I understand perfectly what you mean. As a solo dev, I can guarantee you it's nothing but blood and tears. 😂 Okay, it's fun at times, too! But hard work for sure.

Much appreciated!

Absolutely, no offense taken! It's getting increasingly hard to "avoid" AI as it's in so many tools. The art is a mixture of photos, photo manipulation, and drawings. It's pseudo-ASCII, under the hood, pixel art, with sub-pixel texture and a shader. 😁

The short answer is no!

The long answer is that I do write with Grammarly, which can suggest and help fix grammar. It can also help find alternative words and rephrase a sentence, which is great, especially for someone writing in a foreign language. 😁

Thank you very much!

Hehe, thanks! I'm happy with how it turned out. It's pseudo-ASCII, came from experimenting, but looks pretty neat.

I know what you mean. Luckily, Bluesky has been good for me!
