@RegularRaptor I (not much of a social media person) originally made this account to promote our game(s). Now I post about cats, gardening, books and such (and once in a blue moon try to make people aware of the game). FWIW, I follow an account that exclusively promotes their games, nothing extra, nothing personal, and I don't really care for it that much. I'd love to see more of them besides the gamedev aspect 🤷♀️

@RegularRaptor There is one and only one account out of the thousands I read that I wish would split into two and your example doesn't come anywhere near that. I hope you continue to post everything from one account.

@RegularRaptor I think Baldur Bjarnason asked a while back whether he should put his photography and his AI criticism in separate profiles, and I think the answer was to keep them in one. Generally it seems like here people follow people and not topics. I know on YouTube it's the other way round, put too many different videos on the same profile and the algorithm punishes you. Luckily here there is no algorithm to do that. I do fairly often see alternative accounts spun up for public/private or sfw/nsfw. Or accounts for different instances (for the different communities I guess?). So I think for your use-case keeping the gamedev stuff in the same account might help? You can perhaps use hashtags for filtering to make it easier to find the educational stuff among the shitposts. Or I've seen users make long threads for this reason (e.g. Jonny's Claude Code roast)

@RegularRaptor I prefer to follow a single account that is an actual person and has as many interests an topics as person would. And that how I try to approach my own posts. You follow me once and you get a (hopefully good to read) chaos of everything. HOWEVER, having said that, I always try to encourage people to just post in whatever way makes them personally happier-est. Fuck the "rules".
