Lain is now @otter.tube @erinolivia@awoo.space

BTW if you like the work I'm doing on things like ActivityPub, maybe consider joining https://www.patreon.com/cwebber

To be clear: I'm not in a financial danger, I do have income from contracting, and I love my clients. However, I more or less paid for most of ActivityPub's specification work myself, and prioritizing community things is easier when I have to worry about contracting less.

Thanks everyone who's supporting already :)

PSA for people who #code:

Looking stuff up does NOT make you bad at coding.

"Not having to look up stuff" is NOT the benchmark for a good coder, especially as coders have to look up stuff ALL THE TIME!

And I don't mean highly advanced stuff, but stuff like "How does division work again?" or "What's that function called?" or my personal favorite "How to I nest for loops in list comprehensions?".

It's ok if you have to look up stuff!
