For the record there are no co-founders of Mastodon. Not in a startup way (it's not a startup) nor in a development way (I started the project on my own)
I'm only saying this because I've seen someone claim to be a Mastodon co-founder, not to toot my own horn.
@Gargron I saw that too and was like what? Who r u
@Gargron I can't believe I've been here over a week and I haven't told you this yet: You're kinda awesome. :)
@Gargron when you toot here you have more claim to the horn than anyone else
@Gargron Ah... the humans... :rolling_eyes:
@Gargron <sigh/> weird energy to have to deal with
@Gargron That's very rude of them.
@Gargron I see what you did there... Clever
@gargron what a bunch of fuck heads
.@Gargron well, you've built something pretty cool. I think you deserve a little horn-tootin'. :grin:
@Gargron tooting our own horns is literally why we are here
@Gargron @Hueman that and for the immature chuckle we get from pressing a button that says "TOOT!". lol
@Gargron Haha! Welcome! Mastodon Co-Founder here! Hope you're having fun!

@Gargron Haha, the things people will claim :D

I run some national events in my field, and once overheard someone claiming to a friend of mine "Oh yeah, me and David," *crosses fingers* "we're like that". To this day I've still never met them.

@Gargron What the heck is wrong with people? I hope you banned him.

@Gargron Impressive, and worth noting for the record. :)

(And 'impressive' is understating my take on it, TBQH.)

@Gargron well you seem to be tooting quite a bit to be fair

@Gargron Such a great job already, Eugen ! Imade the promise to mself to give (one shot) someday to your Patreon account.

For now, I'm currently observing with amazement, and trying to help the newcomers. Around 700 more users in the last hour ! Good Man ! A Savior you are ! :)

@Gargron I do like that you're account 1 and @mmn is account 2
@Gargron @gustavoramos nice one gustavo! co-founder heh? GGWPWND :rofl:
@Gargron but are you a stack of gnomes disguised as one person?
@Gargron see I was going to bug you to confirm, but I figured it was so trivially disprovable that I didn't even bother to do so

@Gargron Thanks.

@gustavoramos "Gustavo Ramos" was claiming to be a co-founder. A friend noticed, he's got a good eye for oddness, and my investigations pretty much confirmed.

@Gargron When it's a global phenomenon I suspect no-one will believe my "tootsuite" suggestion.

Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

@Gargron Or maybe that's what the repo path always was and I am in fact being a deluded fool. :-)

@Gargron

I'm going to insist I'm recognized as a co-flounder tho

sorry, Eugen, but I MUST insist

I MUST

:P
