I really like the app for my personal reading tracking. Been using it for a couple years, and this year (?) there was a huge update that improved it a lot (better UX/UI and statistics if I’m not mistaken).

It’s mostly an app that does what it should, but not more, and gets out the way, which is awesome.

Awesome, I didn’t know that either! TIL

Especially for game developers game-jams are a great way to prevent scope creep and actually push towards a deliverable at the end of the timeframe.

And by signing up in advance you have something to hold yourself accountable with.

That being said, as a game dev, or developer in general, you need to be pretty frustration resistant. Even as a senior dev you still have these situations. Most often it’s the dev that’s wrong, not the computer (or third party library/framework/engine).

I’d also advise against using chatgpt and instead go for some basic coding Tutorials first.

I’m actually not that into actual self-hosting (it feels too close to my day job). But i love the idea of it, and actually do host my own RSS Reader: It’s selfoss (PHP + SQLite, so, very simple) and i have been using ever since google reader shut down. It runs on my uberspace.de instance.
