@DaiShimaVT https://joinmastodon.org/servers and https://instances.social are good places to find an instance!

Writing instructions for users is so hard... even when you think you've explained what you need clearly, you always miss some ways it can be confusing!

We're slowly improving the VT Social about page and info request warning templates. If you have any suggestions or you found the process confusing, please let us know how we can improve! ✨ #noxp

Over 2000 FPS on kmscube, over 120FPS on simple scenes in OBS, and Xonotic is now pretty close to a solid 60 FPS! The new allocator works!! ??

And we found and fixed some Mesa bugs while we were at it~ ✨

Next up, compressed depth buffers!! ?

@Logical_Error @alyssa @dougall By first merging the rust-for-linux downstream updates and then writing everything else myself!

Hello everyone~! Stream starts in 1 hour nya~!! ✨

Let's see how much faster we can make the driver today!! I expect a big improvement after I rewrite the allocator! ??

I wonder if I should do another Q&A stream one of these days? ✨

Or maybe that karaoke stream everyone asked for last time... ?

? M1 GPU driver dev stream! ?

Things are looking great!! Now let's fix the kernel allocator performance!! ?

Right now we only get ~1000 submissions per second, but we can do much better! Let's go!! ✨

@grantonthenet In development kernels, yes! ✨

?How about some Xonotic on the Apple M1? ?

Running natively on Linux with @alyssarzg's latest Mesa branch and my Rust kernel driver!! ✨✨

Oh yeah, and OBS also works nya~! ?

GLES2 dEQP tests passing at 99.89% and GLES3 at 90.75%, including 4xMSAA support!!! ?

30 minutes to go!!! Let's go nya~!!!! ✨

The M1 Ultra works!! Now it's time to go from GL2.1 to GL3!! ?

Alyssa has been working on MSAA and MRT support in Mesa, so now we need to add support in the Linux side! ?

@LunaFoxgirlVT @lethalbit @lailah_s I need to figure out how to change the app defaults to not do this by default for new users, but at least for now I added some custom CSS to make it show a lot more height when collapsed. Hopefully this makes it less painful! ^^

You can move between different servers (instances)!

If you no longer think your home instance is the best place for you - maybe the admin is too busy to get rid of spammers or other uncomfy people - moving across instances is natively supported, and will carry most of your followers with you (minus ones that opt out of auto-following migrated accounts).

When adding an image, you can move the "focal point".
On most Social Media, this is done automatically by Algorithms™, here you can manually control what the crop should look like.
