title: "I just killed my Discord server, and I feel amazing"
3+
date: 2025-12-09
4+

For the past year or so, I've had a small Discord server tied to my Twitch channel. 61 members. Almost zero messages per week. A constant **low-level guilt** in the back of my head: "I should post something, organise something, add bots, make roles…"
7+
8+
Today I archived it forever. And I've never felt lighter.

Here's the raw truth:
13+
14+
- I don't have the energy to moderate or animate a community right now.
15+
16+
- I don't have a released game yet, so there isn't actually anything real to talk about every day.
17+
18+
- Keeping that server open was just another **side-quest** that made me feel unproductive instead of helping me finish what actually matters: a game.
19+
20+
So I'm done pretending I'm a "community guy" before being a "guy who **ships games**".

From now on, this devlog is my new home.
27+
28+
What to expect here:
29+
30+
- Weekly (or when I actually have something) honest updates about the game I'm building
31+
32+
- All the bugs, dead ends, refactors, small wins, and moments I almost rage-quit
33+
34+
- Zero pressure to entertain anyone — this is first and foremost for me
35+
36+
- If you enjoy reading real progress from someone who's been stuck in "start-but-never-finish" hell for years, you're welcome to follow along.
37+
38+
> I only go live when I have something real and working to show. No more "let's start yet another prototype together".

Live streams are not gone, but the rule is now brutal and simple: I only go live when I have something **real and working** to show. No more "let's start yet another prototype together".
43+
44+
> This devlog is my public **commitment device**. No Discord notifications, no bots, no roles, no fake engagement metrics. Just me, the code, and the will to finally finish something.

Thanks to everyone who has ever joined the server. If you want to keep watching the journey (the real one, with all the mess), bookmark this place.
49+
50+
The next post will already have code, screenshots, and probably a bug that made me lose 2 hours today.
51+
52+
See you on the other side!

I haven't been working on the game as much as I would like, but I **am making progress**. I'm giving my mind the **time it needs to clear**. I've been **sleeping more**, **eating less**, and **cutting back on coffee**.
13+
14+
At work, I am **more focused** and have started taking **notes on paper again**.
15+

Next week, I'll share some progress on the game.

> Overall, I'm happy.
