they're too busy hiding epstein's tracks 😭 (I will leave it like this without context)

”We’ll find other ways to bring users back.”

is this a threat

yeah... hopefuly big tech and govt dont end up controlling the internet to a point where we have to find something else (or people will go the dark web, and criminal will be pushed further down lol)

obviously, but by definition no own open source, so forks are always possible
February 9, 2026 at 8:25 PM
That's crazy!

the older I get, the more exposed to the reality of the world I am, the more research i do, the more I realize how unsustainable capitalism is

what was I say...uh...yeah cancel discord nitro

TLDR:

But where im not pessimistic is that I think eventually everything in tech will be FOSS (could take decades)

it's the only thing that will stand against the perverse effect of capitalism....it will take time but I truly think its inevitable!

just look at Blender, godot, Linux,...

im a pessimist for tech nowadays so I think the enshittification of discord is inexorable

speculation:

age verification (we're here📍) => age verif mandatory to access any public server => verif for any NSFW servers => NSFW servers banned on discord => now its safe and secure for investors 😌💲

Joke aside they were super nice, and we're honored to be able to bundle with them 🥺🙏 (it's very validating as a nonogram dev)

Logiart Grimoire is excellent, and very challenging!

And we dont think we trick olayerd as we also provide hours long demo showing exactly what the game is!
February 8, 2026 at 2:15 PM
Totally! But if a player doesnt care for that, our game is not the best for them! Another simpler, more minimalist picross (like Jupiter’s) would be better
February 8, 2026 at 2:13 PM
Again, I see your point, but this is how we want the game to feel, and these little celebration moments are important to us! They give you a rest between puzzles. Every game is different, and it seemed that the overwhelming majority of players enjoyed this un squeakross! We can’t please everyone 😔
