     @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social it's the ugliest modern web design slop i've ever seenMy website is made using a static site generator and it requires no javascript to browse. There are no tracker/analytics scripts or any modern web bloat in it. You can even browse my entire site through its RSS feed. I seriously don't understand what you are complaining about.
     turns out pl2 was a h game.I think I have been pretty clear about this fact.
     lpl2 is just an engine reimplementation. no h stuff by default because nothing by defaultSharing these files is copyright infringement, I still share them openly on Fedi (find it in my pinned posts) because I consider that reasonably low risk considering it is basically "abandonware".
     
     I consciously do not put the files on my website (indexed by search engines) or on Codeberg (against tos) however.
     
     You can acquire them either by buying a copy of the game on DLSite, looking for them on various filesharing websites (https://sukebei.nyaa.si), or by finding them in my pinned posts on my fedi profile (latest LPL2 release announcement).
     
     Sorry, that the game files are not extremely easy to find, this is done deliberately. Blame copyright law for this, not me.
     page says "want source? fuck you! go to codeberg!"This is not a "fuck you". I am actively working on this project as the sole developer and I don't want to have to update my website every single time I push a new release. Maybe I will put up a direct download link when I stop developing it and I consider the project "done".

     @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social Getting the game ported from Python2 to Python3 already took me multiple weeks.
     
     I have considered porting this to a different programming language, because I'm not the greatest fan of Python either, but I don't want to make my life even harder.
     
     The game runs completely fine on Python with Panda3D, it is not extremely graphically intensive. I would consider it kind of pointless to rewrite it again in another language for a very minimal performance gain.

     >I don't want to have to update my website every single time I push a new release
     is cgit, or for heaven's sake hg, really so hard to set up?

     >etc,
     i was not asking for the files. if i were to have installed lpl2, i would be glad the files were not included. the idea of mentioning that was as one of the positives.
     >My website is made using a static site generator and it requires no javascript to browse. There are no tracker/analytics scripts or any modern web bloat in it. You can even browse my entire site through its RSS feed. I seriously don't understand what you are complaining about.
     picrel. i understand you might prefer the right window for whatever reasons, but i much, much prefer when the website serves text/plain.

     @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social Oh you're complaining that my website actually uses reasonable HTML and CSS features and doesn't look like it is from 1992?
     
     Sorry not sorry.

     @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social And yeah only fair point is that I could indeed be hosting my own git repositories. But I prefer to host it on Codeberg, because there's honestly nothing really wrong with it.

     you can't exactly talk about no bloat at that point.

     @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social I think we have different definitions of bloat.
     
     Extreme minimalists say every single byte that is not strictly necessary is bloat (and then proceed to waste even bytes arguing about it).
     
     In my opinion it is only really bloat when there is a significant amount of javascript bullshit on a page actively slows down the computer for no reason.

     @Ree@shitposter.world @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social That is actually possible but I don't see any gains from rewriting all my Python code into GDScript.

     @phnt@fluffytail.org @HatkeshiatorTND@annihilation.social I am not actively blocking Tor traffic on my network. Both my instance and my website are on the same server so it is very odd that only one works.

     @SuperDicq @HatkeshiatorTND minidsc.tokyo used to refuse connection via Tor and now that works...
     
     jiyu.dev is accessible if you Curl it, but refuses connections from Tor browser.

     @HatkeshiatorTND @SuperDicq In terms of bloat I'd argue the avatar image being a PNG with alpha channel at 708kB is the most glaring offender. The thumbnails could do with being trimmed down as well--one at 741kb. The overall design is personal taste.

     Why is this appearing on an otoMAD branch?
