Some personal news: this month marks 10 years since I first started developing Delta!
So much has changed since then, but I couldn’t be more thankful to still be working on it after all this time 💜
So please enjoy this “10-year anniversary” update, and here’s to another decade of Delta 🥳

To celebrate our 30th birthday, @shanegillio.bsky.social and I invited 14 of our closest friends to compete in a game of Survivor all weekend
The challenges were intense, the backstabbing was real, but in the end there could only be one Sole Survivor™ — congrats Shane 🏆
