Its always a risk putting your faith into a single person, but Dan is the same guy who built Pixelfed. He’s a Fediverse OG, literally the exact opposite of a grifter. Trusting him is a risk for sure, but I can’t think of many other developers I’d trust more than him (at least in terms of his intentions and determination… I’m not a skilled dev so I can’t speak to whether he actually does good work, but Pixelfed seems incredibly legit given the limited resources he’s worked with)
