A bit of an effortpost :)
Please do crosspost in more fitting communities if you think of any
Well Discord, Slack, & others are web tech too so it’s not like avoiding it is easy. If I *have* to use these services, I would prefer it be in the browser’s sandbox.
Even still, almost all debug, troubleshoot, pairing session I have done in the last 4 years have been done over Upterm or Tmate, which is much, much lighter on bandwidth & not crushed by video compression.
yeah, and discord slack and basically everything based on electron is a fresh hell.
I love having three separate instances of chrome running the background while just using my computer, such that they all consume an entire gigabyte of ram for no particular reason.
TBF i wouldn't do much if any troubleshooting over RDP or anything similar, i use SSH for all that stuff lol. I'm just confused that nobody has put together a "relatively" functional version of this yet, it seems like it would be prime realestate.
That is why upterm & tmate exist… ephemeral shared SSH sessions. Biggest missing feature would be some sort of scoping since someone could raw dog your system—catting SSH keys, deleting config, force pushing a repo if unlocked keys are in memory.
if i wanted to share my terminal it's pretty trivial to do that. Unfortunately i use my computer outside of the terminal environment semi regularly, for most applications really.
The folks I collaborate have a policy now that if it doesn’t have a TUI or CLI version, it doesn’t exist 😂
based, i like those people. Unfortunately i can't exactly share a minecraft window over terminal, so...
Oh you could if so inclined run a Notcurses renderer for Minetest. https://l-m.dev/cs/hijacking-opengl-with-notcurses/
They already have a render for NEStopia + RetroArch lol
that would be rather funny, although i play technical minecraft primarily, so minetest isn't exactly a substitute here lol.
The VoxeLibre mod is a substitute
kind of, like i said i play technical minecraft so the kind of stuff i'm accustomed to are the fact that repeaters schedule power events on a priority system changing based on what it's powering or not.
I will probably end up playing mineclone2/voxelibre at some point though, it's just not really a substitute here unfortunately.
