hey cuties, i'm looking for some financial support (from folks who can afford it) to help me look presentable for ATmosphereConf and to help with in-person interviews.
i'm at the end of my financial runway, desperately need stable work, and need to put my best foot forward while job hunting.
you can use an invite code on any account

it's working!
Smaller invite batch going out, plus a reminder to all folks who have invites and haven't used them yet!
Apologies for the slowdown on invite pacing, the team has been busy preparing for ATmosphereConf, as well as on-boarding to a local co-op accelerator!
Thanks for your patience! 🙏✨

we just included it in our newsletter, so... while it's still not properly staffed and operational, we do expect more folks to at least know it exists now.
finding good help with time to moderate is tough! we'll get there though. working on it 💪
In our latest newsletter, we discuss our plans for Northsky Phase 2, including IndieApp, Stratos private data, and scaling our moderation efforts: northskysocial.com/posts/beginn...
ok hmu for another code when u do
grats! i saw you made a new acct. if you ever decide you want to move your main, let me know and i can get you another code.
Another batch of invites sent out! Only ~100 this time.
We're onboarding some new folks who will help speed things up eventually, but training and onboarding takes time in the short term.
Thanks for your patience! 💚💜

We've made our migrator service code repository public so other communities that would like an entry point to their PDS and backend-powered PDS migrations can fork and host their own!
We're not building alone, we're building together 💚💪💜
Yep: @roomy.space
All public / discoverable right now tho
we do batches every week
If you're part of a LGBTQ discord that is afraid of community collapsing due to this,
please tell them about Northsky. We are building something durable for queer people, based in Canada, and we will have private data and an app soon™️
They can start by signing up here: northskysocial.com/join
and be prepared if they don't
yes, and start preparing for backups if it doesn't work
my appeal to queer folks: bsky.app/profile/lucc...
It's not an all-in-one app, it's an ecosystem that is growing more diverse in its offerings week after week for the last couple of years.
This is where I've chosen to put my trust and effort and elbow-grease. The corporations and gov't can't so easily take this from us.
(and Northsky is in Canada)
