    We’re back up and running.

    https://source.small-tech.org

    I tried downgrading our CPU/RAM to 2 cores and 4GB to see if we could halve our hosting costs but, no, that doesn’t cover GitLab’s resting heart rate even. So it took a little longer as I had to resize the VPS again.

    Also, remember that our current projects are all also mirrored on GitHub at https://github.com/small-tech and that’s where we take issues, merge requests, etc.

    Apologies if you’re trying to reach source.small-tech.org – it’s going to be down for the next hour or two. We ran out of space so I’m not snapshotting the server and then I’ll be migrating it to one with more hard disk space.

    Also a good time to again look into alternatives to GitLab that don’t cost the earth to run (will have to look into Gitea again).

    “A female colleague and [I] had dared to discuss wage transparency and gender pay gap in the office … Unfortunately we miscalculated – our boss Matthias was beyond furious. After that office meeting, he told my colleague ‘there will be consequences.’ … I want to expose the hypocrisy and double standards in FSFE leadership. How the organisation ‘promoting’ transparency, equality and inclusivity treats employees and more specifically women.”

    Hey folks our web sites are currently down as the lovely folks at Greenhost are under a DDOS attack.

    They provide free hosting for organisations like ours that work on improving the infrastructure for human rights in the digital network age with their http://eclips.is project.

    So I don’t use Chrome but I have Ungoogled Chromium (https://codeberg.org/Eloston/ungoogled-chromium) as certain things only work under Chrom(ium) and I only just realised Google requires a Google account to install extensions.

    Wow.

    Hint: You can bypass this restriction using this the Ungoogled Extension Installer: https://github.com/UnnoTed/Ungoogled-Chromium-Extension-Installer

    The lengths we have to go to in order to protect our privacy from basic everyday things is ridiculous. We need fundamental change. Surveillance capitalism needs to die.

    @colby 1. IPFS is by a venture-backed firm so their ultimate goals are scale + a billion-dollar exit. That’s not what we’re about.

    2. If you own your own place on the Small Place, it doesn’t mean that you magically opt out of the laws in your jurisdiction – hopefully laws enacted by a democratically-elected government that reflect the will of the people (I know, I know). It means that you’re personally liable for what you post there.

    We have a justice system to deal with issues of law.

    I will be demonstrating a very early proof-of-concept on small-web.org for the first time (setting up your own small web server in ~30 seconds).
