@bunnyluvr__ I mean, I used to be muuuuch higher before I stopped tweeting for some years and slid back into the shadows!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

Doing some digital spring cleaning and I found an archive of every minecraft screenshot I took from about 2012-2016 whilst developing stuff. Oh boy :D I think this was my first attempt at putting armour on mobs. Look at him 🥺

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@SpencerNaugle No idea! :D

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

We figured it out! The chrome extension "Flash Player Enabler" (a repackaged Ruffle, no longer on the store) added this text to all pages. Someone with the extension used a WYSIWYG editor or similar, and then that text gets added to websites by mistake.

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

Fellow tech nerds: We (Ruffle) just noticed that a bunch of websites started including the phrase "Today <date> you use ruffle!"

We have literally no idea why. Smells like some malicious injection of some kind. They don't use Ruffle, at least. Any ideas?

@DeiruB How about https://t.co/p64P0XKOJg :D

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@TheHolyWACK It's nothing in our code! Could still be something someone else wrote that got vibed around though

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@z2rMC Some aren't wordpress, one is even aspx

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@DeiruB Would https://t.co/EzdwToSJAd fit that description to you? I don't know if I'd class that as a content mill but I also would have no reason to visit this site, to know 😅
From what I can tell it seems reputable enough

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@dom_scholz Thank you, and yes!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@TheHolyWACK It's actually on the websites. One person reported seeing it on a payment form, even - that's what brought it to our attention.

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

There's hundreds, maybe thousands of these. I know many of these projects & even I'd be fooled by some of these sites at a glance. OSS projects are under attack in mass, and I can only assume it's for malware.
I've not heard about this on such a big scale before, I'm in shock!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

I almost fell for a scam site today, pretending to be the homepage of an OSS project that I was looking for. It looked convincing until I scrolled to read more text. LLM slop is getting scary good at "looks good at a glance". I don't even know _how_ they managed this.

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

This was the first hit for me when I googled DxWnd, a tool I heard about to help me play an old game on a modern computer. The other hit I found was a different LLM generated website for this tool. The commonality? They both have the same email. Googling that and... holy crap!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

I'm alive! Kinda! Ish!
I've managed to go to the mojang office 5 whole times this year! That's a big achievement for my health and I'm pretty proud.
I'm hard at work on [things] for Minecraft (Java) - I might even talk about some of them soon over at 🦋https://t.co/RQ9EaZLX7z 👀

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@wChiwi Also try a hug on Chi, just sayin'

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@zealousquiche Great haul!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

To those mailing/tweeting/DMing/etc me blaming & insulting me about some Minecraft stuff: I've been off work for 1.5 years for my health. I physically can't get out of bed most of the time and it's getting worse by the day. I have nothing to do with anything you're upset over.

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

@westmaaan @MiaLem_n Best birthday club! ❤️ Happy birthdays us!

[Nathan Adams @Dinnerbone]

Oh I also forgot to mention that I just passed my 10 year anniversary working at Mojang and thus on Minecraft!

It was in February 😅

It doesn't feel like 10 years. Gosh. I was a teenager when I started modding Minecraft and now I'm 30. Oh dear. Time is escaping!
