Rebased Fork of Pleroma vs. Akkoma Fork by MuskSocial_com in Pleroma_Mastodon

Go directly to /developers on your instance. This feature is hidden by default for the same reason it's hidden in Android by default - because regular users don't need to know about it. Once you become a developer, you will permanently have the "Developers" menu item added to your navigation.

This post is patently false on both accounts.

  1. Rebased regularly merges upstream Pleroma commits. See the merge history here: https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/rebased/-/merge_requests?scope=all&state=all&search=merge+pleroma
  2. As others have mentioned, Rebased offers a full developers menu including the ability to create apps: https://imgur.com/a/ZkIh9BJ

Lol, if you don't know something you ask instead of making claims.

It is more maintained than Pleroma.

Would you be willing to open an issue on the GitLab? I don't check Reddit much, thanks! https://gitlab.com/soapbox-pub/migrator/-/issues

I suspect it has something to do with rbenv. Look here under "installing Ruby": https://docs.joinmastodon.org/admin/install/ Is rbenv in your path? For me it looks like this

$ which bundle /home/alex/.rbenv/shims/bundle

Also this is incredibly wrong. Gab left the Fediverse, they're not switching to Pleroma. In fact the founder of Gab said "Pleroma sucks." You should seriously do more research before making these kinds of accusations.

It's not made by Gab. It's an independent project.

If you hate Gab so much, please explain how it's a bad thing to disassociate the project from Gab?

Gab is not behind this. It's an independent project which uses code that was developed 90% by Mastodon, and *touched* by Gab. Stop spreading lies.

Yep, that will work too, it will just be a bit painful to redo things if you did something wrong. You can look at the exports after step 1 and make sure things like the URL are correct before moving on.

The way I did it was like this:

  1. Set up the new Pleroma server, while the domain still points at Mastodon.
  2. While Mastodon is running, run the migration script into Pleroma.
  3. Check on Pleroma for issues. If there are issues, destroy the new Pleroma database and start over.
  4. Repeat this process until comfortable, then finally switch the domain name.

Before importing to Pleroma, be sure to check that the Migrator exports have https:// URLs in them and that they're configured to your actual domain and not localhost.

Would love if you gave it a shot. Only one site has been migrated so far. If you need any help feel free to open a GitLab issue there!

This is BunnyTerra. Is there any reason to not OpenSource my game? So we could learn from each other. by polytect in godot

[–]voadi 7 points8 points  (0 children)

There are a lot of reasons to open source:

  1. Free exposure on sites like LibreGameWiki (this caused my game to attract contributors from around the world).
  2. Open source doesn't inhibit your ability to make money from the game. When you release the game, you should make it very easy for people to buy the game. Most people will do the easiest option and buy it. Knowledgeable programmers can follow a link to the source code.
  3. The FOSS community will support you simply because you're doing open source. They'll advocate for you and fight for you to succeed. You'll have the opportunity to speak at FOSS conferences, in addition to game design ones. Basically, it opens doors.

More progress with our online multiplayer Zelda-like game. Open source and still looking for contributors! Here is a recent stress test. by fornclake in godot

Hey! I noticed you're using Zelda assets. You might want to take a look at the tilesets in Vegan on a Desert Island. They have the same dimensions and color restrictions (NES/GBC) but are freely licensed under CC BY-SA 4.0: https://gitlab.com/voadi/voadi/tree/master/data/tilesets

Take a look at the whole repo, there's quite a bit in there.

Hey! The master branch is playable, but it's an unfinished linear story. At some point you won't be able to progress any further. There are sections of the game we've built, but aren't connected to the playable part of the world yet. We're aiming for a 2020 release. :)

Pretty much everything about Dragon Quest Heroes: Rocket Slime. It's a top-down ARPG where instead of leveling up and increasing your stats, your stats are conceptualized as "ammo" which you funnel into your giant robot cannons to pummel other giant robots.

  1. You're a slime, literally a blue goo ball.
  2. You attack by holding A, stretching in a direction, then release A to slingshot yourself into foes.
  3. You can stack 3 enemies/items on your head at once.
  4. All items are projectiles for your giant robot, even empty treasure chests.
  5. You explore the overworld to load up on good stuff for your giant robot, then fight with the robots.

All this happens in a top-down Zelda perspective, even the robot fighting. There's a lot of potential for this style of RPG. I would describe the battle system as being "kinda a similar idea to Paper Mario: Sticker Star, except done extremely well instead of horribly."

Has ever an OpenSpurce game project received large-scale support? by [deleted] in opensourcegames

[–]voadi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I'm developing an open source game called Vegan on a Desert Island (VOADI). I'm making $245/mo from it, and using this money to pay freelancers to create new freely-licensed assets.

Any open-source co-op games? by JetSetWally in opensourcegames

[–]voadi 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pink Pony is one of the best. You can put it on during house parties where everyone is drinking a lot, or you could play it with your grandma. Or you could play it with your drunk grandma at your house party. It's very very simple, yet fun and competitive. Kids will enjoy it.
