Big update: notifications, smarter events, and Discord

Since the last update HaMashak grew into a home for Jewish game developers worldwide, and moved to its new domain, gamedev.co.il. Here is the gist of what's new. 🔔 Notifications You will now know the moment something happens on your account, without chasing it: Comments and reactions on your content Updates on feature requests you posted Replies to team-join and ownership-claim requests Invites to join a studio or company They show up in the bell on the site, and you can also get them as a private message on Discord (your choice). To keep things from getting noisy, comments and reactions are collected into one daily summary, and messages respect quiet hours and Shabbat in your own local time. 📅 Events Connect a calendar once (Google Calendar, Meetup or ICS) and events flow in automatically Add an event by pasting a link RSVP with your profile Free ticketing for events A calendar you can subscribe to that stays up to date, with filters by city and type 🤖 Discord bot Guided onboarding: name, studio, role, discipline, language and location Two-way sync between your site profile and Discord Subscribe to the events calendar with /subscribe Activly working on the bot so you can use it on your own discord server! 🗺️ Cities and map City pages for every community hub An interactive map of members, studios and events Free-text location on your profile, any city in the world 🎮 Games Richer game pages: media, playable demo and store links Import a game from a Steam or itch link Automatic detection when a game releases 🌐 Automatic translation Site content is translated to the language you are browsing in Accurate language detection, even for text that mixes Hebrew and English
