People are downvoting you, because while the Holocaust wasn’t the first nor last genocide, it still is unique. Your initial statement makes two claims, but you only refer to the one less controversial one in your “curious edit”.

Especially for game developers game-jams are a great way to prevent scope creep and actually push towards a deliverable at the end of the timeframe.

And by signing up in advance you have something to hold yourself accountable with.

That being said, as a game dev, or developer in general, you need to be pretty frustration resistant. Even as a senior dev you still have these situations. Most often it’s the dev that’s wrong, not the computer (or third party library/framework/engine).

I’d also advise against using chatgpt and instead go for some basic coding Tutorials first.

I’m actually not that into actual self-hosting (it feels too close to my day job). But i love the idea of it, and actually do host my own RSS Reader: It’s selfoss (PHP + SQLite, so, very simple) and i have been using ever since google reader shut down. It runs on my uberspace.de instance.
