She had a huge influence in the early days of gaming, and many will remember her as a caring, genuinely funny and passionate woman who loved her work and people.
I saw the news on Reddit about her GoFoundMe, as well as the tragic update a day ago, and now the sad news of her passing, and I thought some people here on Lemmy would gladly take the chance to remember her and celebrate her life.
She regularly posted on Mastodon, and during the last month there was a post every few days about how much she was in pain. It was heartbreaking really, and finding out that she lost that battle didn’t make it any better.
