it's quite an experience
I'm working with WSL + Docker atm and it's the worst. Better to just use plain old Linux.
i have 16gb of ram and still no to electron
I hardly have 8gb but almost everything is electron
it's not actual electron but it's the same concept
chrome engine as apps
hey i use it on my vps, im not struggling because im just barely executing any commands
chat apps, editors, etc etc
I got this, one sec
imagine guys.
electron but firefox
there's no way this is real
that is real
is that actually how big it is holy shit
discord leaks memory
nodejs was a mistake
is 1gb big?
?
oh RAM
i thought 1GB of storage
Chrome OS is better than Electron, after all you only have one instance of Chrome open at all times
cat how tf did you get it to 1 gig
the pins don't mention discussing 3rd party clients
You just visit a few discords
just one chonky instance
Like, the thing doesn't seem to free memory from other channels, etc
HOLY SMOKES
Still, Electron and frameworks alike are the future.
how did you get it to 1gb of ram
lol
tell me this in a few years
discord will use 35% of my cpu but only 250mb of ram
id rather one chonky instance than fifteen smaller, bloated instances each children of each other
java class started
js people will find a new framework
i am disappointed
opposite here
🧢
web is the future
Lmfao I feel your pain gato
it needs a speed upgrade though
if you already know java at a proficient level, that class will deaden your soul
I think Web based apps will take off
have fun gato!
just ctrl-tab'd to every discord server I have
IMO, Electron and Node.js only exist so that terrible Frontend devs can cosplay as desktop app developers and backend developers respectively
Hahaha wauw
I'm not sure how I feel about nodejs and the entire desktop js situation
what did you smoke, so I can be sure not to smoke it too?
was js ever made to be a desktop and app programming thing
Zware vanelle Logics
Electron is meant to die tbh, PWAs will replace them when Javascript gets access to low-level APIs
what do you think a PWA is

JS is a web browser language that’s been shoehorned into everything
i hate to break it to you but it's pretty much just electron
Best I could get
web languages invading the desktop application territory should have never happened
PWA is Electron except it's a single chromium instance rather than 30 different ones
I'm honestly not sure why js is so popular, its not flawed just seriously seriously weird
what about- electron but firefox?
that exists, and it sucks
process.exit(0)
there's a website for this
The alternatives aren't that much better tbh
as someone who barely knows js, im fine with it as my first coding language
electron but firefox was a thing called positron, but it got sunsetted and is archived now
Just look at java Jframe
Unfortunately, I can’t complain much. I work at a startup now and a lot of it is JavaScript and Node.js
duck wrong url
I'm not complaining, I'm fine with JavaScript, I also love Java equally.

Node.js and Python perplexes me. WOW you just locked yourself into a language with very bad threading capabilities. sugoi!
I know a bit of rust
cluster 🙂
Go I tried, I found channels and goroutines to be very powerful but I like rusts enums too much
Python doesn't have real threading though
me ..
("kinda semi-decent" should be interpreted as 25% decent btw
)
OK this is my opinion and its not your opinion and I am open to persuasion but
rust > go > C > python > js
python and node are for things that are IO bound and/or small but you need to get done quick
is opinions a mistake
C goes at the end
Isn't JS like the most used programming language?
Python is only for academics
js would go in front of python for me since it's generally more performant and has threading that exists (but is kinda bad)
you are entitled to any opinion
Go is google's toy language
I hate Python's syntax it's so bad
It's a lot like PHP in many ways
I'm not a fan of c++ at all though
Rust is for ppl that need something to believe in
you want to get something done you import fifteen boostlibs
Go is for when you outgrow Python but don't want to use a better language like Kotlin or Rust 😛
kotlin ?
Yeah remember when everybody started to write Microservices in go for no apperent reason? 😂
you're entitled to your opinion even if it's wrong - someone from some gc, 2018
C, C++, and JavaScript are the world’s most commonly used programming languages, to the saddest possible effect
why
C I quite like for very low level things, I tried writing a toy os and it made sense.
the only sad language here is JS though
honestly whenever I say JavaScript what I actually mean is TypeScript
C isn't as low level as you think
shak in g my head
I jumped through all my unread discords
Only ppl hating es6 have never used es6
i hate arrows
At least I have the luxury of using TypeScript.
C isn't as low level as things like assembly, but I like how they can be neatly combined
I often prefer JS for TS
Typescript just felt like a slightly messy javascript, but I used it a long time a go
Typescript is like Javascript except when you fuck up it tells you at compile time
Don't use arrow functions then, async/await is your friend
Or it freaks out for no apperent reason
fuck async
i WUV async
arrow functions are confusing, hard to read but so useful
But not always, and you can make it shut up.
TypeScript is nice, a lot of cool JS projects are made in it.
I think the only time it makes sense to write anything new in C is if you need to run it on something Rust can't compile for or need something that is as small as possible and don't want to jump through the hoops needed to do that with Rust

