GitHub nukes forks when the original repository is deleted.
The correct way to handle your use case is by creating pull mirrors, ideally on a different host.
I think that instead of trying to grow this community, we would be better off by rewriting the existent large communities' members in Rust for a safer approach.
Somehow I found ways to remove and break the GUI multiple times in multiple ways in multiple distros.
Different scenarios, different times, different issues trying to "fix". My usual fix after this was always to copy what I think I still had important and then move on with a reinstall.
Recently I have been playing with ZorinOS and broke it in the same way by fidgeting with pipewire. Distro hoped to Fedora Silverblue due to the immutable filesystem. I wonder if I will break this one in a way I cannot revert it easily with rpm-ostree. I almost feel challenged.
I recently distro-hoped to Fedora Silverblue and I am quite pleased with it. This version has in immutable filesystem, thus you might want to look for another version of Fedora.
NixOS is big no go for me too, especially given that you can install the Nix package manager on any distro easily.
Arch Wiki is great and I often use it for non Arch distros well.
Was he interested in developing games in Roblox or just playing them? If he was interested in development, consider showing to him Godot. Do a simple tutorial together, maybe a multiplayer that he can send and show off to his friends.
The UI/UX is a bit bad as the user flow is mangled.
i would advice adding one of the new strong captchas and upon failure, redirect the human towards the human page and the bot towards the bot page.
"If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck."
If it looks like a duck, swims like a dog and barks like a dog but I am still telling you it is a plain old duck, there is a miscommunication between me as a game developer and you as the player.
What do you think of the way Subnautica did it during development with the feedback button?
I think most devs do not bother with this despite being quite trivial to implement. This inspires me to create an Unreal Engine plugin that allows the devs to easily implement it and for the player to easily use it.
