@bot @djsumdog @pretendo still not against any US laws, which is where Pretendo is based
Backend developer and software researcher for hire. My work consists mostly of research/reverse engineering of software and building tools and APIs for them, as well as other general backend server development.
I work with web scraping, reverse engineering APIs, building replacement Nintendo game servers, and everything in between.
Lead developer of https://pretendo.network
@slips @nano @pretendo it’s easy for you to call it “bootlicking” when you carry none of the risk. You aren’t the one who will have their years of work thrown down the drain by Nintendo if they ever decide to drop the legal hammer. There are other places to get what you want, it doesn’t mean we’re willing to take that risk and potentially get our project shut down over something as stupid as piracy
@limes hello
@selzero They shouldn't have taken his account, but don't go around and spread misinformation like this
This is EXTREMELY misleading and full of misinformation. They didn't give him "@ Muscan", they gave him "@ Musicfan". All of his followers, tweets, etc all carried over. They aren't "squatting on his 11 million followers" either, he never had that many. They renamed the old TwitterMusic account, which had the 11 million followers
@sladewatkins Thanks for reaching out! We will definitely keep the offer in mind!
Out of curiosity, have we worked together before? I remember back when AC:NH first released someone in OatmealDome's server was working on an app for the game and I was helping reverse engineer the BCSV file format at the time!
If you're a white person on the #Fediverse and you want to help make it less hostile for Black folks:
-search #BlackMastodon or #BlackFedi or #BlackFediverse
-follow some Black folks
-boost their posts
-do this semi-regularly
-listen to Black folks and support them when they complain about #racism they've experienced here or elsewhere, PLEASE do not get defensive about Mastodon. Work through those feelings on your own
Those are my suggestions for a good start.
Another huge funding update! We have officially reached (and now surpassed!) 33% of total funding! We are over 1/3 of the way towards making Pretendo development a full time job!
Reblog if you think trans people are rad
Ah yes, the age-old yoga pose of, "compiling a library on a thermally constrained laptop"
A lot of you likely know me as a developer, most notably as the lead developer of @pretendo
Software development has been my passion since I first touched a computer over 10 years ago
What many of you might *not* know however, is that I’m a mechanic as my day job! I’m looking to quit and do software development, self employed, full time soon. But for now I work on tractor trucks!
It’s getting colder where I live and I work outside, so I got myself some new gear! I’m bad at selfies, lol
Not gonna lie: I haven't been as excited about a "new thing in tech" as I am about this recent growth of Mastodon in a looong time.
Sure, things right now are chaotic. And we're tearing at the networks we built over the years. It just won't be the same as Twitter.
But it's a breath of fresh air. It's the first new platform in a while I'm optimistic will actually work in favor of users more so than corporate greed.
Let's build something new! I can't wait to see where we'll take this 🥳
