But most of why I like Vyxal has less to do with the language itself, which I'm mostly neutral on, and more to do with it making golfing languages more accessible to new users
@lyxal Hmm, I should probably admit that I (did) have some unfair bias against Vyxal. Some of it has to do with jealously that Vyxal was getting a lot of attention around the time that I made Ash, which is stupid given that at the timee Vyxal was a complete, working language (with answers), while Ash was a half baked prototype that had never been seen anywhere near main (and also you'd supported me thoughout the whole project, something I definitely don't think you enough for :p).
But I've noticed and tried my best to get rid of that bias for a while
It probably did still influence some stuff a lot though, like my opposition to the Vyxal community ad
But I do try and will try the best I can to correct for that bias, and I'm still going to consider my bias against flags in my opinions of Vyxal because I don't believe that to be an unfair or illogical bias :p

Either you do the 05AB1E way of <blah>...} to apply some code under some condition (reduce, map, filter, etc.), or you push a function object and use that as an argument to the next command
Either way, they leave you inflexible
Either you hope for a challenge where the entire thing is <blah...} and you can omit the trailing }, or you end up using 2 (or more) extra bytes on pushing and manipulating the function
basically, the first post got closed and deleted, the second post was made, was marked as spam, so i went back, undeleted the first post, and spam nuked it
ok cuz i just opened it and couldn't find something exactly saying that (though it's only reasonable that there are things i probably am not allowed to lie about)
@lyxal This is the sort of thing that would make someone open the TNB, glance at the most recent messages, and either immediately leave or stick around forever

I was fiddling around with the Evolution of Trust and thought of this
Challenge
Given all-lowercase "hat person" name and number of rounds, output a list of Cooperate and Cheat that will give you the maximum possible amounts of points.

i probably have a profile somewhere still saying i'm 16 lol
speaking of which i should go remove all of my personal info from the internet not cuz i think it'll give me more anonymity just cuz i can't be bothered to keep it up to date lmao
i also just want to point out that with the current names you can distinguish them purely by length because unless i'm missing something the strategies into copycat and grudger are identical
A standard way to prove something is TC is to write an interpreter for a different minimalist TC language in it, or (often easier) find a way to translate from such a lang into it
@emanresuA Ticker action is actually interesting. It provides an infinite loop, and with "piecewise function" combined, it's very easy to simulate FRACTRAN which is TC (I tested and it even halts when no branches execute)
