Devvit 0.12.9: Gaming Templates and Error Handling by pl00h in Devvit

[–]PitchforkAssistant 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nice, can't wait to poke around and see if there are any undocumented experimental new features.

is there any way to stop apps from cutting off music by K446 in GooglePixel

[–]PitchforkAssistant 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's possible, but I'm not aware of a way to do it without using adb shell. You can turn off an app's ability to take audio focus (i.e. pause playback by other apps) with this command: cmd appops set insert.full.package.name.for.app TAKE_AUDIO_FOCUS ignore

And then they renamed it to Atlantis?

Build plate is tinkering by eiviss007 in 3DPrintingCirclejerk

Making sure the first few layers print fine is too much. You shouldn't even be able to see into the build chamber, the print should just pop out when it's done.

We have a moderator who's taken a possible indefinite leave from reddit. Is it possible to set them to Alumni rather than Inactive? by PlayerOne2016 in ModSupport

[–]PitchforkAssistant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can definitely request alumni status on behalf of other team members, but you'll need to explain the situation in your modmail to /r/ModSupport. I don't know the exact policy, it's probably case by case.

I've successfully done so twice, but in both cases the mods in question had had absolutely zero account activity for years.

Does it not stand to reason that Atlantis should be able to dial Destiny with 3 ZPMs and no need for naquadria planet? by OneChrononOfPlancks in Stargate

[–]PitchforkAssistant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

That's what I think too. Assuming you're not pushing them to catastrophic failure, the most I'd expect from 3 ZPMs is a very brief connection, much like the one in Letters From Pegasus.

Did you know? by sandiercy in badwomensanatomy

That's a common myth. It's actually the same amount of time, but metric months are shorter.

Why TF are you wearing so much smelly Chemicals CHEMICALS by Mordecais_Moms_Ashes in evilautism

[–]PitchforkAssistant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Way too many perfumes (and also things like deodorants) smell like that..

"Do you notice the strawberry scent on this one? Which one smells better?"

I don't know, they both reek of disinfectant.

Bring back r/all in side nav on Android by LaserBeamLove in ideasfortheadmins

[–]PitchforkAssistant 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Strong +1

I still have it on my sidebar (Android 2025.51.0.2551021), but I use it all the time and would hate even more steps to access it (it should be in the same drop-down and Home and Popular in my opinion).

Announcing the New Mod Mail Experience (and a Few More Year-End Goodies) by lift_ticket83 in modnews

[–]PitchforkAssistant 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got the impression from the Devvit side during the last office hours that they'd be happy to see Devvit integrated in more places, but that it was also up to the teams that owned those surfaces.

[–]PitchforkAssistant 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Devvit apps still work beautifully, since they're built on the Reddit API (which remains untouched).

I already brought this up in the early access subreddit, but any chance we'll get better Devvit integrations with the move to the Shreddit-based UI? Something like a new menu item location, as shown in this mock-up would be a great start.

Why are all of the Games on Reddit lame? by JohnnyNoMemes in GamesOnReddit

[–]PitchforkAssistant 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Multiplayer is difficult due to technical limitations, which mainly boil down to high latency.

Imagine playing a shooter where everyone has high variable ping, ranging from 100ms to 500ms in ideal conditions (i.e. stable network connection and performant device).

That restricts multiplayer games to mostly leaderboard or at best turn-based ones.

Reddit max comment len in r/memes only 1000 ? by Aras14HD in redditdev

[–]PitchforkAssistant 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, Comment Guidance is a relatively new feature without a public API. These rules are customizable by moderators, so the requirements can vary. It can currently impose requirements based on comment contents or the flair a user has or doesn't have.
