#Blender gets all their videos blocked worldwide by #YouTube. #Armory3D has their #Patreon page closed down and their backers refunded without any notice as to why. All the #FOSS projects hosted by #GitHub now have their hosting at the mercy of #Microsoft.
And this is just a few of the recent examples.
When is the #FOSS community going to learn that we need to create and run our own infrastructure as well as apps?
Support #decentralised #FOSS infrastructure! (eg #PeerTube, #tilt, #Gitea etc)
@Blort @marsxyz Open Collective is also totally FLOSS and the dev's told me anyone is welcome to host their own but the code hasn't quite been set up for other people yet. But that their whole project is 100% open source. They also said they would be totally down for ActivityPub support but that they don't have the resources to implement it themselves but if someone else had the energy to do so they wold be on board!
@marsxyz It's a #selfhosted crowdfunding page solution similar to a #Kickstarter page. Sadly it doesn't use #activitypub or anything fancy like that for comments etc, but I added it as an example of a self hosted alternative to the #crowdfunding portals. #Liberapay may be more equivalent to #Patreon, but I don't think (?...) you can host that yourself.
