Due to the votes here I was thinking of revising it a bit to do a similar format to how c/programming is handled since theres a bunch of votes for both options.
So c/gamedev exists as a collector community for all gamedev content and theres the subcommunities for the different kinds of content.
This still gives a central location but gives granularity for those that want that
Keep all content in this community
Create the gamedev_news community
Your site activity here is fine, would be happy to have you. Already went through and dmed a couple people that that priority for the role before making a post here so going mostly off of fcfs for people that are at least decently active around various parts of the instance
If you pass me your discord account I can add you to the admin chats
Maybe around 5 hours a week. Definitely depends on what tasks youre doing though and for some things its mostly spread out in small intervals. No specific day that its concentrated on currently. tends to depend more on events in the space
Will send you a dm
Update here, for anyone else who hasnt already posted space is filled but if you want you can still post for if we ever need admins again in the future
modded
for this one im fine if you want to repost the idea in the community request community
Mostly depends on the question content
If its related to the instance topics in any way its fine here or in no stupid questions
(if related to experienced devs then it fits in ask exp devs, related to cs as a career then cs career questions)
If not then it might fit in [email protected]
If not then [email protected] exists as a collector for everything else and could also get a new community started for specifically that (although I assume itll fit into one of the other two categories)
Theres no official pronounciation
The most common ones are guh-dough & go-dough (+ other variations) with the t silent, but the lead developer as well as a bunch of others call it go-dot and some people put the d in the first syllable instead to do things like god-oo
Q&A with devs talking about it