concurrency is fun

i hate concurrency
you hate good things, dont you?
I wanna get into some of the more intricate things
why did cpu designers create more threads
someone tried making a basic toy os in rust and boy did it feel bloated
or cores
But,I ain't ever really had too many issues with threaded code
Cool thing about JS is that you never have concurrency issues in browsers
imagine, i make a plugin that does a backup on your server completely sync
concurrency I love fucking
That's why
rust when you import spinlock
Shit it didn't give a neat embed
lol !
I mean, it's easier to scale cores than it is to scale clock speed
cant even read it
The Free Lunch Is Over: A Fundamental Turn Toward Concurrency in Software
yes, just ask your host for more cores
I mean in terms of CPU makers
but what about the async plugin tasks?
fuck you
making chips faster is complex
o
Concurrency as far as I know is very powerful if your code and logic is organised, otherwise its messy as flip
adding more cores is "cheap"
no concurrency
hater
what do you mean
Actually it is quite hard. Dennard scaling effectively stopped in 2006, which meant to get increased performance you have to use multiple CPUs now.
why did they change the server ivcon
sounds like you arent trying hard enough
what's a webpack
Here let me just link http://gotw.ca/publications/concurrency-ddj.htm again
yes load the auth page with iframes
Amaranth didn't you know apache was made before async was discovered
don't use any javascript tooling
dont scream!
ugh please don't
do you have one of these for Web assembly
webasm
unfortunately not 
ah pity
No, it’s because of unforgiving physics. You should do some research.
webasm is just another stepping stone towards rust dominance
fuck chrome! firefox for life
What's a firefox?
when will rust enums be supported
never
rust enums will never be supported
is it on fire
it's like a chrome but more open and less restricted
Is that what masochists use?
i mean, raw instructions are useless to an app
the best mainstream browser, mircosoft edge is fastest mainstream tho rn cuz it's a fork
no wait what
i dont care about apps
webasm doesn't work rust enums what
why do i care about apps
Who's to say your site is even on an x86 machine?
so here's a story
Edge is love
fuck risc
webasm is proof https://www.destroyallsoftware.com/talks/the-birth-and-death-of-javascript is true
Edge is default, I don't run default.
so i had an API which used protobuf for its transport
i only use x86_64
.wat
code generation for protobuf is expensive in JS (I had a 2MB library output for the API only)
this
That's so stupid. That's like saying driving on the right is default, i drive left
so i decided to try codegening in rust and having all protobuf encoding happen in WASM
makes a note not to ride in a car with mini
turns out that WASM bindings don't work with Rust enums at all
well, every experienced windows user will use mircosoft edge to install literally any other browser.
rust ....
I do unironically drive left because road laws
Hey i only crashed my car once!
lol
mini what are you doing this late smh
I like to call myself an experienced users and I enjoy using edge, thank you very much
use curl smh
use lynx
Mini, you do know they only call it off roading when intentional, rite?
Being a msft chill, what else?!
So it's always you blocking the left lane, KNEW IT!
if i had to use curl to download a web browser, im not using the os.
manually pop bytes off the network whatsits
yes stop using DBUS sockets were not meant to be abstracted
i like to keep my command line and my os seperate, meaning i shouldnt have to do os related operations like changing settings via command line
my cli is my os
"hello I would like to a(siii(ii)) apples please"
I do the vast majority of things on cli apart from something
imagine using Edge to download Chrome
literally a waste of time since they have the same core haha get it guys what a nice joke
Man this is getting too stupid, even for me
cli is just faster for a lot of stupid things
I use the terminal for opening a finder window in a folder as it's easier than navigating manually :L
lol !
cli is nice, plus you cant tabspam a gui
well, before it didnt and it's probably why a lot of new users still do it.
