• Hi, this is Alex, creator of @mastodeck.
  
  I’m sorry for the lack of updates and progress. I had a mental health crisis for the past year, and to put it simply, even thinking about anything related to computers gave me anxiety. Weird, I know—but I’m doing great now!
  
  I’m back to using the computer, cloned the repo locally two weeks ago, and I’m already fixing things and making updates. It feels good to get going again.
  
  Stay tuned!
