You constantly promote other libraries in semi-related topics on Reddit as well.
I find this quite weird, what's the point?
At the very least post a comparison of why X is better/more interesting than Y.
- adamnemecek 6y agoIs it weird? Alternatives are mentioned in HN threads all the time. I mean you can make the comparison yourself.
- serverholic 6y agoIt's one thing to mention alternatives but "join the discord" is straight up promotion.
- adamnemecek 6y agoThat’s a weird line to draw.
- serverholic 6y agoAlright, well if you ever release ngrid I'm sure you won't mind if I post about alternatives right? Maybe include some links to some competitors, and an invitation to their discords. Also I'll be sure to not mention your project at all in my post. Hope that's ok.
- adamnemecek 6y agoI’ll release it soon. I can tell you can’t wait for it. Also the scenario you describe is a different thing since one is commercial and one is open source. But I wouldn’t be particularly upset about you mentioning your product. Also I’m not going to mention alternatives but I wouldn’t be butthurt if they post it themselves. Is that a hard concept?
- alice-i-cecile 6y agoAs a Bevy contributor, I can say that rg3d is much more mature and feature-complete than we are right now. They're substantially ahead on animations, UI, sound and rendering. That said, the engine isn't ECS-based (they use a scene graph instead), the community is much smaller, and the engine as a whole seem to be much more narrowly focused on a specific type of 3D game, exemplified by the shooter example.