btw node has threads https://nodejs.org/api/worker_threads.html
main problem with CLI is that you never remember command arguments unless you do that command every single day of your life
then they should be informed
node is existing
just remember them silly
fish-shell and tabspam
with sane tools, arguments are generally consistent to some degree
never use a desktop again
its 22:36... still about 1 hour and 24 minutes to do the epic hardfork april fools prank thats going to happen today...
right?
what
they can inform themselves, i was very tempted to go from firefox back to edge, but then i remembered i dont wanna be seen by my friends as one of those 'old people' who use microsoft edge
the best april fools was when oskars parents said "Hey, we'll be safe without one, just once, right?"
thats mean
wtf cat
that's mean but funny
smh ur parents did the same
i just use Firefox anyway but if I had to go Chromium-based I'd just use Edge and fuck it
screw my friends lmfao
I mean, I disowned my parents \o/
Okay, well, my father disowned me, but, it still counts!
does it
ungoogled-chromium would like to enter the chat
understandable cat
is it transitive
idk man, everytime my mom is either on my pc or hers, she'll be using mircosoft edge and i go like wowwww
Chromium Edge is great
sorry i hate bill gates
anyone who says otherwise is stupid or hasnt tried it
cannot talk to you
probably, but i want it to be more socially accepted before i switch, i like mainstream
another reason I use a tiling wm is that nobody else knows how to use my pc
why do you care about social acceptance
I think this is the dumbeset discussion I've read in a long time
people who dont use lynx
support
Chromium Edge is superior to Chrome for still allowing you to mute tabs instead of "websites"
what support
like who the fuck had that idea?
is this the general attitude of this channel
The Firefox engine is a great project, and it's community driven forks are great browsers in my opinion.
"no no you can't mute single tabs anymore, you can now mute all tabs that have one website"
Says the maintainer of a fork
bill gates owns like 1% of MS stock.....
more mainstream, more support. why do u think i no switch when i realize linux good for my machine?? because of compatability and native applications.
again
wha t
this
Am sorry, am always right cat
its a browse r and its updates
I never got into firefox
sry, it was my best example
Firefox is nice
firefox > edge > all chromiums
I mean, I used it for a good while, but, then it got slow
and then they had some huge kick-off project where they optimized it
getting DMs from him
Firefox on mac feels super slow
Isn’t made by an evil corporation either
and then it got slow again
not cool
so, they fixed it again
ssilly dm
Firefox is irrelevant thankfully, I don't even bother to test my shit in Firefox anymore
dw, they'll own it soon enough
wat
test for ie6 support
Only reason hangar works on firefox is because machine maker uses firefox
Hangar is a failed project
every do often I ping my friends projects with an ie6 vm to scare then
and, now it seems fine, but, I just, I'm used to vivaldi which has its own moronic issues, but, still
if your website doesnt support ie6 it sucks
So sad, I guess we'll have to go back to using forums
Yes.
you realize that now?
:D
wtf aurora
is hangar hosted anywhere right now?
sounds like a plugin I'd make where I switch the underling api to paper for no reason while my server runs Purpur.
wait does that mean my coat hangra sucks
Safari and chrome are like 99% right
:(
It is! On my server! You just can't access it 😂 😂
imma head out now if paper chan isn't still there when I wake imma be unhappy
cya!
gfdi mini
if it is still here i will be angry
Mad because bad?
mad because sad
cool thing i don't use your websites
is your website ie6 compatible
No.
You Never used my mapping viewer before?
I'm still on firefox both mobile and desktop, don't care enough to switch lol 😄
69 HAHAHAH
f ire fox when
The only way you get IE6 compatible is to make websites like it's 2009
let me be honest and out of jokes this time: I don't remember
why is the re a pocket in my web browser
you got a mapping viewer?
Why is Firefox losing market share?
MiniMappingViewer
Every page Google controls has an ad for Chrome if you aren't already using it
