Washboard is in maintenance mode
Hi all,
You probably guessed as much from the lack of updates over the last couple years, but I’m making it official: Washboard is essentially “done” at this point. I will do my best to keep the site online for as long as people find value in it (which a startling number of you still do!), but I just don’t have the time to rewrite everything from the ground up like I touted in 2018.
Thanks for sticking around for so long, and please do send me a message if anything breaks (although by now, any weird behavior is usually the Tumblr API’s fault and not mine 😉).
It’s due in part to Washboard that I was able to get my first job writing code at my university, and due largely to that job that I was able to land subsequent jobs in the industry. In some small way, every one of you has helped me stay afloat in this increasingly nightmarish capitalist hellscape. Sincerely, thank you all for being a part of this project.
