Yukinu's Forum

Yukinu, I love you, and I love everything you do. But, kindly, how does the founder of the Lainchan Webring, and one of it's greatest site admins, NOT have an up-to-date ring? ... Thank you for the kind words. I've regrettably been slow to update my copy of the webring. The delays are largely due t...

Interesting, they seem to have written their own crawler and everything, pretty impressive. Also the search engine works very well without JavaScript. I do not think the Yukinu Blog is in Stract yet but there are a few Lainchan webring sites). It may depend on which user agent they are using and if ...

I also have a new RSS feed I can add to the list:

• https://www.romhacking.net/romhackingdotnet.rss
  • Romhacking.net. It's a site dedicated to ROM hacks for retro games. They also have a forum where people discuss ROM hacks and tools for creating ROM hacks.

and how modern distributions' standard program stacks are moving faster than we can keep up. That will definitely be a compounding problem over time. As more of their dependencies are dropped from package repos, they'll start having to pull and maintain an ever increasing nubmer of packages into th...

They feel more like ticketing systems than anything "solid" if that makes sense. I've noticed that too, Discourse seems to have become less a tool for community building and into more of a organizational management tool for interface with the public through a limited channel. Much like a ...

Hah! You're running in open doors. I'm a TDE contributor. ... I just admittedly don't use it in my day-to-day because there's still so... many... bugs. And no support for hi-dpi monitors. Nice, definitely a worthwhile project to contribute to! Maintaining both the DE, the version of Qt used to buil...

As more and more people are rediscovering and rebuilding the great parts of the web that have been lost, I've been noticing a bit of a small revival in forums, especially within tech communities. Many larger tech projects are starting to host their own forum software, the most notable and popular of...
