I understand that you want to emphasize that your open source project has lots of financial backers.

I understand that you want to emphasize that your open source project has lots of financial backers. Just consider that this particular list of financial backers does not exactly fill me with confidence

@jalefkowit At least it's pretty clear what the project's useful for so... yay? I guess?

[jalefkowit@vmst.io]

@wordshaper The strange thing is that it's a perfectly cromulent general-purpose tool, there's nothing about it that is specific to online gaming or shady social network scamming. It just happens to have attracted lots of financial support from those worlds.

"Nonono, our sponsor is LEGAL Casino." Oh ok. That sounds legit

My retirement plan involves putting everything on red at Casino Without Swedish License

[itamarst@hachyderm.io]

@jalefkowit @wordshaper Might be SEO "pay-for-links" thing from the perspective of the sponsors?

[jalefkowit@vmst.io]

@itamarst @wordshaper Quite possibly! But offering the project's website as a cheap way to scam search engines wouldn't exactly fill me with confidence in the project either

@jalefkowit what on earth...a PRNG package or...

[jalefkowit@vmst.io]

@dustin I'd post a link, but it's a JavaScript library and in my experience critiquing a JavaScript library is construed as an open invitation for people to suggest ten thousand indistinguishable alternative JavaScript libraries

@jalefkowit is this real

[jalefkowit@vmst.io]

@glyph Yep. I’m not nearly creative enough to come up with names like “Casino Without Swedish License”
