i'm ewan — developer, writer, occasional poet. i build open-source ATProto tooling,
self-host most of my own infrastructure, and take commissions for things i'm actually
good at.

if any of that is useful or interesting to you, ko-fi.com/ewancroft
is where commissions live:

• poetry from £10
• short stories from £20
• SvelteKit websites from £100

everything's CC BY-SA 4.0. no NDAs, no nonsense.

tips are also welcome if you've got use out of anything i've made or written.
either way, cheers.

Dear Friends across the #decentralised #fediverse,

Top of the day ta ya! 🥰

Today I haz:

1) Continued the process of site stripping (mostly JavaScript garbage) for my offline #HTML. Well... Offline for now

2) Been drinking. Thames Water (the most toxic in the UK). Not even fit for most fish at source.

3) Dreaming of the RW (Real World) of the Future)

"You were born with potential. You were born with goodness and trust. You were born with ideals and dreams. You were born with greatness. You were born with wings. You are not meant for crawling, so don't. You have wings. Learn to use them and fly." ~ #Rumi

So Jay Graber is stepping down from CEO of Bluesky. I have to say I'm not surprised. She's definatly got more developer energy then CEO energy tbh. Plus how she responded to genuine concerns over transphobia on teh platform was just horrendious.

I'm not crazy about the choice of having a venture capitalist as the temporary fill in. But he is assuming this role termporarily. Let's hope this doesn't turn into another MAGA cesspool like Twitter.
