Today's not April Fools Day either.
Today is May 8th, 2020, not April 1st, 2020.

HAPPY HAPPY
You don't look a day over 8. Thanks, my fold friends.
According to his user page, spvincent joined Foldit in 2007.
If the date this was posted, 05/08/2020, is Foldit's 12th birthday, then Foldit was created on 05/08/2008.
But spvincent joined Foldit in 2007, so Foldit must've existed in 2007 too, so it was not created in 2008.
So Foldit's birthday is either its 13th or above, not its 12th. It might be a typo.
