Hey comrades, I hope this doesn't break the rules but I needed someplace to rant to sane people. I know how well threads like this go over on R*ddit. Due to some hefty psychological abuse during my childhood, I suffer from bad social anxiety. Until very recently I couldn't even talk to strangers via phone, Discord, or Email.

It took me so long to realize that I needed help and even longer to gather the strength to seek it that I am 25 now and only started getting better slowly. I just feel like it took me too long and now recovering is meaningless. I never went to any parties or clubs because I couldn't and I also didn't have romantic connections.

The thought of asking someone out terrifies me. I am completely clueless in dating matters and overcoming this seems like an impossible roadblock. It feels like I am already too old to have no clue about relationships and I will be definitely too old once I get over my fear of approaching someone. I don't want to be alone forever. I don't want to become some weird incel creep but I also feel like I already crossed the point of no return. And yet I feel silly for worrying about this. I know a lot of you have far greater problems in life. Me complaining about having social anxiety and being single just shows how good my life is if this is truly my biggest problem but I still can't shake it.

Sorry that this rant is so uncoherent and leading to nothing I just had to get this out in an environment that is actually supporting and understanding.

Edit: thanks everyone for the kind words. I was shedding some tears while going through your replies. I was that deeply touched. I count myself once again lucky to belong to such a kind and caring community (can't believe libs call US red red fascists) and I now feel much better about myself. I feared I was alone in my fight, and even though I haven't met a single one of you in real life, I now know I am not. I will get around to answering everyone of you but it might take me a day or two.

FUCK! I HATE THIS COUNTRY!

I see ADHD meds constantly being prescribed to people that fit ADHD symptoms; but neurotransmitter levels usually aren't checked prior, which could cause some issues in development. Capitalism is a parasite that values profit over people, so it is unsurprising to find that some people fit ADHD symptoms because the brutality of capitalism exhausted them.

Artificially inserting neurotransmitters into children can affect their development; health issues could appear as a result.

Like previously mentioned, this new framework allows app development to introduce new features much more easily and unlocks a lot of potential for the app.

In the next release of mastercomfig 9, barring any more patches, you can expect to see support for class configs, crosshair customization, weapon customization and more advanced keybind setups.

These features are already near completion and are in the polish stage for bug fixing and visual enhancement. I can't wait to see what the community thinks about this, and hope the app becoming a one-stop shop for all TF2 customization provides value to all of you. I'm always open to feedback and new ideas, just let me know what you're thinking of!

mastercomfig should have stayed a performance config; a TF2 customization framework is outside the scope of mastercomfig's goals.

Reddit thread.

The project maintainer is egotistical. I guess that's another behavior to not do as a software developer.

I'm in agreement; and the article is still relevant years later.

I know this is the autism community but as someone with ASD and ADHD, I thought people here might appreciate this video. There tends to be an overlap between the two.

It's a nice inventory system. I do wish I could get the information of an item by hovering over it though.

There's a mirror on GitLab. (I really need to get off these proprietary platforms...)

If it affects your gameplay; how do you deal with it?
