    Well what’s nice is that any device on your Tailscale network has a WireGuard connection between any other device on that network. You can also use exit nodes. While all of that can be achieved with WireGuard, the complexity of that can grow quite large as you add more nodes.

  • Have you ever needed to troubleshoot a software bug that only had discord as a place to look for help? It’s a complete disaster, and switching to Matrix, while better than discord in many ways, wouldn’t change the fact that it’s not good for software troubleshooting.

    Chat programs are not ideal for software communities since so much of software discussion is built around troubleshooting. We should stop using discord and instead use forums with IRC channels built in. That way wikis can be built into the site, discussion about important topics is slower and well indexed, and the endless ranting/chatting can still be done but doesn’t take away from the topics that matter. What would be even better is if there were a fediverse style page that handled all of that, so you wouldn’t need multiple accounts fire various software packages.

    I’d say check it out anyways, if you’re into retro gaming and/or programming and/or hardware. This guy is great. He was re-making portal for N64 and his dev vlog was fantastic. Eventually valve and Nintendo forced him to take it down (mostly Nintendo) so he’s moving on to other things like this.

    Sure the thumbnail is obnoxious but if that’s his livelihood and that’s what it takes to get clicks, meh. I’d rather judge the video by its content than the thumbnail.
