Yeah, this is what it has been in our experience as well. They seem to fail pretty predictably after a lot of heavy usage, but many laptops don't reach that.

As the internet gets bigger, it's been feeling increasingly "small" to me. The time I spend is concentrated on a few sites, which haven't changed much in years. I used to find random forums and communities on a regular b

This was a great read. I think the other unsaid takeaway here - touched on briefly when mentioning Twitter's glacial rate of product development - is that invisible asymptotes become insurmountable if your company has lost the ability

Thanks! No SSR here, just an SPA (static html/js/css) served up via CDN. We do use code splitting to load bundles progressively to keep the bundle size down.

I do think there will be a lot of interesting cases where we can crowdsource information (particularly around information like popular team comps, hero names, list-type things like that), and will be exploring those more for sure. The tough

Working on fixing this now, thank you.

I've played on a MtG team before, good times. It's only for video games now, but I think Magic is something we can/should definitely add.

Thanks :)

Thanks for the feedback. We're still exploring all of these thoughts as we iterate and learn, so I don't have absolute answers here. Some thoughts, though: > Yet another gaming community; it's very interesting how these co

This is the kind of feedback we only get on HN :) thanks a lot, will fix this.

Will try to repro there now, thanks a lot.

by iEchoic 9y ago
Grrrr, I've had 1-2 other people mention this so far, but we can't seem to repro it. Mind posting or emailing me (in profile) the device/browser you're on or anything else that might help us track it down? That'd be

by iEchoic 9y ago
Yeah, exactly. An example of something the bot does that teams really like is that if you're an Overwatch team (for instance) it will post a daily SR news update, showing the SR leaderboard and who gained the most SR in the last 24 hou

Official game communities are an interesting category that we haven't explored or reached out to much yet. That's a great idea though, and I think it makes a lot of sense to think about doing that more. Our bot is in ~26k servers

by iEchoic 9y ago
Agreed - we've actually just started on these recently. Forum posts and events now have the rich embeds; we're planning on bringing them to the rest of the content soon.

by iEchoic 9y ago
Thank you! Our users (and our team, for that matter) love Discord as well. About the bot DMing, that could explain some of the errors we've been seeing - thanks for the tip. Taking a look now.

I appreciate it, thank you :)

Yes! This launch was focused on the foundational team tools, but making it easier for players to find teams is already in the works. I think we can have an experience where all the teams you see are active high-quality teams, are tailored

by iEchoic 9y ago
Yeah, we manually choose games to support right now. It was a goal from the beginning to make it feel like you're immersed into your game's environment as soon as you create a team, which requires us to have metadata and assets fo

We've been getting quite a few requests for board game groups lately. I hadn't considered that initially, but I think that's a pretty natural extension that I could see us adding soon. Thanks :)

by iEchoic 9y ago
Yeah, agreed. I'd like to have more customization options in the future, including themes like that. To keep the scope small enough to make this launchable, it didn't make the cut, but we'll definitely be revisiting that.

Interesting, I haven't looked into iRacing yet. I'll definitely check this out, thank you for the suggestion.
