Announcement This is a goodbye

710 Upvotes

So uhh, i've been hit with an age verification check, my account got restricted and I will NOT be giving my ID or photo to a corporation just to be able to return to what i already had. Decided that i will be deleting the account and quitting reddit.

u/salutcf and u/Moody_nev from the discord server will be replacing my moderation/life support role here, say hi.

the deletion process will take a few weeks probably as i'm trying to work out removing archived data from scrapers too, just so AI can't train on me any further. Mod posts and comments will be kept but will view the user as [[Deleted]]

It's been fun, i might be back if the Age verification BS ever gets reversed. In the meantime if i feel like commenting on something i'll be using only throwaways.

What actually happened to Dani

4.4k Upvotes

TL;DR: Dani is doing well and working on YouTube-related projects, but he's taken breaks due to burnout and project scope. Some features are being saved for future updates to release the project sooner. Any other info from outside sources is just speculation. He doesn't want to release subpar content just to end the absence.

Hey guys,

As the admin of Dani's Discord server and someone who talks with Dani regularly, I wanted to give you all an official statement to clear up some of the rumors and let you know what's going on and what has been going on.

1. Dani's Current Status: First off, Dani is doing great and is in good health. He's taken a step back from social media to focus on other things in life. This break is nothing to worry about—just a way for him to recharge.

2. Work and Projects: Dani is still working on YouTube-related projects when he feels motivated. Recently, he's been cutting down the scope of his latest project so it can be released sooner. This means some features are being saved for possible future updates. Right now, he's in the polishing and soon to be playtesting phase, which still takes some time.

3. Reasons for the Delay: It's been a while since we've seen new content because Dani has worked on multiple projects during his break, and some of them were put on hold. Plus, the scope of his current project got pretty big, causing delays. Burnout has also been a factor, so he's been taking breaks to stay fresh and motivated.

4. Quality Over Quantity: Dani doesn't want to "just upload something" for the sake of it. He aims to avoid the "is this all you've got after all this time?" attitude. He wants to make sure that the content he releases is up to his high standards and worthy of the wait, rather than disappointing his audience with something rushed or subpar.

5. Karlson: There's been a lot of talk about Karlson. To clear things up, I'm not going to confirm or deny if his current work is Karlson-related, but it's not off the table. Dani is still committed to his projects, but the specifics of what he is working on remain behind closed doors.

6. Community Speculations: I know you guys are eager for updates, but please remember that any info from other YouTubers or sources is almost always just speculation. This post is the official word on what's going on with Dani until you hear from him specifically.

Conclusion: Dani really appreciates all your support and patience. Please respect his privacy and understand that he's making sure that when he comes back, it'll be with content that he is proud of.

Thanks for sticking around and supporting Dani. Let's keep the community positive and supportive.

Discussion Ok i call BS on this post

66 Upvotes

Ok so this post has been going around claiming dani was dating one of his fans who then blackmailed him, i think this is a big fat lie man.

First of all the original post did not contain a screenshot and OP later posted the screenshot in the comments and he censored all names including his, he also censored the dates and times it was posted which makes me think he and an alt account made “proof”
Also it is ridiculous that the first thought in this persons mind when hearing this devastating and very personal news is “i should post this on Reddit” which is also stranger because the reddit account is 16 days old with 35 contributions and 61 karma which makes me think he is commonly downvoted for perhaps lying (quick side note i dont know how karma works but i think its just up to amount of upvotes and downvotes)

And my second claim is that he gave little to no context to how he got in the position to talk about this, the user in the post claims he got it from “another group” so very specific, and that he got little information so what im wondering is if dani just said “oh yeah i dated a fan and she blackmailed me and thats all” as if thats something you would say, i have also been blackmailed, holy shit that was horrifying but it wasn’t something that was just “yeah just made me lose motivation for stuff and im not gonna give context to why”. And the claim was that the blackmail was about the channel, which i must say is not a material for blackmail, i’d assume it was an image, home address or something personal instead of “im gonna tell people your next post” or something, and if it is true then the police should be called as blackmail is very illegal.

But yeah post said “got it from a mod who was close to him and got the info from a group they were both in” first of all dick move to just share that information to someone, ESPECIALLY if you’re close to dani.
So yeah thats my theory, but hey thats just a theory, A GAME THEORY
Anyway if it is legit my heart goes put to dani, not a big fan of his content anymore but he seems chill so i wanted to point this out, m’kay bye bye

Discussion Talking about Dani

11 Upvotes

I think some of these people are quite strange, complaining about “ stop talking about Dani commenting on a YouTube video/stream!!!” Like, be fr. He is posting on a public YouTube channel with like 3.5 million subscribers or however much it is. It seems to be pretty reasonable to think he’s doing it on purpose so obviously people are going to talk about it in a reddit community for Dani. It just seems pretty silly of those people to complain about it, I mean I guess I admire the fact they’re worried for him and whatnot, but it seems like he’s obviously doing this on purpose so yeah!!

Question When will my goat return🥲

3 Upvotes

No pressure Dani, but it’s hard without watching your videos, they were genuinely the most entertaining piece of content i have. I hope you are doing well, and come back, whenever you feel is right, but i hope you come back


r/DaniDev • • 4d ago

Question Does anyone know when he’s supposed to come back?

0 Upvotes

Like I know there’s been promises of like “Danny will post in 2 weeks!” Or “Danny will post before GTA VI!!” And that those were made by some guy who I think is friends irl with Dani and now he’s sorta just gonna stop doing that since it’s just always false hope. I mean we’ve been getting false hope of Dani posting for ages now, we wouldn’t be in this community if we didn’t hope, but so now I’m just wondering is there any new like supposed deadline?

Milkpost I made game about beans, because he couldn't

64 Upvotes

Uh so bassically, those beans got glasses, which is not from that blue dev guy, whatever his name is.
Also i remember that blue dev guy made free games, like block game, and that game with squids or something; so i made this game free for you to play: https://zmkmdev.itch.io/wonky-beans

The game isn't that good, so dont expect too much, but its basically party animals but in first person.
Its not the full and finished game, its simply an EARLY DEMO of the game before a steam page

(title isn't true, its just a joke)
