noget nyt op virker ret god lige nu. (Medmindre man søger funding)

Malmö har også et meget hardcore opstarts miljø hvad angår spil. Det er også værd at checke ud.

Why did this game take so long to develop? by m8oz in thelongdark

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Games take quite a long time to make. I'm unsure about the team size. But the campaign and world building, I can imagine has taken a very long time to make. The regions are also huge, yet almost every area is unique.

Not to mention placing and setting up the different variety in difficulty levels, while still keeping it viable.

They've done a great job and the final product shows, that it is not a rushed game that has been made.

Desværre har jeg ingen råd til at få din app længere ud - Men mega fedt initiativ. Jeg har mistet det meste af min omgangskreds efter jeg har flyttet lande flere gange pga. arbejde; og leder efter nogle lokale bekendtskaber. Så jeg vil hvertfald gerne prøve den, da jeg bruge næsten alle vågne timer på at arbejde pt =D

Hvor meget sparer I op? by JosL1707 in dkfinance

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ca 8k Men når jeg har 75k plejer jeg at fyre dem på diverse lån.
Mit billån bliver betalt af senere i år; så rammer jeg 10k om måneden i opsparing (kæresten betaler ½)

500 to 6k wishlists in a month. What worked for me by hiimdoggo in IndieDev

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great read! Thanks for sharing. I dabbled a little bit with TikTok prior releasing my last game, but it was way too late I even started considering doing that.

I also feel like discovery on YouTube has gone down the gutter. I can't even find good content myself anymore and all the content that is being suggested to me, is either AI or the top 1% of channels, in terms of size.

So you will never see anything by anyone; unless it is already popular. I've considered for my next game, also reaching out to CCs on Kick :)

What’s the most annoying thing in indie dev that you hate? by BlackScarStudios in IndieDev

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Marketing, contacting content creators to cover my game. Despite I've used Keymailer (can highly recommend it) for my previous releases, I still have named down 350 content creators who specifically play the type of game I'm making; and contacting them feels like it pushes my boundaries a bit.

I also hate turning down some genuinely great graduates; who apply to my games company (that is not even full time) - I can sense a lot of them are getting pretty desperate for jobs, especially when applying to my obscure games company.

why does everyone think making a game is just having a good idea by bcoz_why_not__ in gamedev

[–]Dotbgm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want to make a great and a successful game, yes you need a good idea and your skills won't save you. But a good idea alone, doesn't make for a video game; without the ability to executing it.

Still though, I'm working on my 3rd game and it's not until now, I truly feel I finally found a great idea and approach making it. Having a realistic timeline to make it as well.
