"Eventually, everything becomes a crab"

Carcinization is an example of a phenomenon called convergent evolution, which is when different groups independently evolve the same traits. It's the same reason both bats and birds have wings. But intriguingly, the crab-like body plan has emerged many times among very closely related animals.

It seems to apply to social networks as well 😀

but it seems like the developers tried to make it as different as possible just for the sake of being different.

They might actually be trying to avoid getting sued by Adobe.

"You’re in a desert walking along in the sand when all of the sudden you look down, and you see a tortoise, it’s crawling toward you. You reach down, you flip the tortoise over on its back. The tortoise lays on its back, its belly baking in the hot sun, beating its legs trying to turn itself over, but it can’t, not without your help. But you’re not helping. Why is that?"

I think this time the problem isn't going to go away...they got a pass after Centos but they're showing a pattern of behavior now.

GDScript is based on Python so I would learn basic programming with Python first before I tackled game engine programming.

Here's a couple of basic courses at Udemy:

When you have basic programming knowledge, this course starts you from scratch to build a game with Godot using GDScript:

I'm doing the Godot course, it's pretty good...makes no assumptions about your game development knowledge at all. No, I don't work for Udemy :) Buy the courses when they go on sale, they always go on sale :)

...stop to think and realize that Reddit was all along, just out to get my content and data so they can make money off it.

'Monetize it' is the word they use.
