@dansup@mastodon.social WHaaat, why?

@dansup Wait what?

@dansup whaaat? 😔

@dansup This is definitely not good…

@dansup WAT!? Why?

@dansup whaaaaaat? why?

@dansup Lack of users / funding / time ?

@dansup can you please tell what happened?

@dansup Please, reconsider.😟

@dansup ??

@dansup I’ve lost the context here. I can see the split about potential Meta federation

I will miss seeing new Pixelfed progress.

@dansup
You've done tremendous work and don't owe anything to anyone. We'd love you to keep it up but your well being is what matters most. Hugs, man. 💛

@dansup huh?

@dansup Wait, what?!

@dansup@mastodon.social Sorry for this but totally understand.

@dansup why?

@dansup@mastodon.social What happened???

@dansup Why? I don't think I follow anyone there, but I certainly see retoots ... oh well, your business. I'm just curious.

@dansup If you’re interested in transferring ownership I’d be interested. I’m sure there would be others, too

@dansup I realized today it's been over a decade that I've known you and it's been fantastic seeing everything you've managed to do in this time.

I understand wanting to back off a bit after reading some half-baked opinions today. Very few people have any idea how much time you've put into federated social media (since the old GNUSocial days) and I was pretty annoyed today seeing your intentions called into question.

h8rs gonna h8 bro. you're a real one ❤️

@dansup For those who don't know, these aren't instances so no user accounts are impacted. One is a stats site that tracks instance size/activity stats and the other is an informational getting started site. There are many others but I have to say fedidb.org was the best looking site for keeping track of instance size/growth and it will be missed!

@dansup@mastodon.social

Take care mate <3

@dansup@mastodon.social I hope you're doing okay ​:blobfoxheart:​

@dansup oh

@dansup@mastodon.social What the? oO

@dansup what happened?

@dansup :( Sad news. Hope you're doing okay Dan.

@dansup So sorry to hear. Are you still open to finding a new home for #FediDb?

@dansup Take care.

@dansup I hope it's a post-ironic joke about the NDA situation

@dansup Can you at least tell us what's going on?

And if the projects can be spared somehow?

@dansup Please upload the data base to some place like https://dolthub.com.
Please don’t let the data die!

@dansup That’s sad.

@dansup Excellent. It's a great piece of work.

@dansup anyone who takes moment to explore the fantastic tools available for newcomers to the Fediverse (like myself) will immediately see you fingerprints on everything. It is pelear you are working your butt off for others!
Thank you and don’t listen to haters.

@dansup Dan, you’ve done amazing work with this and pixelfed, don’t throw it all away over some trolls and drama.

Take a week off; hell, take a month or two. But clear your head and come back less angry and hurt. This will all still be here (yes, the good *and* the bad), ready to be made better.
