Friend of mine is writing a book about videogames... He's in need of a good editor.

It's a paid gig -- if any freelancers are available and have the chops to do this sort of work on a professional level, hit me up with your particulars.

And if not you bt you know someone, please spread the word!

@bsky.app Is there an option on your roadmap to release a tool similar to TweetDeck? This tool was invaluable to me for my work, and would love to be able to use it again on Bluesky!
