I’ve been using the app Surfboard through TestFlight, and it’s really nice!
Honestly just using it in a browser is pretty good too imo
Weird! I'm still reading through the second book but I'll have to check it out once I'm done!
Even though they're usually not great I love analyzing the differences between adaptations and their source material
I had no idea this existed! Did they just skip the first book though?
This is the #1 most important tip lol
Those proprietary memory sticks were really expensive even when they were being actively manufactured, can’t imagine what they must cost now
Haven’t tried it out yet, but supposedly the newest update makes calckey work with some mastodon clients!
I’m hosting my own calckey instance now, but before that I was on techhub.social which was really nice!
Almost this exact thing happened last year on mastodon after the Twitter meltdown, once everyone’s settled on their new sites the meta posts should calm down quite a bit.
I've been in a pattern lately where I feel like I've actually gotten a little worse at the game after reading up on a lot of strategy. I've found a lot of my 19x19 wins recently have either been from getting lucky with an opponent making a mistake, or playing against someone that's a few ranks below me. When I lose it's usually a blowout, this is one of the closer games I've had recently: https://online-go.com/game/54507315
Would love some advice on where I'm needing the most improvement right now! I feel like I'm making pretty good plays in the opening to establish some influence, but as soon as my opponent starts going on the offensive my strategy kind of falls apart
Review Thread?
One of the main aspects of the subreddit I enjoy is the monthly review/help threads. even though I never actually posted in one for help, reading through the reviews left for other people's games always felt really helpful as someone starting out with the game!
This community isn't particularly active (yet) but I think part of that has to do with the relatively limited amount of Go content there is to post on a daily basis. I think promoting more discussion and advice threads may help to grow the community here!
I'll go ahead and post one of my games in the comments, and I'd be happy to look over anyone else's, although right now OGS puts me at 15kyu so I'm not sure how helpful my analysis would be.
Lemmy and kbin are both similar to Reddit in functionality, but are two separate projects. Lemmy runs on rust, and kbin runs on php. Luckily both lemmy and kbin use ActivityPub, which means that users on each platform can see and interact with content from the other platform! Right now Lemmy is the more popular option, so most of the big communities are hosted on Lemmy servers, hence kbin being missed.
Essentially, if you’re already registered on a Lemmy instance and are enjoying that, you don’t really need to worry about kbin, but if you check it out and prefer the interface, you could register on a kbin instance and still access all the same content you were seeing on Lemmy.
