"What is also clear is that once we pass this tipping point, there is no going back. The only way to make the ice sheet regrow would be to cool the planet down to the temperature it was during the last ice age, says Sutter. “No one wants that.”

#Snikket has launched a hosting service;

"Our goal, as a not-for-profit organization, is to run this sustainably. Our business model is a simple one that does not involve data harvesting/mining. Instead we charge a simple fee per instance that you host with us... This fee pays for the servers, maintenance and other associated costs. Any extra revenue is used to further our goals - building and promoting sustainable communication solutions."

> Needs to have different rooms/channels/chats so as to allow clarity of communication. Can Snikket do this?

Yes. Other XMPP hosting service can probably provide this too. But paying for the Snikket service supports the project's work on improving the XMPP experience for the average person.

Disclaimer: I've done a bit of paid work for Snikket. Also, the answer to your question is yes for Matrix too, and there may be a Matrix hosting service that also meets your needs.

Shameless self-promotion; Bridge Seat Co-op plan to eventually offer Aotearoa-hosted chat servers for both XMPP (probably Snikket) and Matrix. It will go up the priority list for testing if there are signs of strong demand.

We need help to pay for our backups. This is a yearly funding campaign that we do, so if you can help us please see here tromsite.com/trom-backup/ - we only need 300 Euros for a full year of 4TB encrypted backups.

This means everything from our videos and documentaries, books, websites, including trom.tf (meaning all of the files that users have uploaded to our services - from Peertube videos to Nextcloud files). Everything!

300 Euros to make sure that we have everything backed-up in a secure place.

Please help if you can and thanks a lot for doing that!

My graphic showing cumulative change in the mass of reference glaciers around the world has now been updated with 2023's data. We are losing ice.

- Why people do not take time to stop and reflect on their environment?
- I think, it's because our society values productivity above all else. We're constantly bombarded with messages telling us to work harder, do more, achieve more. As a result, we often prioritize accomplishing tasks over taking breaks or enjoying leisure activities.

There are 4 services that we use for TROM.tf via @YunoHost that are either broken or not updated in some time. I will try to look more into, but these are :

Friendica github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien… see github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien…
Nextcloud github.com/YunoHost-Apps/nextc… see github.com/YunoHost-Apps/nextc…
Discourse that's broken github.com/YunoHost-Apps/disco…
And unfortunately Peertube that seems to suffer from some bugs with the update github.com/YunoHost-Apps/peert…

If anyone can help out that'd be awesome, because it would help us all. If not at least support Yunohost financially if you can afford that donate.yunohost.org/

Yunohost is a fantastic project that allows us to provide so many trade-free services for everyone.

I hope they/we can find a solution for these packages....

Clear the decks.

TLDR We can't burn the human power as we did in '23. We're requesting a "staff" donation goal in the hopes the community will back RFF going all in for '24. If not we'll scale back offerings and initiatives.

Either way we still need more help from the community for station direction and community building and outreach out in the feeds.

more comradery. more events. more love. more fun.
