Normally, mods direct us to write in dev logs- but most people wont follow these- and sometimes people just want to post a little thing that they got done.

I think a showcase channel would do this server well- not for showing off full projects, just for little things.
Etc if i finished a particle system or added recoil to my guns that i'm proud of. I assume it should be a fairly relaxed channel so people can give some feedback on things to.

Currently a lot of small little showcase things get posted in #💻┃unity-talk and are always redirected to make a #1180170818983051344 post, which then proceeds to get 0 views.

They DID have a channel for that, then REMOVED it to add dev-logs actually

Hm, i dont see why one would need to be removed for the other to exist.

Dev logs for following along with specific projects, showcase for just seeing what people are up to or posting minor progresd

runic parrot Hm, i dont see why one would need to be removed for the other to exist. Dev log...

I would disagree that is what dev logs is for. I think it's fine for a developer to log their personal progress, instead of the progress of a project

But yeah, I dunno. I didn't make the choice haha

I was also quite bummed to see the showcase channel gone, it was always nice to get some inspiration and just see what people were up to. I'm not particularely interested in reading full devlogs, just a neat screenshot or video here and there

yeah, I agree -- it's nice to just see a stream of little things
