This mastodon instance (mastodon.gamedev.place) has 136 custom &#34;emojis&#34; representing various engines &amp; tools often used in gamedev. I made all of them 2+ years ago. Which notable ones have popped up since then that we are missing out on?

Not a terribly bad result!

You still need someone to run the servers (costs $$$) and do moderation (costs human work and sometimes human misery).<br/><br/>Like, this instance running at all is a combination of Someone paying a $700 bill each.and.every.month, and about 5 moderators looking at reports and user registrations each.and.every.day. *So far* this has been working. Will it keep on working? Who knows! Forever? Probably not :/ 2024-09-10T04:00:47Z https://yabu.me/nevent1qqswvex5fhenrkywg4f529w9xjnqeqxfyr8ltc9vg2jwyjfg09uelmgzyze0q7c7fyx26n6g3krfe6cmyqnkf94a72jacgxf3pm822m0nuzhqs6gk8g Cohost shutting down (<a href="https://cohost.org/staff/post/7611443-cohost-to-shut-down">https://cohost.org/staff/post/7611443-cohost-to-shut-down</a>) is sad but not surprising.
