It’s pretty standard thing in systems other than dnd, called “drives” or “motivation”. There are plenty of them, not only nine. And there’s no need for axis, and no need for names like “path or some shit” too.

There’s a gif on GitHub page, but it doesn’t make it obvious (for me) if this software can help with “regular” copy/paste. What if I’m logged into two tty sessions at once, can I copy text in nano in one tty and paste it in other editor, like micro, in the other tty? With some universal hotkey?

DM should adapt... like, okay we'll summon another demon, just less powerful

It's much worse in Lemmy due its "federative" nature. For example, for "Dungeons&Dragons" - in reddit you have 9 subs in search, 2 of them are memes-related, 3 are "general" ones, 2 for DnD5e, 1 for DnD3.5 and 1 for UK people. They have clear distinction at least in their names, and sometimes have separate "theme", like the one for 3.5 edition. In lemmy we already have 14, most of them have same name, literally letter to letter. And don't forget that lemmy's userbase is ~6000+ times less than reddit. People just continue to create new instances and same comminities, over and over.

I’m still struggling to reach the level where I can consider myself a decent GM. My cognitive resources are limited and after splitting them between constant rebuilding behind-the-curtains threats and fronts, managing PC’s requests and generating good narrative - the latter part receives least attention. It leads to lack of narrative detail and, and PCs get rather poor foundation for making interesting choices and their narrative atop of it. Don’t get me wrong they are all happy and excited after session, that’s just me inherently know that I could do 10 times better. In theory)

It would be more visible on the communities page, I support this too

Yes! If I want some kind of mage/spellcaster in my game, I go for Unlimited Dungeons variant. Bot DW and HbW mage variants are disappointedly limited

I prefer Homebrew World, it's like Dungeon World 2.0 in many cases, but it's for sure tailored for oneshots or short campaigns. There are also DW: Unlimited Dungeons which shares some similarities with HbW, and Stonetop in its early access stage

Homebrew World, a Dungeon World hack by Jeremy Strandberg. It has less D&D legacy in terms of moves, which are more PbtA-style and less of “add this points of damage” or “add +1 to roll”. It’s made for oneshots or brief campaigns, playbooks are interesting and fun to actual use. I’ve run a game recently, took 8 hours and was really a blast!

As an adult with particular life circumstances, I don’t have a luxury to play with a same group of people with decent regularity. That’s why HbW is my way to go as a GM. Stonetop needs investment I couldn’t afford… but its well-written and explains core game loops much better than DW rulebook… that’s the result of 10(?) years evolution

Yes, it's kinda sad. I'd totally love to have my rulebook with all the enhancements from best hacks but alas. As far as I know, creators of DW don't plan to update it

Yes, that’s what I wanted to know. So alas, no out-of-the-box magic for me…I find it incredibly frustrating that in 2023 one can’t simply copy-paste text from one local console to another. It seems like a basic function for a terminal-based *nix systems which doesn’t exist. I know it’s complicated even at the first glance, with huge security implications (like copying text in the root terminal and pasting it to a user one) but I believe it’s all solvable

Yes, that’s picture I saw when I’ve been subscribed. But now it works, suddenly)

The main goal is to get piano learning app working… and it needs low latency, so network solution doesn’t work either…

Anyway, I get old used IPad Air 2 and it works flawlessly for that kind of task

Meta-communities in two flawors:

  • user/UI-based, where the user can create an entry in his preferences, add a bunch of communities there and set which one will be its "facade". The main "con" here that every single user should do a lot of work by himself
  • server-based, where you can create new meta-community, add your own community there, and send invites to all similar communities to join. Every community that joined could(should?) be removed from discovery, but be visible as "nested". Search by its name should lead to meta-community. Ownership of such meta-community should belong to its members in term that not a single one could delete it or make any harm. Meta-community exists while there's at least one member in it. Picture of meta-community in discovery could be anything, one can take it from most populated member community, but user could be able to change it in his preferences to any other member.

Important part that one to be careful about combining feeds. Small cozy community can just dissolve in valley of posts from much larger ones. The thing is controversial, on one hand it's really handy to see all the posts all at once, on the other hand - it can kill smaller communities, as their creators will lose the sense and desire to have them maintained. There are different solutions:

  • Make feed combined, but give posts from smaller community higher priority
  • Make user to switch feed manually and let hit set "default" to show when you open meta-community
  • Give user a choice between two

To me, manual changing feeds feels more healthy for a smaller ones.

It’s easy to make it look like it could work. As for gnome/kde, with 1 Gb RAM that’s not an option
