Thundernerd··on Show HN: Tab O' War, a TBH like piracy game
It took a bit for me to realize what broadside and hull meant even though apparently it was "explained" on the right side.

Perhaps a small introduction could be worthwhile?

I like the way it looks though, effects are nice, it's smooth!

Thundernerd··on Beyond All Reason (Free Total Annihilation Inspired RTS)
Is it PVP only or can I play this against bots as well?

I would like to play it but the comments about the community make it so that I never want to touch PVP with a 10ft pole.

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Concord – Voice chat released Feature rich TUI for discord
Just an FYI: the project's name, Concord, is shared with arguably one of the biggest flops in the gaming industry. Not sure if you want to associate with that.
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Number Gacha, a gacha game distilled to its essence
Absolutely fantastic. Gave me a good chuckle as it very much captures the essence of gacha games!
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Swipe Copilot – Less time on Tinder, more dates worth going on
This feels dystopian in a way. I don't think I would be happy finding out that the other person I went on a date with used an AI bot to swipe through profiles.
Thundernerd··on SystemD is of out of control. The Best Minimal, Modern, Linux alternative
I was expecting to read why systemd is out of control but the only thing mentioned is this:

> While systemd is a powerful init system, it has grown far beyond its original purpose, adding features like age verification that many feel don't belong in a core OS component.

Is there a better explanation as to why it is out of control?

Thundernerd··on Show HN: I built a zero-tracking news hub to escape doomscrolling at (AGE 17y)
Stop posting dude. This is the 5th time you're posting this and at this point it feels like it's going against the guidelines of not primarily using HN for promotion.
Thundernerd··on Zed 1.0
Just downloaded it and installed the C# language plugin because I need to use that for work. For some unknown reason the program grinds to an absolute halt. I cannot even close it properly anymore. If I type something it appends roughly one character per second.

Not sure if it is the plugin or something else, but unfortunately makes it very hard to try out for me.

Thundernerd··on Show HN: The Alphabetical Clock
Love the look of that! Really cool
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Yappy – A Python TUI to automate LinkedIn yapping
Doesn't this just add to the problem? I do find it funny though, having an AI automate this.

Absolutely despise the whole LinkedIn nonsense posts though. That said, I don't really browse it leisurely lol.

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Gryt – self-hosted, open-source Discord-style voice chat
Definitely one to go into my bookmarks. I'm definitely keeping my eyes on discord competitors with the whole age verification fiasco right now, though I already was keeping an eye on them.

Do you have a public roadmap? If I ever was to introduce a new messaging app to my friend groups then I would need to ensure it matches all their standards, lol. Also good for keeping up-to-date with the project of course!

All the best with the project, hope it gets traction!

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Gametje – A casual online gaming platform
I don't think it looks as AI generated as people say. It might not be the most flashy UI but it looks good enough to me. Good luck with the launch!

I have to say that as a Dutch person it always pains me to see products launch internationally with a Dutch name, for some reason it just feels super cringy. Do other people who's native language isn't English have that as well with their own language?

Thundernerd··on Show HN: I got bored and built an idle clicker game
Dangit. You nerfed autoclickers huh..

ETA: it is a bit too harsh though. It thinks I'm using it when I'm just clicking fast :(

Thundernerd··on Show HN: I was tired of people dmming me just "hi", so I made this - NoGreeting
Seems you are familiar with https://nohello.net/en/ already
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Pong Wars Idle Game
Doesn't run very well past the beginning. Performance drops significantly once you start getting the bounce power upgrades and results into seeing this at 1fps: https://ibb.co/dHhqpzv

Aside from that, funny idea though

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Apicat – A Lightweight Offline Postman Alternative
Definitely feels misleading
Thundernerd··on Show HN:wheretowatch.stream-availability by season with dubbed and subtitled ver
Always good to see something like this, especially since media is spread so far and wide these days.

How does this compare to JustWatch?

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Mylinux: a minimalist Linux disro by a 13 year old
Have you incorporated all the feedback from the previous times you've posted?

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Mylinux Made by Me
I have a couple of suggestions:

1. The url for the website doesn't seem to work, it should most likely be this: https://pro1234123.github.io/Mylinux

2. I would recommend going more in depth about what this distro is doing different versus others. The current list of bullet points are very generic and don't really explain anything.

3. Maybe you could make more use of the repository itself to upload all the scripts that you've been using or something along those lines to create this distro. Lots of people want to be able to see into the inner workings and maybe tinker with it themselves!

Anyhow, good luck with the project :)

Thundernerd··on Show HN: I Built an AI That Helps You Text Your Girlfriend Better
This ain't it, chief.
Thundernerd··on Show HN: I've build a Tik-Tok styled app, but for GitHub
While I don't necessarily see myself using this much, I think it is a fun idea!

I do want to mention that the buymeacoffee button is a bit invasive as I initially assumed it was for the repository owner seeing as it is located in the section with repository info, and not the developer of gitscroll.dev

Thundernerd··on Show HN: AI-native browser game that users can craft unlimited 3D items
Okay so you made something that combines a couple of items into a new item, cool. There's no gameplay here though.
Thundernerd··on Show HN: The Fastest URL Shortener Built with Rust
That's how fast it is. It already generated a shortened link before you even typed it!
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Handheld Hunt – Explore and compare handheld consoles
At first glance this looks interesting and useful. I am however not sure if I'm just blind or it is not possible to filter entries? I would like to be able to filter entries on things like: OS, CPU, GPU, or battery.
Thundernerd··on Show HN: My wife and I created a free tool to (legally) take down scam websites
Does it show you what it generated before sending it, or do we just have to hope that it makes sense and hasn't interpreted anything incorrectly?
Thundernerd··on Show HN: I built a climbing-based VR puzzle game
I'm pretty sure I'll get motion sick if I'd play this but it does look really cool!
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Quick Cursor – One hand mode for Android. New edge actions feature
I appreciate you applied all those hacks to make it work though! Even though I do not have any disabilities I will definitely be using this. I do have an Android tablet and it will definitely be useful on that size!

Hopefully it gets picked up by both of them and they hire you to make it without any hacks :)

Thundernerd··on Show HN: Quick Cursor – One hand mode for Android. New edge actions feature
Amazed how this isn't a standard accessibility feature. Great idea, good execution! Shame my main device is an iPhone.
Thundernerd··on Show HN: Don't Buy Games – Your guide to game subscription services
Looks nice. Are you planning on adding more services? E.g. Twitch Prime Gaming or PS Plus?
Thundernerd··on Show HN: TypeSchema – A JSON format to describe data models
Looks useful. One thing that I noticed is that the 'Model with inheritance' example uses extends instead of : for C#. AFAIK C# doesn't use extends.

Is there a way to contribute? I wouldn't mind peeking a look and potentially fixing the issue myself :).
