I commissioned YokaiS to create this 3D model inspired by my avatar complete with texturing and rigging in both Blockbench & Blender. He's awesome and so is YokaiS! They are working on a portfolio.

It started as a joke with moderators that I should become an influencer / vtuber on social media. Silabear recommended YokaiS could do the model and now here we are.

What comes next?! Not sure the whole influencer thing is for me but... maybe some fun animations or at least poses will come.

What's that!!?? A new skin???!!

R.I.P. RIF... Reddit was fun, now it's going to be guilty visits to the only site I visited longer than PMC. Is sad but guess that's the state of the internet.

We've been focusing on optimizing PMC lately and was stumped by something for past few days and how to approach it. However, while digging into more advanced solutions, we identified a simple fix that was slowing down all content listing pages. This also impacted "cards" on the site that listed content such as trending, more content by {username}, etc.

You should see a significant improvement while browsing all major content sections (maps, skins, texture packs, data packs, mods, etc) except for servers, sorry. Will fix server listing speed soon / next.

This should have impact on entire platform speed... a great day for dev and PMC!
