🎉 Happy Easter - Show me your Easter eggs :)
I have a 15-year-old homepage with a hidden chat from an old game 👉 yuna.berlin
Guess the game?

Easter: a seasonal reminder that most companies have the imagination of a beige wall.
Let’s talk software Easter eggs – tiny sparks of joy buried under layers of Jira tickets.

If your product has none?
Congratulations. Your engineers are either chained in the feature factory…
or your company is too visionless to let them play.

Examples of fun companies:
🐍 Snake while YouTube buffers
🎮 GitHub mobile mini-game
🙃 Blame-someone error pages

Your product?
❌ No dark mode
❌ No gamification
❌ No clever errors
❌ No i18n
❌ No responsive design
❌ No joy

But hey, Time to Market, right?
You’re not innovating. You’re duct-taping compliance machines.

No Easter eggs = No creative freedom
No themed UI = No empathy
No jokes = No soul
No dev input = No ownership

You’re not building software.
You’re crafting digital despair.

Fix it. Or at least add a theme toggle.

💀 Happy Easter.
Go find your soul.
