Late #introduction

Hello, I'm Melon. This is just gonna be an About Me I can have pinned. :]

Most of my free time is spent playing games or doing other tech related stuff, like coding. At the moment I tend to be hopping between #rivalsofaether2, #webfishing, and #splatoon3, and on Steam my top three most played are #towerunite, #teamfortress2, and #counterstrike2, though most of those hours are from years ago.

I've used Fedi for a few years, but switched off the old instance I was on... (1/3)

News / Pretendo Network: Nintendo has issued a warning not to use revival servers

Nintendo has issued a warning today for people not to use the Pretendo Network as it may pose unexpected security risks.

This isn't really a big deal, but I'm sharing it over here to point out a few things since people seem to be a bit concerned whether this post will affect @pretendo or not.

Suppose I should also disclose that I'm a Pretendo staff member again in the interest of transparency.

Time to write a new introduction!

Hey I’m Nika (they/them) and I am an engineer from Germany! My job is CAD design.
My hobbies include gaming, crochet and knitting, cooking and baking. I am quite tech savvy and I love boosting cats and pixel art. I also have a 3D-printer and design stuff in my freetime.

I bake my own sourdough bread since 2015.
I want to write my own cookbook and already put together a template in LaTeX.
Currently I’m playing Fallout 4 and the newest update of Stardew Valley. Additionally I play Splatoon 3 and Pokemon games.
I try to organize my life in a bullet journal.

My post are mostly written in English.

Nice to meet you all.

Sup, I would like instance suggestions for a friend and maybe even me one day.

- tell me what you like about the instance
- do they like music
- do they post about other things than dev, cybersec, pets
- does it seem stern or laidback, as in : is there a """good""" social issues / shitpost balance (I personally would dislike an instance that IGNORES social issues, and only does shitpost)
- is it antifascist

🔁

Community / Polls: What are you voting for in next weekend's Splatfest?

Considering we're about a week and a half away from next weekend's #Splatfest, which team are you voting for?

I think I've already decided on Ninja, but I'd be interested to see what everyone else thinks. As a reminder, the question is: "What would you be in a fantasy world?"

News / Splatfest: Splatoween is back!

Nintendo isn't out of unique themes yet, since they've just announced a new #Splatfest theme for #Splatoween!

It'll take place from the 26th of October at 1am BST and will end on the 28th at 12am GMT (reminder that Daylight Savings is happening on the 27th).

The theme for this one is: What would you be in a fantasy world?

Wizard, Knight or Ninja are the options for this Splatfest. I think I already know what I'm going to be!

News / Emulators: The Switch emulator Ryujinx is no longer available

If you've emulated Nintendo Switch software through an emulator, such as the Splatoon series, you'll be disappointed to learn that #Ryujinx is no longer available.

The repositories were taken down earlier today and a staff member has issued this statement on their Discord server.

Yesterday, gdkchan was contacted by Nintendo and offered an agreement to stop working on the project, remove the organization and all related assets he's in control of. While awaiting confirmation on whether he would take this agreement, the organization has been removed, so I think it's safe to say what the outcome is. Rather than leave you with only panic and speculation, I decided to write this short message to give some closure.

These words are my own. I don't want to speak for anyone else here, so just remember that while reading.

Thank you to everyone who has contributed code, documentation or issue reports to the project. Thank you all for following us throughout the development. I was able to learn a lot of really neat things about games that I love, enjoy them with renewed qualities and in unique circumstances, and I'm sure you all have experiences that are similarly special. I'm extending my own massive thanks to our moderation team, who have been here through some rough circumstances and always found ways to make light of it.

Interesting how Nintendo is resorting to make agreements in private to get things that they don't like gone. At least this isn't as disastrous as the Citra/Yuzu situation was. Is there any public Switch emulators now?

Community / Polls: Are you using Pretendo if you have Splatoon 1?

I want to host more events in the future, but I want to try and ask a few questions to the community so we can figure out what works best. It would be really fun to host more Splatoon 1 events, but I don't actually know how many people have @pretendo installed from the community.

If you DON'T have Splatoon 1, please don't answer the poll. If anyone needs a guide to install Pretendo on their Wii U, let me know and I can reply with useful links.

Community / Announcements: Thank You

Now that the #GrandFestival #Splatfest is over and Splatoon 3 having less happening from now on, I would just like to reassure everyone here that we will continue actively posting about the game. Things may be less frequent, but I am determined to continue reporting on the Splatoon series here (and the Animal Crossing series at @crossing).

I'm hoping we'll be able to host more events soon to keep things fresh. But for now, I would like to issue a thank you to everyone reading this post for supporting this account for about a year and 9 months.

It's been truly inkredible being able to grow this community and I want to continue having a vibrant community even with the future of Splatoon 3 being uncertain. I would also like to use this space to say thank you to a few individuals.

For starters, thank you @esm and @ipg for being amazing admins on this server! Also, thanks @soap for maintaining a safe space for squids to hang out in!

Even though I don't really know either of you, thank you @oatmealdome for continuing to datamine content in Splatoon 3 as well as reporting on news (it's quite handy) and thanks @kydzs for operating the SplatoonNA mirror here.

I'd also like to thank the team at @pretendo: particularly @jon, @quarky and @limes. They've been doing a splatastic job of reviving servers for Splatoon 1 and various other Wii U/3DS titles. I'm looking forward to potentially working with the team in the future for early access to Splatfest information etc once the servers are ready. I also currently moderate for Pretendo's forums, so be sure to say hi if you see me around.

Finally, thank you to @NorthWestWind in particular for assisting with the operation of our Matrix and Discord spaces.

Oh, and also, I know nobody at Nintendo will see this but thank you. I don't know what I'd be doing online now if this game didn't exist.

I'll be publishing a more lengthy post on other platforms soon.