h u h, never used it
That's globally, including mobile
let it grow like cancer
cool
Eh that includes phones
Which is how most ppl interact with the internet
edge chromium sure
Meh
at least, thats my results from my test of playing back youtube on both factory Firefox and Google Chrome
True
where's the /s, i don't see it anywhere
Surprised safari that high
i need internet explorer support
Apple
i used chrome when my pc was a potato, if you say that junk is snappy ill give you a video of my all in one pc opening chrome while roblox is open and show how slow it was
ro blox ?
Vivaldi 
john apple
Apple pro 🦾
Safari is the new internet explorer
simple, every browser in iOS is safari reskinned lul
If firefox is shit, safari is the devil
i love webkit
Safari is k, but, defo not a daily user for me
That's worth an antitrust!
Yes
no complete tech monopolies yet smh
Safari is usually the snappiest on macOS and definitely uses the least power
does that mean the google browser is just safari?
I mean, they forked apples webkit years ago
10% Safari desktop usage means Apple laptops and desktops have probably 12% marketshare
On Ios, aPPLE is banning all browsers that don't use their shitty browser engine
yeah, just the same engine, with a skin and fancy shit like Google sync or whatever
ouch
I hated safari on my MacBook
Pog, Apple is so good at discontinuing support with stuff!
Chrome on mobile doesn't support extensions, FF does. And my FF containers on desktop 
yes
Apple isn't just doing that now, Apple has always banned third party browser engines
Like, most of us techies just use it to download another browser
But, for your average mac user, who cares?
Even worse, there was a time when safari used a more modern browser engine, any everybody else was stuck using outdated crap because mighty apply didn't allow them to upgrade
it's a competent web browser and bar some corners of the internet is well supported
It's the least supported modern browser cat
Safari is what all the people with money use
Modern as in, still updated
yes, but there are very few sites in your day to day use which don't support it
Heck, Safari still doest support the web push api
i think i love paper-chan
why
It's settled
you aare biased and nitpicking i win
That's number of web features supported
You're looking at it from a dev aspect
daily users don't give a shit about dev aspects
That's what supported means
they want something which is light and works
dunkey reference, i approve
:D
I was gonna test something
and then I booted up an arch vm and now updating to pray that it fixes my display
otherwise I gotta go into hell to work out why the fuck it's showing up on the wrong tty
yes but chrome is the devil's browser
Seems dns related
⚠️We are aware of an issue affecting the Azure Portal and Azure services, please visit our alternate Status Page here https://t.co/vGS3TQ8shs for more information and updates.
backup status page lol
Nope, the page they link in there also doesn't work
It works for me
Yea, works here
But like, if dns is down, you have a bad time
I also have ppl reporting the main status page works for them sooooo
Who thought putting the status page for azure on *.azure.com was a good idea?
all there is the thing at the top
microsoft status pages are worthless
even if you could reach it, it'd just say it was all fine
Why isn't it?
Because their DNS is fucked
because if your DNS infra shits bricks...
LOL XBOX IS DOWN
So I can't load that page
What's xbox?
Azure dns is fucked
Anything that accesses anything in the azure domain seems fucked
Including bing 
And minecraft.net
NOOOOOOOO
imagine if they've shutdown the dns for april fools
I approve
so is the joke here that cat can be used to print the content of files?
Just scroll to the bottom
idk i think vuln logos are cool
ah the classics https://twitter.com/dakami/status/1377724731101642752
everybody gangsta until april 1st ends and paper doesn't change server icon
100 people left because of the change, now only weebs remain
lmao
#worthit
Tab discord changing to PaperMC like
for sure
I noticed that like 4 hours ago
I looked at server list for whole day
and noticed that 4 hours ago
i noticed like 5 minutes after the change
I was like "Back to the old logo I see... Why is the chat topic so different now?"

