the guy at the gallows β€œfirst time” meme but with the unity debacle

i jumped on godot already in 2017 because i long ago vowed never again to use proprietary, drm software for my creative projects, after yoyogames abandoned the gamemaker 8 series and shut down the drm servers

at long last, I am pleased to announce the "touchHLE app compatibility database"!

https://appdb.touchhle.org/

instead of a manually curated "app compatibility list", there's now a database that anyone can contribute to. if you find an iPhone OS 2.x app that works, you can add it!

some notes:

  • all reports are moderated before they become public
  • as a precautionary measure, you can't submit a new report if your previous report hasn't been approved yet. I know this is annoying, sorry. I may adjust this down the road if all goes well.
  • you can upload screenshots! yay
  • please bear in mind that it's more useful to know about working apps than broken ones, and you should only test apps that have a chance of working (iOS 2 apps)

btw, I wrote the web app over the last 10 days and it's open source ^^ https://github.com/hikari-no-yume/app-compatibility-db

so uh, I should probably make microblog accounts for touchHLE already. I already run my own fediverse instance, but it's enough of a hassle to host my own posts, I don't want to host the touchHLE Brand Accountβ„’'s as well.

so uhh… are there any emulation-themed or emulation-friendly instances you could recommend?

so, a friend has been trying to learn to program for the past year and a half or so, by doing coding puzzles. I've helped her a bit! when she wanted a bigger project, she started writing QR code generator entirely from scratch, in Rust, which is incredibly tricky. and look!! 😭
