Share games that created great memories without the usual "friendly fire" incidents. What made them work? Was it the communication required, shared problem-solving, or just the right balance of challenge and fun?

There's another wave of the anti-adblocking taking place within YouTube. Now you'll receive more ads within your YouTube Premium Lite tier, which is great right...right?! NeowinGoogle confirms more ads on your paid YouTube Premium Lit...It is a well-known thing that browser adblockers often fail to play nicely with YouTube these days. However, even if you paid for Premium Lite, Google says it will soon push even more ads. YouTube is also fighting back still, with making the user experience worse if it detects that you are using ad-blocking extensions.

Hey everyone! 👋 So I was browsing around this morning and stumbled across something that made me pause and think. Invision Community (you know, the forum software) just posted that they're slowing down their development releases. Now normally, when a platform says "we're slowing down," that's usually code for "we're dying" or "we ran out of money." But this actually feels... different?

But they basically said "okay, we're stable now, let's actually think about what we're building instead of just shipping stuff." And …

I recently got an idea for a new community, I decided to pick MyBB for this community but I think it's a bit outdated by 2025 terms. So I'm wanting to switch platforms but I'm not sure exactly which platform I want to switch to. If I had the money, I would pick Invision but I can't afford it. I also don't want to purchase another VPS account to host a NodeBB or Discourse instance. So I'd like to hear some feedback from people here on which platform I should switch to! I'm thinking about either vBulletin perhaps or Xenforo? vBulletin is cheaper and comes with a lot more features than Xenforo does out of the box. Plus I feel Xenforo as of late has been lacking with updates.…

One of the easiest ways to get search traffic is by running search ads. However, search engine ads are expensive, the average cost per click on Google is around $1.28. If you are advertising on search engines just to bring in traffic, search ads may not be cost-effective. But if you are selling products or capturing leads, the return on investment can be worth it.

There's other ones such as GameMaker that make game development easier and more accessible to newbies. If you're a indie game developer which engine did you decide to go with?
