If you do want to see Dani-like gamedev challenges go vote the challenge in this video's comments. There is no view limit to the challenge and I pick the best one from the comments! If the video gets popular I'll just have more motivation to make it but I'll do it anyway. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bZy1aUEGb1U&t=22s

Who-like? Am I just out of the loop and "Dani" is some big name most gamers know, or is the description making a bad assumption that we all know who "Dani" is?

Go check out dani on YouTube. He is the most awesome gamedev I have ever seen! He is doing gamedev challenges such as how he made Crab game/squid game

I feel like you just ignored my question to go full-in on promoting whoever this person is, which makes me feel extra resistance to checking it out, on top of my already-existing aversion to watching videos.

Sorry I thought I replied to you!(technical issues, still figuring this website out) but Dani is popular Youtuber who is making gamedev challenges, dani left YouTube roughly 3 years ago. Dani has made for example Muck, Karlson and Crab game(squid game ripoff game). And I can't promote him. He gets more views than this whole website

What do you mean you can't promote him? You're very positive about him to the point it seems you really want me and other Lemmy users to go pay attention to his stuff, and are willing to make posts to do so. That counts as promotion.

Thanks for answering my question about whether he is supposed to be mainstream enough that I am supposed to know who he is without explanation. Unfortunately, there are probably plenty of YouTubers who have higher subscriber counts than the count of total active Lemmy users, most of who are totally irrelevant to me and who are still not someone everyone who does not live under a rock would be aware of. I'll assume he counts as one of them. I am glad you enjoy his content enough to advertise for him on Lemmy, but it's coming off less as a person sharing their enthusiasm and more as an advertisement I really do not want to see. I think that is the vibe everyone else is picking up as well, and why you are getting a lot of downvotes on this post.
