That 4chan meme picture doesn't make it look very trustworthy to be honest. Especially because the site asks for my data right after that. I'm sure I'm not going to give someone who likes 4chan memes my data.

Move along then friend, it’s a wide internet with plenty of spaces more curated to your tastes. Reddit has lots of subs where 4chan-inspired humor is off limits, I can suggest them if you like. I’m sure when OP chose that name and logo he was worried about wet blankets coming to ruin the fun, well here one is.

If you’re the type to be offended by innocuous 4chan memes, you probably weren’t the target audience to begin with.

Personally, seeing a familiar, endearing meme like that actually brought me some comfort that the author was someone who was also raised online, not a bootcamp grad looking to cash in on a trend.

maker here. well hot dam, not sure I'm ready for this. But happy to answer any questions if it stays online. Literally I'm the only daily active user right now. back story -- I was a happy roam research user, but i found it too slow for my iphone se. Been at home more with a one year old, so gotten back in to programming during naps.

Very cool! Love the no-bullshit and concrete, to-the-point explanations. As one who tried a lot of TFT/SB apps, and built them too - I really appreciate the value of simple and focused ones. Sadly I won't use Grug as offline/onprem is a must for me, but you really set a new benchmark of what a MVP should look like.

Really inspiring. Let it bloom, and keep it up!
