@Tempest@burningboard.net I wasn't aware of Sharkey back then, so no, I didn't hear about any of this. Now that you mention it, their use of Discord is also concerning. We're all on Fedi to get away from corporate monoculture. Especially now that Discord has gone full “papers, please.” Sigh. This is really sad. I thought they were good people. What the heck did they need a “professionally designed” website for, anyway? They're a programmer/trans collective, not a fintech startup. @HailsandAles@metalhead.club

@Tempest@burningboard.net Did you ever find out exactly which of them was involved in the shady business? Who's guilty of what? @HailsandAles@metalhead.club

@argv_minus_one@mastodon.sdf.org Oh, I do remember their (Sharkey) Discord server. That was where they picked on and laughed about everyone who complained about the server being used to play Minecraft, or how the website remained offline after they raised the money, or how people were confused and a little upset about them wanting to be an LLC. I have zero doubts that one of their team members will read my post and have a laugh about this now, too. They're a group of trolls, in my opinion. And since I don't let up or give up, they'd likely say the same. @HailsandAles@metalhead.club
