⚠️ Important PSA about #Pocket ‼️

If you used Pocket to save interesting articles you found online, you may be aware that #Mozilla decided to shut down the app and discontinue support.

I vaguely remembered that date was July and had a mini-heart attack when I saw it was actually July 8.

Good news though: if you, like me, have hundreds of articles saved to Pocket, you have until October 8 to request an export of your data (I just did): https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/future-of-pocket

🏕️ my adventures in #selfhosting - day 202 (new chapter edition) 📖​

Hello Fedi friends,

I can't believe I missed the 200 day anniversary of my self-hosting journey. Life got in the way. I was in Como enjoying some family time and listening to the local philarmonic orchestra, so I cannot complain.

I'm thinking of changing things around here and publishing "my adventures in self-hosting" posts on my website first and syndicating them here. You know, the POSSE method and all, inspired by the great @molly0xfff@hachyderm.io.

This is by all means not a criticism of any Fediverse or social media platform.

It's just that I find it more empowering to have published content in a place where it is easily searchable... and it's not really the case here or anywhere else.

Social media glorify the present but I love the ability to go back in time to see what I was up to 6 months, a year or 5 years ago.

As a mom with aging parents, the idea of legacy is always front and center in my mind. I wanna build something that my daughter, when is older, could easily read, if she so chooses. But I'm also thinking of fellow newbies who are curious about self-hosting... having my self-hosting posts in a more organized space could definitely help others.

So this may be the last longform post I publish here natively. Future ones will be shared here of course, but will live on my website.

Anyway, it's time for my Monday routine: #YunoHost manual backup.

Wishing you all a lovely day / week! 💛

@sebsauvage Cool ! Je ne connaissais pas. Merci !!! En plus il est dans la banque des apps de #Yunohost 🙂

Mayday! #YunoHost needs your support!

YunoHost is free, but we do have expenses. According to our projections, our budget will be half covered by the end of the year.

Whether it's giving your time, making a donation or spreading kind words, your contributions are always greatly appreciated! Thank you!

#YNH #selfhosting #donate #gratitude

Good morning Fedi friends!

If you've been following my toots for a while, you know how incredibly grateful I am to @yunohost for empowering me to self-host my own fedi instances.

Six months ago I knew nothing about self-hosting. Now, thanks to #YunoHost and the superb tools they offer (for free!), I am running my own #GoToSocial, #Friendica, #Pixelfed and #PeerTube instances. I am a new and improved and more empowered digital citizen thanks to it. I cannot begin to describe the immense gratitude I feel towards YunoHost and its team of volunteers.

Well, today I have a chance to give back (a little). YunoHost has just launched a crowdfunding campaign to cover its operating costs for the rest of the year.

I just donated to it - and if you have the means could you join me in doing so, too? Every euro / dollar / yen counts.

YunoHost has the incredible mission of empowering anyone to self-host their digital services - not just fediverse software, but HUNDREDS of free open source apps.

Needless to say, I want YunoHost to continue operating and to thrive for many many years to come. Its services are ESSENTIAL.

Thank you YunoHost for changing my life and wishing you great success with your fundraising campaign! 💚🪴
