You *can* self-host it, the refactor branch is public

It just isn't recommended because proper documentation is still being written.

a trans woman i know is being deported back to the USA due to the Home Office messing up paperwork.

her wife is desperately trying to raise the funds to prevent this. they have 48 hours before she’s put on a plane and might never be able to return.

please, help if you can. they’re both terrified.

I'm totally fine with that! I already publish everything I post online as CC0, though you can attribute me if you want

Well, in the future, the load will be spread thanks to Federation, but I do agree that the main instance will probably still be relatively large. However, I am not taking into account the other revenue streams that they have.

This is just *one* of them. in ~4 days.

that and through Visionary he's gotten ~85K in funding which will be PLENTY to put work full-time into fluxer :)

but with all these new eyes on the project, I bet some will start contributing to the software to improve it, too

To be fair, it isn't maintained entirely by one person, I've seen other people around in the main community with roles indicating they're part of the team

they are, however, the majority contributor at the moment

delta.chat counts as email :]

point is PLEASE try to get people onto signal or delta.chat for your own sanity's sake

even if you get RCS/Google Messages working it may stop working 2 days later when google decides "fuck you actually"

you get the idea

it's bad

14.02.2026 22:44 πŸ‘ 1 πŸ” 0 πŸ’¬ 1 πŸ“Œ 0

basically doesn't exist. RCS is a joke because your choices are:

- google

...that is it. google messages. and it doesn't work on anything that doesn't have Google Services Framework and a buncha other shit and are locked and Play Integrity and-

I'll send an update when everything's back online again. I did not anticipate these many users so quickly, so thanks for your understanding <3
