> But an iPhone fits in your pocket.

this is the reason I loved the Ricoh GR series of cameras, an APS-C sensor that genuinely fits in almost any pocket is incredible, it's not for everyone but I wish there were more companies trying this, even the X100 cameras are too big for that

that's definitely got a lot of stuff too, though from what I've seen the PPOOLL stuff seems a bit more high level closer to bespoke synth, I guess the ideal thing is something that spans both, though bespoke is one of the easiest to use ones I've seen yet which is nice

damn, I've been looking for something similar to Max/PPOOLL but more accessible (especially on windows/linux) after reading about Tim Hecker using it and this seems like it could get to that point

that kinda implies two equal parties instead of a solo dev doing something in their spare time vs an evil megacorp

of course, just pointing out that right now it's a pretty large distinction between the two

A big distinction for me is not having a nice UI for level design and 'arranging' everything that isn't the code, though a lot of the other aims do seem pretty similar

I think it's actually pretty common that when a fairly typical thing is written in a newer/modern/less common language, it's often stated as "X written in <new language>"

yeah there is some absolutely questionable stuff there, I wonder why searching for VK brings them all up, some of these seem like random direct-to-youtube uploads but there's so many of kids that it almost seems like someone's collection, but why does a search for VK return them all? seems like a strange coincidence that there'd be troubling image results and empty normal results

my RX 570 got through two GPU workunits for COVID-19 via folding@home without any setup or beta programs or anything, just kinda worked fine for me

I've found wayland still has strange input, if there's a lot of CPU usage going on (something compiling or whatever) then the mouse and keyboard input will 'lag' and get stuck, plus it feels worse in games to me but the benefits seem really good, I hope wayland can keep improving so I can switch without it feeling worse for me

Honestly it might be a trivial thing to most people but I really do find the way Linux tends to render fonts to just be really telling and ugly, this has genuinely put me off using Linux more for development stuff as it's a big problem with VSCode in my experience

I actually missed this, and the thing with Vector3s and such not being all in one was one of my main gripes, I'm super happy to see stuff like this

The one thing I hope Godot can push towards is just a huge pass in usability, smoothing out UI bugs and just generally improving the look and feel of the entire engine and all of it's UI - stuff like the 'inspector' panel just doesn't feel as nice or as usable as something like Unity's - it has great features but in my opinion just doesn't "feel" quite as polished as it could be, but I really do hope for this engine to keep improving and getting better
