A simple MUD server in Python which can be run on a Raspberry Pi
That's awesome, thanks!
I am aware of Inform 7, I think it is awesome. A few months ago I made a quick demo using Inklescript[1], which I found simpler and more suitable to my project (a Star Trek adventure). Inform 7 remains something I wish to explore in the future when I need something more complex.
Thanks! ;)

About Text based games,basically
As others have said, Twine is really a great starting point for text or choice-based games. If you'd like to get into the weeds a little more, I'd also shout out Ink, which is incredibly flexible and really fun imo, altho it def requires a bit more coding experience.

- Text adventure ported to social media
- Free websites for writing branching plot lines?

Any other devs that have / are making choose your own adventures?
On the technology side, you might want to check out Inkle: https://www.inklestudios.com/ink/

How to get into narrative design with no coding/programming experience?
Start writing in ink or twine.

Narrative Game Design
Otherwise, Inkle is also quite good. (and people have made players for it in Unreal and Unity, so it's not hard to attach to existing game projects.) I don't think it has the nifty visual flowchart though, if that's a piece you care about.

Are there any tools for designing the story of a dating sim?
I really like Ink. The developers made tons of games with it like the Sorcery! series, so it has a good foundation, and it's quite easy to write and organize, more than twine in my opinion.

Help me organize inkJam 2023
Like every year, I'm organizing inkJam: a narrative oriented gamejam around the ink language. You can find last year's edition on itch.io

Whats this menu bar/progress called? and is there a crate which can give similar result?
You'd want to build it yourself using a mixture of something like inquire or dialoguer and a spinner library like the one I linked or indicatif.

Port Sniffer made in Rust
This appears to clear the screen. Users don't really like this :( Instead I'd use a library to update the progress, maybe https://github.com/console-rs/indicatif ?

[Media] Nebulabrot rendered with Rust — Explanations in the comments
This uses rand and xcomplex to handle the mathematics, png to write image files, and dialoguer and indicatif for some pretty prompts and progress bars.

What's everyone working on this week (34/2022)?
It's pretty much WIP at this point. Currently trying to use indicatif to add nice and fancy progress bars. I'm having some struggles with it but slowly getting there and the overall process is pretty fun 😌
