I started off in 2005 on Neopets. There was a feature that let you create your own custom pages for anything which I thought was the coolest thing at the time. I had to learn HTML and CSS to get started.

Turns out that was way cooler than Neopets. Don’t get me wrong, Neopets is awesome, but I absolutely fell in love with building with code back then. Fast-forward to now, I’m a senior dev at a VC studio helping various startups get off the ground.

I’m a fan of learning and building, so it’s kept me in this career ever since. It’s been fun seeing the times change with all sorts of tech. Am a giant fan of FOSS and love contributing where I can.

Do you have the Nintendo Switch Online expansion pack? Do you like it? (kbin.social)
 

I’ve been lightly eyeing it for a few months now since Nintendo 64 and Gameboy Advance games are available through the expansion, but wanted to see if people here have the expansion and like it.
