<p>This is a very important and good change. Currently Discord communities are black holes of information.<p>Especially for communities that have valuable discussions and support going on in Discord, Obsidian or Astro come to my mind, this is super helpful.<p>I do wonder about their motivations behind this, making the web a more open and user friendly place is obviously good for the users, how does Discord profit from this? Forcing users into creating an account to view valuable information seemed like a profitable thing for Discord.</p>

<p>As most sites will have horrible CSS for printing, as it's not a big priority usually, I can recommend getting the page as a markdown file through something like the Obsidian Web Clipper and using that instead.<p>Obsidian Web Clipper: <a href="https://obsidian.md/clipper" rel="nofollow">https://obsidian.md/clipper</a></p>

<p>I'm wondering if this might not be addressing the actual problem? A game such as Rimworld, with much lower details in graphics / looking less realistic, feels much more like it has a "soul".<p>Can highly recommend Tynan Sylvester's book "Designing Games" which also goes a bit into why Rimworld looks like it does.<p>I'd rather more games move into more abstract directions for portraying game elements, the majority of games should not try to look "realistic".</p>

<p>I've been building something similar which should also be used as a starting point for web development.<p>It includes a setup for simple plain CSS that can scale. It's split into a reset.css, var.css, global.css, util.css and markdown.css.<p>Using that approach for this Astro Starter Template: <a href="https://starter.bryanhogan.com/" rel="nofollow">https://starter.bryanhogan.com/</a><p>I describe the setup in more detail here: <a href="https://webdev.bryanhogan.com/css/css-setup/" rel="nofollow">https://webdev.bryanhogan.com/css/css-setup/</a></p>

<p>I have also been using 5.6 Sol instead of 6. I found 6 to burn through my usage incredibly quick, making it somewhat unusable because I wouldn't be able to get anything done.<p>My results with 5.6 Sol were quite similar to 6, although I haven't tested it that much.</p>

<p>What worked well previously was to have the Claude.md file contain just "@AGENTS.md".<p>But this is a good change.<p>The world of managing skills between providers still feels messy though.</p>

<p>I'm working on a self-tracking app and an Astro Web Starter Template! :)<p>The app is very customizable, local-first and is built to adapt to what you want. Goal is to combine habit tracking, health logging and journaling into one fast and easy to use interfact.<p>Have been working on it for almost years now and it's making great progress.<p>Doing closed user testing right now and will release an open beta soon: <a href="https://dailyselftrack.com/" rel="nofollow">https://dailyselftrack.com/</a><p>My Astro Web Starter is built for building well-designed, performant and accessible websites. It contains everything a high-quality website needs (In my opinion). I built it so I have one good base on which to start my web projects on. Using basic HTML and CSS that can scale, without bloat.<p>There's a lot more on it which you can see here: <a href="https://starter.bryanhogan.com/" rel="nofollow">https://starter.bryanhogan.com/</a></p>

<p>I really liked my modern Bachelor's called Code & Context, it focussed on creating potential founders.<p>It combined coding, design and entrepreneurship. I felt like the idea behind this major was being able to go from idea / problem to finished product sold by a company.<p>The three main fields are very related:<p>- Coding: How to actually code and build the solution.<p>- Design: How to identify problems and design solutions around them. So it's actually multiple different fields of design, e.g. including product design and UX and UI design.<p>- Entrepreneurship: How to actually build and sustain a company around that.<p>There were many opportunities to work on your own projects. Increasingly so actually by intention (2 weeks to 8 weeks in later semesters). It's also close to many entrepreneurship programs for potential funding for ideas, but also networking and guidance.<p>I wrote a blog post about it: <a href="https://bryanhogan.com/blog/what-is-coco" rel="nofollow">https://bryanhogan.com/blog/what-is-coco</a><p>Their website (in German): <a href="https://coco.study/" rel="nofollow">https://coco.study/</a><p>The university's page on it (in German): <a href="https://www.th-koeln.de/studium/code--context-bachelor_62103.php" rel="nofollow">https://www.th-koeln.de/studium/code--context-bachelor_62103...</a></p>
