Yo!

Software developer and gamer. Started on the Commodore 64 with both and never stopped.

Having been through several tech enshittification cycles, I've long been wondering when Reddit would be too "meh" for me. That happened earlier this week, when I decided that Lemmy was more the tech and community I was looking for. Planned to leave gracefully during June.

Then I saw the AMA and... That set off my "Fuck This Shit with a Vengeance" so currently coding up a script to make my Reddit account die very ungracefully.

I too started on C64! Though in my case it was as late as '92 when a seven year young kid got an already old C64 with cassette player, a manual, and no games. Sometimes one gotta make ones own fun, literally.
