Yes, you're right. I personally leave NSFW toggled on and go ahead to manually block every single community I don't want to see.

Got it, but on the other hand (and as someone else commented): With the right settings, VB.NET can be en par with C#, for instance. They both compile to the same MCIL code, so it should really boil down to a matter of personal preference, right?

I feel that many people don't know that and tend to think back to C64 Basic, etc. and just laugh it off.

I mostly use it for personal projects, yes. I also enjoy other "hated" languages like PHP and Java. To me, they're just tools to accomplish a task. I also like to play the UNO reverse card: I personally hate projects that run with Electron, for instance. Such a waste of resources, things don't integrate well into the DE, etc.

You could disable NSFW in your profile or use a service like lemmyverse.net to find communities to subscribe to.

May I just ask how VB.NET code isn't maintainable? Not attacking you here, just out of curiosity. My board game server and client together amount to multiple thousand lines of code, as they're very feature rich and at the moment, it's not really hard for me to maintain things. It's not public yet, though. Still active development phase.

I can use both VB.NET syntax and also C# syntax just fine. I'd even go as far and state that, apart from the syntax, VB.NET is just as good as C# (after some settings adjustments, like Option Strict On, etc.).

I do understand that Visual Basic syntax is kinda alien, though.

Why not? I'm currently in the process of creating another server / client for the board game go, also known as baduk or wei'qi.

So, if they find out, won't they take a look at who used the stolen miles? Aren't you worried about that?

I already have my own instance and only so much time! But you'll find someone. You could post over at /c/mod_recruit@lemmy.world to find people willing to moderate. My personal belief is that a Community first needs a little bit of activity before trying to recurit someone.

Don't worry about it. lol.

Btw., subbed to your new community. I'm a Linux user of 19 or so years and I love everything about it.

Don't worry about it. Glad it worked!

Mine allows free community creation and is nowhere near overloaded. I also put a lot of effort in maintenance, etc. Shameless plug, I know. But honestly, I don't care if people use my instance or not. I just think we need to spread the load, that's all.
