Some people complain, some people ship change.

If a high school drop-out like me can learn how to code, what is stopping you?

Seriously though, I'm living proof that a gay, indigenous, high school dropout from redneck Alberta can defy all odds and practice to become the developer he always dreamed of.

Never stop believing in yourself ❤️

@dansup you're a fucking awesome dude, Dan. Don't ever forget it.

I, among others, look up to your amazing work.

Much solidarity.

@dansup You're amazing!

The Google Play beta of Pixelfed is fantastic, and I'm looking forward to Loops!

Keep up the great work!

@dansup very impressive. what motivated u? and what did you learn first.

all the information needed is freely available online. but knowing exactly what is needed takes experience or guidance
