@bunnyluvr__ I mean, I used to be muuuuch higher before I stopped tweeting for some years and slid back into the shadows!

@Dinnerbone just noticed youll hit 500k with this tweet holy fuck

Doing some digital spring cleaning and I found an archive of every minecraft screenshot I took from about 2012-2016 whilst developing stuff. Oh boy :D I think this was my first attempt at putting armour on mobs. Look at him 🥺

@SpencerNaugle No idea! :D

@Dinnerbone This looks familiar. Did you post this back when it happened?

We figured it out! The chrome extension "Flash Player Enabler" (a repackaged Ruffle, no longer on the store) added this text to all pages. Someone with the extension used a WYSIWYG editor or similar, and then that text gets added to websites by mistake.

Fellow tech nerds: We (Ruffle) just noticed that a bunch of websites started including the phrase "Today <date> you use ruffle!" We have literally no idea why. Smells like some malicious injection of some kind. They don't use Ruffle, at least. Any ideas? google.com/search?q=%22To…

@DeiruB How about ymps.cyc.edu.tw/modules/tadnew… :D

@Dinnerbone Okay maybe content mill might be a bit harsh but it is at least a link - every site I've seen with it so far, including that one - is articles written by Southern California News Group or authors affiliated with them.

@TheHolyWACK It's nothing in our code! Could still be something someone else wrote that got vibed around though

@Dinnerbone Is that specific phrase referenced in your code somewhere? Maybe a GPT agent picked it up and developers are vibe coding it into their websites lol. I'm not sure of any kind of maliciousness that could come from that in a security perspective

@z2rMC Some aren't wordpress, one is even aspx

@DeiruB Would ocregister.com/2025/07/22/ram… fit that description to you? I don't know if I'd class that as a content mill but I also would have no reason to visit this site, to know 😅 From what I can tell it seems reputable enough

@Dinnerbone This is a wild guess but all these seem to be content mills. I..don't think it's malicious injection but someone copying/pasting JSON into GraphQL from their devtools while they potentially have Ruffle installed? Site wouldn't use it, but author is copying comment accidentally

@dom_scholz Thank you, and yes!

@Dinnerbone Happy Birthday! :D This ruffle?: ruffle.rs

@TheHolyWACK It's actually on the websites. One person reported seeing it on a payment form, even - that's what brought it to our attention.

@Dinnerbone Not just some weird SEO?

There's hundreds, maybe thousands of these. I know many of these projects & even I'd be fooled by some of these sites at a glance. OSS projects are under attack in mass, and I can only assume it's for malware. I've not heard about this on such a big scale before, I'm in shock!

This was the first hit for me when I googled DxWnd, a tool I heard about to help me play an old game on a modern computer. The other hit I found was a different LLM generated website for this tool. The commonality? They both have the same email. Googling that and... holy crap!

I almost fell for a scam site today, pretending to be the homepage of an OSS project that I was looking for. It looked convincing until I scrolled to read more text. LLM slop is getting scary good at "looks good at a glance". I don't even know _how_ they managed this.

I'm alive! Kinda! Ish! I've managed to go to the mojang office 5 whole times this year! That's a big achievement for my health and I'm pretty proud. I'm hard at work on [things] for Minecraft (Java) - I might even talk about some of them soon over at 🦋dinnerbone.com 👀

@wChiwi Also try a hug on Chi, just sayin'

@zealousquiche Great haul!

To those mailing/tweeting/DMing/etc me blaming & insulting me about some Minecraft stuff: I've been off work for 1.5 years for my health. I physically can't get out of bed most of the time and it's getting worse by the day. I have nothing to do with anything you're upset over.

@westmaaan @MiaLem_n Best birthday club! ❤️ Happy birthdays us!

Oh I also forgot to mention that I just passed my 10 year anniversary working at Mojang and thus on Minecraft! It was in February 😅 It doesn't feel like 10 years. Gosh. I was a teenager when I started modding Minecraft and now I'm 30. Oh dear. Time is escaping!
