That is good to hear.
If you don't have fun while programming - you are doing it wrong.
Yeah I am surprised to see the matrix stuff lagg, not sure if same thing..
like there's something alike cmatrix in the `xclock` program.. and I think
that it could be better.

I thought I read that as some Matrix client lol.
I still didn't figure out how to Tor-ify ii/sic :d.

Anyways - make sure you slap a good license for those who care about
licensing (I do not). I recommend CC0+IP waiver, because it can be used on
stuff other than code.
But if you want something more simple - I recommend BSD Zero-Clause license.

Have a great day.
