@Ategon@programming.dev might give a more precise date, but unless there is an important security update, we prefer to wait 1-2 weeks to see how the update goes.

From the perspective of the admin team, as long as reports are consistently resolved in a timely manner we are happy.

If you have any questions or want help with finding extra moderators, feel free to ask it here or via DM, otherwise we also have a Discord server and a Matrix space where we can talk.

@jnovinger@programming.dev

Just a reminder that we sent you a DM some time ago, but have yet to receive an answer. Happy cake day :)

-The admin team

Please refrain from harassing our users, keep whatever argument you have contained to the thread it started. Following and harassing users across communities/instances is not tolerated.

You will only be given a temporary ban of one week from our instance, but if it continues after that it will changed to a permanent ban.

Per our Code of Conduct, please avoid insulting users when commenting on our instance, even if "they started it".

While we have opened up community creation for users, please refrain from misusing the feature.

Also, as specified in our code of conduct, try to avoid personal attacks. @Lmaydev@programming.dev

Community creation is open for all users, you are free to create a community dedicated to Q&A if you want a community explicitly for it. The admin team is willing to help out with moderation if that is what's holding you back.

Please refrain from using slurs and disparage people for no good reason on our instance.

A shame we won't get an expansion or sequel by Larian, but DOS 3 sounds good too.

The person has previously been warned to stopped posting links to the site. They've now been given a temp ban, if that doesn't deter them, they'll be given a permanent ban and we might ban the site from our instance.

I didn't mean to imply CD stores sounds files of worse quality, only that if you aren't after the experience vinyl provides, digital files is a more convenient form of media.

Maybe I should have written a longer comment to elaborate on what I meant. What I meant to say is that if your primary concern is sound quality rather than the experience physical media gives you, I would assume a flac file would be a more popular option due to its convenience.

There's way more to a game's look than textures though. Arguably ray tracing will have a greater impact than textures. Not to mention, for retro games, you could just generate the textures beforehand, no need to do it in real time.

If you're going for quality, you'd just buy the flac file though

Please refrain from using personal insults in this community. You're free to express your opinion, but personal insults does nothing but make the community more toxic. c/programming is a gathering ground for both inexperienced and experienced programmers, so this level of lashing out is uncalled for.

I'd like to imagine it causing some situations similar to this.

Appreciate the offer, but we want to try to avoid another situation with reports not being seen by mods for weeks.

Added as moderator

Added as a moderator, we will likely add at least one more if there are more volunteers showing up.

programming.dev will migrate over to (lemmy compatible) Sublinks once it's ready, which will feature a different set of mod features. For that reason we will need new moderators to have an active programming.dev account. If you're willing keep an active user account on our instance let me know. We would prefer people we know will actively use their mod account to make sure reports are handled in a timely manner.
