Do you like retro software? Are you on Mastodon/Fediverse? Give this bot a follow.

Created it while watching football this weekend. Pretty simple, it just takes the RSS feed from the Macintosh Garden and grabs the first image if available and posts it. Keep up to date with all that newly posted vintage software.

Follow here:
