@mattmcnutt should have told them it was a Google Doodle.

@jason update his avatar to a pic of him smiling - looks really natural, friendly and cool.

I update my avatar to a pic of a similar vein - look like a complete and utter pratt who's just had a mild stroke. 😂😂😂

I'll stick with "moody" I think.

@Hawk1291 well, welcome then. 😁

@Hawk1291 crap, did they have another outage?

@wdavery so it's a photo I had, I desaturated all the colour, then applied a filter on to it using an android app called Prisma. The filter was "heisenberg". I then played with it in gimp to get the contrast how I wanted.

@MatejLach that's interesting. I always thought GL was proprietary on top. I learned something there, thanks.

You're right though, I'm not interested in hosting my own Git instance - way too much hassle.

I'm not a developer (far from it), so it's not a major issue for me to move around if needed - in only have 1 project haha.

@MatejLach and Gitlab isn't? Just because it's got an open core, it's still all proprietary on top as I understand it.

To be honest, I'm not really bothered about proprietary vs OSS in this instance, decentralisation is the issue here. That's why I went with BB. Many seem to be jumping ship from Github to Gitlab.

Soooo my new WordPress theme is on BitBucket now...enjoy.

@AndrzejL 😂😂😂😂😂😂 brilliant!

@steko it's more about one company not having total control, rather than proprietary vs OSS. This link aligns closely with my reasoning...

So #Microsoft now own #Github. I was going to publish the new theme for my website on there, but I think I'll use #BitBucket now...

@ignitionigel @DistroJunkie screw it, I changed it back. People will just need to know I'm happy in the inside.

@ignitionigel @DistroJunkie I still don't like the new one. I look so gormless when I smile haha.

@DistroJunkie me too! But intense Kev looks way too much like really pissed off Kev. Haha

@AndrzejL we can create a new CRON that will delete your data from the backups if you like? I'm sure Jason won't mind. 😂😂

@mike @jason @fosstodon

That's a bit more like the real me. 👍

@timapple I did, thank you. But I'm suffering today haha.