me, sure, the people who left because of anime girl, probably not so much lol
god I can't look at teletubbies anymore without something in my head screaming "AMONG US"
Love paper-chan lol
I'm going stir crazy
vaccine soon pls
"staying in the server for 24 hours crashes everyone!!"

this is beautiful
how many request you sent in 
a few thousand
that system didnt even get me in, i got in through a friend whose husband works at a clinic and he had extra doses

wait a second....
the official system is stupid
no, paper-chan is our mascot.
good good
not april fools.
no april fools that is good
👍
love is temporary
paper-chan is eternal
correct

How much crack were the team who were in charge of optimising the game on? https://youtu.be/Dx5u_9mCggI?
like seriously
its a triple a game, it should at least not turn into a powerpoint when i get shot at
scuffed pc
It should turn into a LaTeX Beamer presentation?
i guess life remains sad
It’s call of duty lol
A game designed for consoles, it hasn’t been very good on PC for a long time, war zone is like the first time since 2006
what happend to the server image
A console is a computer
It was upgraded

Lmao
the MW engine is actually pretty solid
It should be, it's quake
the previous iterations of the engine before MW (2019) just feel like a console port to pc
with the newer one it actually feels like a PC game
Oh that's right, they did that stupid thing where they reused a name
The old ones were based on the Q3A engine, MW (2019) was apparently an almost complete rewrite
yeah
I wonder if the term you're looking for is "arcade" rather than "console" 😛
Or they just did a shit job with it but Q3A obviously was a PC engine

I don't think I've played one past Black Ops and usually played on console (was with my cousins, zombies and such)
i used to go to this place called the dime arcade, it was so fun. sad it's gone now. every game was a dime, had a blast there for hours
random
Why?
Why is this icon bad?
I know Anime is controversial, but why is it controversial?
paper-chan is here to stay
it's best to just worship it
Oh, that was bad wording on my part. Meant to say the Manga/Anime art style.
the ears... are paper planes.. or is it a headband attachment?
Headband
i think it's a headband attachment because of that thing holding the hair down at the forehead
yea
You can see bits of the human ears between the hair too.
eeeeh i still don't see how an art style can be "controversial" but meh
it's just a drawing
nothing bad lmao
some people left because of a literal drawing
Yo can you do HTML / CSS in IntelliJ?

?
Wait
who did the patting on the head animation again
did u end up making it so her eyes squint or was it too hard
was it that astro girl who made it? i cant remember
sheesh is that u in ur pfp
my boy jacked
u do calisthenics?
just BB actually
you do anything?
I have a feeling there is a woman named Allison who owns the email allykat@gmail.com

I just poke through spam every so often to make sure I didn't miss something
Yes
I was thinking New Zealand
Although it's kind of... not New Zealand?
Niue ( or ; Niuean: Niuē) is an island country in the South Pacific Ocean, 2,400 kilometres (1,500 mi) northeast of New Zealand. Niue's land area is about 261 square kilometres (101 sq mi) and its population, predominantly Polynesian, was about 1,600 in 2016. Niue is located in a triangle between Tonga, Samoa, and the Cook Islands. It is 604 kil...

