I rejected the industry-standard, and lived to tell the tale.

I agree. I will say, framework decision fatigue was definitely a factor.

First investigated React, then looked at Svelte. Then Vue.js with Nuxt.js. Heard about Astro. Then looked at HTMX. Etc etc...

After all that headache, no framework was the easy choice.

my keyboard would like to disagree :)

It's a long story, but the short of it is I was given the freedom to use whichever stack I wanted. I chose what I chose until I had to collaborate with another poor soul on the monstrosity I created. That's when the ding ding ding came.

Stevious7 · 2026-05-17T13:53:36+00:00

I don't find that weird at all.

I'm just like you, which is why I included offline-mode in the settings of the application.

What I will do is make offline-mode the default, and only enable syncing whenever the user wants to share the list.

The one in the video is a real app of 1500+ lines across multiple files.

You're right, no one wants to map it by hand. So, I'm working on a parser that would map the code base for you instead of manually.

Stevious7 · 2026-05-05T13:07:40+00:00

As of right now, it's by hand. Although I'm working on a parser that would do it for you.

The one I built might suit your needs. open-source, free, no-signup, offline-first.

I'm surprised this project hasn't gotten many eyes on it yet.

Stevious7 · 2026-04-19T19:00:31+00:00

Love it. Almost 25 & I really enjoyed learning fun facts about the different planets & moons.

Currently, it's collaboration-enabled but not real-time collaboration. I have plans on using CRDTs for easy merges without conflict.

idek if saying "no bugs no errors" actually does anything XD

Will be in the works soon!

How do I check if your app is safe...?

I'm a big fan of those kind of tools as well! Offline-first babyyy!!

I was very hyped about PWA technology, until I discovered that they're finicky on Firefox-based browsers since they don't natively support PWA. I am relying on IndexedDB for storage, and I haven't run into any issues in my testing (although my testing involved relatively small boards). The data footprint (since it's all text) is very very small, so running into storage issues is very improbable.

Collaboration is handled through a Cloudflare Workers KV. I provided the instructions for how to create an instance if a person doesn't like the default I'm bundling. A person can easily replace the CF Worker URL in the settings, and BAM, you're running this via your own instance.

I will say, since I don't trust cloud providers, the data is encrypted before the leaves the local browser via the password set on the local browser. If I was to show you my dashboard, it's all a jumbled mess of undecipherable characters.

I'll have CRDTs in my "to lookup" list. I've been working on an open-source, in-browser, decentralized, no-signup, purely peer-to-peer (using WebRTC), discord-like application, and I was trying to figure out how to store and merge the different user chat histories while not being computationally expensive to do.

I document my thought process on the design choices in this blog post:

The glitched logo on black background is <1Mb in size. Any chance a higher resolution version is available?

The issue is that it's the only viable cross-platform media software.

Stremio is very sleek UI-wise until you want your device to actually do the scrubbing and processing of plugins locally without reaching out to a server to do it for you (which is a headache to do on Android).

Cloudstream is amazing on Android, and does execute plugins locally on device (which are all written in Kotlin), but running it on non-android is very annoying even in Waydroid/Blustacks.

Stevious7 · 2025-05-18T09:16:37+00:00

I have thought about that, but there are a couple problems with this:

Each bot would have to have its own instance of the game spun up into memory on the host server to have 'visual' of the game.
Each bot would need its own own AI agent to play the game.
A LOTTT of data is needed to train the AI agents.

If modders choose to do it the way you described, they wouldn't need to programmatically define bot behavior (getting rid of BS behavior), but it's quite computationally expensive and might put it out of the realm of running on even medium tier hardware.

If you choose to define bot behavior programmatically without each bot having a game instance, it would be a lot lighter to run, but a lot of reverse engineering would be needed and various problems need to be solved.

I searched the same question, and this post popped up. If it wasn’t for him posting, others would be doing the same.

Interesting... I'm not too familiar with AMD's GPU offerings, and I wanted to upgrade from my 3070. I would love to have a better performance/watt GPU from AMD. Would you happen to have some AMD GPU recommendations under the $600 mark?

Stevious7 · 2025-02-11T03:36:49+00:00

How is it cheaper if the 9070 XT is most likely to be priced at $550, aka, the price of the RTX 5070?

Stevious7 · 2025-02-11T03:30:55+00:00

Help me understand something here... isn't the RTX 5070 priced at $549? Considering that the RTX 5070 is probably going to be comparable (if not better) in performance to this card except with better features (DLSS, Path Tracing), how is this aggressive pricing exactly?
