What you've done the last five years is impressive. I hope you can get some rest soon, and that the Fediverse can fund a few people to lower your workload to a reasonable level.

@Gargron Mastodon is a great project, but it is not worth your health. Everyone please take care of yourselves.

I rarely talk about how tough this job can be, since I feel responsibility to only associate positive things with the project. But it is a lot of responsibilities, and a lot of stress, for what can sometimes feel like inadequate pay.