Yeah, I thought NZ was on the other side of the line
The main island is, this one isn't
their anthem sounds like videogame music
That's because it's a MIDI of their anthem 😛
ah I see yeah, thought that was an official recording for some reason
Nothing is worse than buying new monitors and not being able to get a better gpu while you're at it
Just got three (one still on the way) 27" monitors
upgraded from my mix of samsung, dell and ASUS
What'd you get?
I wasn't too worried about refresh rate as I don't game on them too often
However, when i got them they were much cheaper, had a deal going for a day
Nice
I got 2 of these https://www.lg.com/us/monitors/lg-27gn950-b-gaming-monitor

I can't imagine having three, my desk would have to be like 8' long
I think in total I paid like $300+
I paid... a little more than that
I only got two to start with... but after dealing with just two and a big empty space I caved
much easier to read code with imo
what is the latest java lts edition?
11
not 16?
nope
oh ok
you want to use 11
That's the latest release, not the latest lts
^
16 is better but is breaks some plugins doing funny things with reflection
yeah ik but it seems like time to create a new lts imo
ok maybe not
17 will be Lts
nvm
it's every 3 years
8 came out in 2014, 11 came out in 2018, 17 will be out in September
ok tysm
also paper/paper api doesnt have that weird openjdk license thing where the builds are in a different license then the source code right?
They're both GPL
paper and paper api
ok
Well, technically they're in a legal grey area that's probably fine so long as you don't ship it
wait the builds too right and not like openjdk
The source code is in a legal grey area, paperclip is fine, the builds are straight up illegal to redistribute
So I guess they are different 😛
This is true for Spigot too btw
Because Minecraft isn't GPL
well bukkit/spigot/paper is based on mojang's code, which is proprietary
oh wait nvm
so that's the root of the issue
You're violating Mojang's copyright and since it isn't GPL you're also violating that license so violating everyone else's copyright too
paper's patches are gpl/mit, spigot's patches are proprietary
That's why the source code is distributed as patch files and the builds are distributed as a binary patching tool
but in the end, the builds are still gpl licensed?
yeah spigot's licensing is a mystery
You can use them, you can't give them to anyone
(since copyright controls distribution)
Spigot's patches aren't a mystery, they are proprietary
then why was paper allowed to use them?
md_5 decided the license situation wasn't fucked up enough
Paper is patches on top of Spigot
You're the one that's downloading Spigot and applying the patches when you make a build
Legal grey area, probably allowed
spigot is fine because it would be incredibly risky for him to sue anyone
Unless I misunderstand something you are not, that is included in paperclip
the only thing that is downloaded is the vanilla server, and then it is patched
Yeah, fair point, paperclip starts from vanilla
But if any of us tried to sue over this stuff Mojang's fancy sounding lawyers in London would be in touch
They're fun
true
ok maybe i should stop worrying about this?
probably for the best
Just don't distribute server jars and you're fine
if you want sane licensing, minecraft is the last place to look
If only people weren't so scummy we wouldn't have to worry so damn much about a license
yeah most fun minecraft stuff operates illegally/gray zone
"people" in this case includes Curse and Mojang too
I was aiming more towards those who steal code and profit, but that too
fun note, as does almost all video game youtube/streaming content (operates in a legal illegal/gray area)
no mojang allows that
what does curse actually do with all of this? Always been a bit unclear on their involvement
machine did say "almost"
Curse used to own Bukkit (and paid at least some of the original developers to work on it)
Mojang bought the project and team from Curse
Nintendo blocks a shitton of game play videos
No one told anyone else about any of this
No idea if Curse or Mojang ever owned the copyright for the stuff those 4 worked on or not
Mojang should offer a community API instead of having people run their game in a gray area, but then again, you'll see a unicorn before that
They do offer an api
datapacks 
only for bedrock i think

