Do not, under any circumstances, attach your sense of self-worth to your games.

Never make game development your identity. Let it be a thing you do, not a thing you are.

Build a community outside of game development as soon as possible, even if you’re an introvert. You won’t understand why this is so important until the day you need it and don’t have it.

I’m also finding it really effective. I only hate that backing out from a post is a crapshoot on whether it preserves my scroll position, resets to the top, or reloads the entire feed.
