  • Burning money on paid ads for a dev tool – what we've learned
    2 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 29 Sep 2023
    Sure.

    High Fidelity, sort of. Failed commercial project to develop a sort of VR world from the same guy that made Second Life. Their advertising honestly cheesed me off and seemed to reek of desperation. Their adoption of cryptocurrency didn't help either. What did was that despite that they had promising technology people I knew talked about, so I did check it out despite all my initial misgivings, and it was good enough for me to stick around there for a good while. When they gave up, I was part of the group of people that tried to keep things going, which eventually became a non-profit I'm now a member of, https://overte.org/

    Resonite. The new version of NeosVR, still in development. Happened after an ideological split. I heard of NeosVR mostly from Reddit discussion and friends who love the system.

    Linux Weekly News. Only news site I pay for, they post interesting highly technical information. Pretty sure I heard them mentioned in Linux discussion spaces.

    Linode -- Same deal, Linux users that use their services. Now it's much bigger, I signed up back in the early days, back when they used User-mode Linux, and had no SSDs.

  • Exa Is Deprecated

    Oh, I mean we started a non-profit to support our particular project (https://overte.org/), not that we've got a general purpose organization providing service to whoever needs it.

    So I'm not sure we're we're a good fit, in that we're neither something comparable to Code Shelter, nor unmaintained.

  • Flatpak Is Not the Future
    6 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 21 Aug 2023
    I think it's an unfortunate necessity for some kinds of applications.

    Eg, we make this: https://overte.org/

    We're currently using AppImage because that was the first thing that worked for us, but most of the reasons are the same either way: We want to spend time developing the software, and that means it's hard to justify packaging every release for a dozen distributions. And I'd say nobody particularly wants to do it.

    We also expect our users to keep reasonably up to date, not whenever it's convenient to the distribution. Code changes can change the networking protocol, and some of those can require everyone to upgrade.

    So at least to me it makes perfect sense to package some kinds of applications this way. Maybe not KDE's calculator, but definitely things like games and tools with specialized markets, where it may be difficult to find people wanting to do the work of packaging them for a distribution.

  • The Quite OK Audio Format for Fast, Lossy Compression
    3 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 9 Aug 2023
    It's probably something we (https://overte.org/) can use.

    We have a 3D environment with spatial audio. Audio is encoded server-side, and since it's spatial everyone needs their own mix. We're using Opus, and audio encoding turns out to be the usual limiting factor on small servers.

    So this kind of thing is exactly up our alley: an alternate option that uses less CPU than Opus, but consumes less bandwidth than raw audio.

    But adding supporting for FLAC is also on our list. It seems nicely performant when compared to Opus.

  • How do you personally take advantage of Linux’s open source nature

    More practically, I currently work on a former commercial project that was luckily open source. Thanks to that, we can keep it going!
  • Seeking list of blockchain criticisms for Metaverse design

    It's still early work in progress, but Matrix itself is already an amazing project, a bit like Discord, but decentralized and end-to-end encrypted. Open source project I'm contributing to is called Overte, and is like decentralized/self-hosted VRchat, but with possiblity of building virtual worlds in-game. It's maintained by a non-profit foundation. Here's our website: https://overte.org/