We were under the impression Curse was a partnership where we got services and they got ad money, not that they owned the project and people were getting paid to do what we were now doing for free
they should just allow spigot/paper
And we had no idea that legally speaking Mojang owned the project as much as anyone can be said to own an open source project
Mojang had plans to but dropped the idea
They have datapacks, and, well, they couldn't offer something on the level that forge/bukkit based stuff do
I wonder if their plans for a replacement for BukkitDev ran in to contract issues
It definitely had "we have no API to target" issues
I mean parts of datapacks are fine, but command functions in replacement of an actual api
But it was going to be a Forge, MCP, Bukkit, etc thing as a stopgap
you have to consider all the aspects, e.g. the time it would take to make something like an API without just exposing server internals, the work to expose aspects of the game in a useful manner, documenting the new system and testing it, as well as getting two large communities to jump ship
You know, other games don't fret so much over compatibility
You upgraded Skyrim from 1.2.9.23 to 1.2.9.27? Half your mods just broke, good job
Maybe because its java
Imagine not properly following semver
Java devs love backwards compatibility
language has nothing to do with it
Compatibility mattered when updates came out once a week or once a month but now they're every 12-18 months
That was a great fucking surprise.
I mean, where it makes sense, sure, but, like, in the quest of hampering stuff, no
Like, maintaining an API is basically an entire seperate teams task in the scale of mojang
If people have to update/rewrite their mod every 12-18 months that's not a big deal
and, well, mojang do actually interact with the community
Every other game works like that
I liked the day where curse told us that our unpaid bukkitdev staff weren't doing a good enough job, so they wanted us to for free train our paid replacements on how to moderate bukkitdev.
We got RGB added to chat in like 2 weeks
LOL
"the kids on the forums are acting like they owe us something, why not follow their lead?"
And that's why the rest of the staff also quit 😄
rightfully so
wait till you find out mojang owns paper
wait until you find out kashike knows
Honestly, Mojang owning Paper wouldn't be that bad imo
But just somewhat supporting the project would be enough, and maybe they are doing that already, idk
Remember when a Mojang employee suggested we should suck it up and keep doing things anyway because otherwise we didn't care about the community?
when was that
@FallenYouthMC @drtshock @BebopVox @Marc_IRL Agreed. And here I thought these people actually cared about the community.
idk about mojang but big corporations seem to ruin projects and basically ea them
but idk mojang
Oh god I forgot about this bullshit https://bukkit.org/threads/mojang-and-the-bukkit-project.309715/
We think it’s about time we said something about the Bukkit Project and our connection with it. Hopefully this will help to clear up some...
Mojang as a developer seems pretty decent in recent years
microsoft hasn't ruined MC really has it?
That post said nothing, promised nothing, and just tried to make sure everyone understood it wasn't their fault

maybe that's why paper 2.0 happened
People thought it meant Mojang was going to start paying people to pick up where we left off though so they were happy for a few days/weeks
mojang made them do it
what's that
it's what we're living in right now
and mojang owns paper?
lol im new dont judge
i can tell
not that we know of
no, they don't as far as we know
as far as we know
but maybe paper 2.0 happened because mojang bought them and made them change their standards 😉
Paper chan was directly caused by mojang!?
i hear the cat is just in it for the money!
mojang is a weeb!
yes
Ofc
Its a test for the new Mojang logo, soon we will see Paper-chan everytime when you switch resource packs or start the game
Its a test for creeper kun
good lord
The official Minecraft Server software that we have made available is not included in CraftBukkit.
some of you need to go outside and smell fresh air

