, I keep seeing tags under various posts on Mastodon Social, but never managed to figure out how you're meant to use them, so I normally would just put related hashtags in my messages, which often clutters them.

I'd really appreciate some help with figuring out how to use them, I've tried looking it up, but I can never figure it out.

Here's an example of what I mean for anyone unaware of this feature:

Tags from a post that read: #pico8 #gamedev #indiedev, used as an example.

Just completed the main story of Devil May Cry 5, what a brilliant game, love the soundtrack and it is so satisfying when you can pull off a decent style combo.

@PonderosaJohn To be honest, it's more when I get to actually naming something when it's no longer in that early stage.

@mika Yeah, it's annoyingly hard to name stuff sometimes, I usually pick a word that kind of relates to my project and then call it Project <word here> until I land on a final name, but I've never really been able to think of anything that doesn't end up sounding like a generic game translated from China :/

Another question, when naming a new project, how long does it usually take before you land on a name you like? And what is your usual process for naming a new project?

I'm struggling to find a good name for my project right now and I'm curious how the process usually is for other people.

@davidbisset Never played Super Monkey Ball, but I love this trend of porting old games to the web, I think there's one of DOOM as well?

@miiko Ah, sorry for the late reply, currently, my other active account is on Bluesky, but I decided to make a Mastodon account recently so I'm not just on one platform, and to see what it's like here.

Random post, but I can't believe there's an official :underheart: emoji on here, Undertale & Deltarune are some of my favorite games for their beautiful storytelling and incredible OSTs.

@mika Never heard of Yunohost myself, but I'll be sure to take a look, thanks for the help!

Some extra details since I hit the character limit (curse my habit of over-explaining things), I haven't been able to find many public details on Disroot as an alternative which has made me hesitate on using it for any of my current/future projects.

@artgubbin I can't unsee the Deltarune explosion effect now, I love it.

Question for anyone doing , has anyone found a decent alternative to GitHub for private/personal projects?

GitLab used to be a decent option but I haven't really liked my experience with it as of late, and, unfortunately, I do not have the necessary infrastructure to host my own Git server locally, since I do not want to store my project files in one place with no redundancy.

So far, I've only really been able to find git.disroot.org, but there aren't a ton of details.

@teahands Thanks for the advice, I really appreciate it. So far, I'm really liking the overall experience compared to most social platforms, especially when it comes to feed curation and customizing my profile.

@teahands Guilty as charged, sometimes it can be useful, but most of the time I end up over-complicating everything lol

@teahands 👋 Hello! I'm not really used to these kinds of platforms, or social media in general tbh haha

To avoid getting locked into one platform only, I have decided to make an account on Mastodon both as a way to reach more people and as a backup if I ever need to switch platforms. So, hello there, everyone!

For a brief introduction, I go by MB on the internet, the usual topics I like to follow are , and .

As of writing, I am currently attempting to learn .NET/C# and game development in general, in the hopes that I will be able to release my own game in the future.
