the missing notification system for pouet
category: general [glöplog]
A while ago I made this for fun:
https://pouet.zfx.fr
It’s basically the missing notification system for pouet :)
I am not sure whether it's going to affect the demoscene but who knows maybe you'll find it useful.
What does it do?
well it sends notifications by email:
when a reply is posted in a thread you're watching
when there’s a new line on the oneliner (disabled by default for your own sanity)
when someone mentions you on the oneliner (for example if someone writes hello @shantee, I get an email)
To use it, just go to https://pouet.zfx.fr and enter something (for example you handle).
It will create your own dashboard where you can manage your settings.
This is obviously not private at all !!!
So if you use your actual scene handle, anyone can also use it to access your dashboard, change your settings, and see/modify your email address.
For example, if you enter shantee, you'll see mine. I personally don’t care that much, but some of you might.
But yeah obviously you do not have to use your handle you can use whatever you want, as long as you remember it.

people here are too old for that shit, when they're not busy trolling, pissing themselves while drinking questionable beers, they'll press F5 massively just to see if someone replied to them
However, for the young people who still are OK being part of the circus I guess it could be useful.

I feel seen.
Do like, simple & efficient.
message for shantee: try discord
assuming anyone even cares enough, the complete lack of security is going to be abused so fast it's almost not funny :D
It would be great if prod pages could be added the same way as bbs threads!

to spell it out in full, it's excellent for stalking whenever a certain topic is mentioned (a keyword doesn't have to be a username...) and insert themselves into the conversation to post whatever garbage they desire. congrats, you just gave trolls more ammo!

the notification that a certain thread is updated is made regardless of a post content if I'm correct?
Thank you all for your replies and feedback!
lol ...yep
meh...Not a huge fan.
Perfect! You got it that was the idea!
Oww come on ! Why the scary words ? "Lack of security", "stalking", "trolls", and now "ammo" ! !
The world is not so dark ! Life is beautiful! Nobody wants to hurt anyone here ! we're all firends !
Why are you two so pessimistic?
But yep... You’re absolutely right. And even more so !... because this, indeed, is very important to mention:
this thing that I made is definitely NOT built with "safety / privacy / security" in mind! lol... Oh boy! Not at all. Au contraire ! (On the contrary !)
It’s built for lazy people like me who don’t want to go through some complex ID verification, KYC process, biometric retina scan, blood sample, three-factor stuff just to use some dumb website on the interwebs.
And for peaople who like to live dangerously!
But at least you’ll have some cool story to tell the kids when you'll be older:
“You know what ? When I was your age, I once signed up to this guy’s website...
What was his name again? Santea? Chantchi ? No wait... Owww my brain is not braning like 20 years ago ! Oh wait I remember it now ! It was more like ‘shantee’! Yes, that's it shantee, I remember it now !
Ah ! Good old shantee !
Well, where was I ? Yes ! Once ! I signed up to his website using my actual Pouet handle! Yes sir my pouet name! And I survived! I am alive while you're moaning about your stupid cancer like a bitch !”
Come on! Have a little faith, goddammit! And trust your fellow demosceners! d-d-d-d demoscene
lol looks like I overshot the Ballmer Peak a bit ^^
So yeah you get the idea: don’t use your real handle if you don’t want to. Use "mysecretpouetthing" or whatever you’ll remember tomorrow.
That is indeed an excellent idea !
that is correct! notification with @handle (or yeah "@keyword") only work for the oneliner