It would make things easier if that was the case, but meh
what would be nice if mojang's decisions were based on anything other than money
but 'tis a business
I mean it's clear they aren't entirely. Such as releasing mappings, and just recently no longer talking out that testing framework or whatever (never really heard of it myself)
yeah not entirely
both things that people here have requested
the devs still seem to love the game and want to help the community
but the upper execs and management
Its not about the money, you can't just open source your ip and still maintain full control
The only part where Mojang really seems like they want to make money is the bedrock edition will all those store microtransactions
👀
oh i'm not talking about open sourcing it, i'm just complaining about mojang
that's what i mean
they should loosen up the eula
imo
what money?!
i could sell a diamond sword with sharpness 5000 on it right now and mojang wouldn't do anything to me
smh don't lie to us
The roubles
You haven't verified your tax Forms yet cat we can't pay you yet
we know what you're hiding
that mojang money you're getting under the table
oh ok when did they change the eula?
like a year ago
I disagree with their eula, but, I can understand whhhy they felt the need to put their foot down
agreed
I'm in firm belief that if shitty servers didn't exist, they'd be much more lax
probably, but you have servers selling actual gambling in lootboxes, or selling other super shady stuff to children
I mean shitty servers are shitty imo. They're marketing to young kids who don't know better
that kinda stuff is completely scummy
and, well, back in the IRC days, paper never really had any rules outside of "don't be a cunt"
so it does now
Didn't they also reformat the EULA recently with more fair and clear terminology? The only ones that should be hit by the bans are serious offenders
the rules were even very lax until paper 2.0 in general
And, well, as we grew, that sorta no longer worked, especially in the modern hyper political/sensitive world
what rules?
in that context, the community guidelines of paper
ye
https://papermc.io/community-guidelines for the long version
sell cosmetic entitlements, except for "Capes," which we define as anything that attempts to visually emulate the feature of a Minecraft player Cape.
cough badlion, optifine....
Yea, mojang just sorta like... gr8 enforcement skills...
but badlion sells "cloaks"!
mojang doesn't want to fight that fight
yeah
maybe they can once 1.17 is out and we have vannilla shaders
plus players will literally just get mad
i forgot the exact number but like 5% of java multiplayer players have an optifine cape?
Quite a lot, yeah
wouldn't surprise me
mojang goes after optifine, they're just screwing over those players
Optifine was essentially an essential at one point
the dev has to make money somehow
so do we
but we follow the guidelines
this guy gets away with making MILLIONS off of violating them
honestly i'm not really that big in the mc community but fabric like it has a much nicer ecosystem
fabric has its fair share of issues too lol
Although he could sell anything and people would buy it to an extent
hats or something idk
yeah
fabric has some nice stuff, but, their community.. er...
he just chose to violate the EULA
heard forge and optifine devs don't like each other very much
he even calls them donations lol

wtf it costs $10 for an optifine cape
Look who is talking 🧐
that dude is massively rich off of it
Hey I waved 😛
he upped the price a while back
We should get youth pastor ryan in our community
has sold at least 1-2 million capes
used to be less than half that
I bet we could taint him
There was at least one mod developer making like $5k/mo on Patreon for a while
lol the seus guy was makinig like 50k a month
might still be
at least he doesnt break the rules
I mean, these community is horrifically underfunded
Oh, I was talking about an actual mod, thaumcraft or something
he makes $60k per month now
and yet people expect that people are practically fulltiming it
mojang offered to buy optifine, no?
But wow, that's even crazier
Paper devs live in poverty
i wouldn't sell optifine
Pretty sure he was pay walling some of his stuff
$60k/mo is enough to hire a dev team 😛
i'd keep making millions lol
Yeah, 7000 patrons, 60k per month
optifine dev wanted to keep the income streams or get enough money from Mojang to offset them forever, basically
does he have a team now or is he still soloing it? idk lol
That was the gist I got of it
but yeah mojang really fucked up with optifine and it annoys me that they (optifine devs) just get a free pass
seus kinda deserves the amount of stonks hes getting tbh
These days optifine doesn't even make the game run faster
Or, well, people would, but, there'd likely be a lot of flak, somebody else starting their own project, and, well, yaaarrr
We are getting closer to a point where optifine is no longer needed tho
At least a lot of the resource pack stuff is in vanilla by now
yeah optifine is only worth the shaders now
Well, I think it still helps a little on Intel stuff from 2015 and such
it's much easier to offer something which people can show off
and custom entities
Well, in the limited case of optifine
fabric mods are far superior
Right, people install it for all the features instead of the perf
i still use potato and with optifine game go brrrrrr
so it definitely still does
Try Sodium
Lets take paper, however, outside of paywalling our builds, there is very little that we could magically offer to get people to pay
Bedrock has custom entities, so I am hopeful Java will get them as well
maybe in 5 years
I hear the new intel gpu card is pretty good
I'd try if my gpu didn't throw access violation in any version since 1.15
