Really excited by becoming a collaborator on #stegodon - It's such an exciting piece of software! I did however spend most of my morning countering #scrapers on lemmy.zip - the fun of hosting a site on the #fediverse eh :)

Happy to have you on board! Maybe we cannot compete with the other prehistoric 🦣, but all the #terminal #tui lovers out there are missing out!
