No longer use Twitter unless I've been sent something or posting on @FireDiscordBot. You can find me on Instagram/Threads - @ gaminggeek․dev

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

thinking about reducing my usage of this app/site, starting by removing it from my phone

I've been trying to mirror posts on threads for the last while so that's where I'll likely go towards so https://t.co/oQ6249uWSt

I don't think I'll be gone completely from here... for now

@FunnyBirdDari @rafessor_ @twolays @CheesyKirah @modrinth How to request deletion is outlined in the privacy policy, the place you would expect to find this kind of thing

@gavplaysmc No we don't. Free Palestine.

Get this free cape! NOW!

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@HeyItsPopsy @mealofoats @modrinth what about the Minecraft usage guidelines that explicitly allow "Selling cosmetics, except for capes or anything that attempts to visually act like the feature of a Minecraft player cape" (all of Essential's capes are free)

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@CubitoIsHere @codeHusky The community would not be able to provide those kinds of things though, that's a completely unreasonable ask for random people across the world compared to a well established company that already has those resources

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@CubitoIsHere @codeHusky Resources are more than just money. Spark is providing employment (as most if not all of the Modrinth team were contractors before), HR, legal etc.

Jai was also not lazy, he wanted to step aside (but not away) and have more time to focus on other things, like college

@lostboys What you see in that repository is exactly what you're getting in the versions distributed on the Essential website, Modrinth & Curseforge, so much so that you can build it yourself to validate it matches

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@lostboys The source available repository is a separate repository to where the developers actually work on the mod. For each release of the mod, it gets cleaned up and pushed to this repository then built by CI and only after that build can it be released

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@violet_rancor @cosmoscite @nerd1869107 Data isn't sold or given to advertisers lol, it's used to see how the mod is being used and the only time any data is shared is with partnered creators

Cosmetics are the product, not your data. The cosmetics are there to cover the costs of making & running the mod

@cineworld I am looking to cancel my Unlimited membership but cannot find any way to do so or any contact details on the Irish website

I did hear the Irish branch of Cineworld was recently sold (and that's partly why I am cancelling) so I hope you're still able to help here

The Aether is as dangerous as it is beautiful.

@bfo_crazy @DalekIsBored You can view the source for the mod, the installer & the partner integration on GitHub if you have any concerns about what any of them do

[Jake Ward @gaminggeekdev]

@bfo_crazy @DalekIsBored This is a completely optional integration offered to mod partners which adds a button to the main menu (the blue button on the right) to let you know about Essential & quickly install if you want or hide and never see it again
