  1. First Mastodon 4.6.x to 4.7.0 upgrade performed, and everything was perfectly fine.
    I'll just wait to be sure the other themes will be compatible (like the great BirdUI by @rolle ) and I'll make a plan to upgrade the BSD Cafe instances.

    #Mastodon #BSDCafe

  2. Well, I updated to #Mastodon 4.6.x just a few days ago and 4.7.0 is out 😆

    I'll perform some tests and will upgrade to it in the coming weeks.

  3. The sad, yet fascinating thing about our job is that when done right, nobody notices.

    Have a great start to the week, #BSDCafe!
    Have a great start to the week, #illumosCafe!
    Have a great start to the week, #Fediverse!

    Do you refer to #bsdcafe ?
    Do I need to call for you the official #BaristaForever ?

    Anyway for individual use you might look at:

    #snac: codeberg.org/grunfink/snac2
    #honk: humungus.tedunangst.com/r/honk (it seems unavailable)
    #littlefedi: littlefedi.org

    For what I know many people run this little server on little board, from home using #IPv6 with a custom domain. Don't ask for more... 🙏

  5. There are days when the main goal is just to make it to the evening without falling apart... today is one of those days 😄

    Have a great day, #BSDCafe!
    Have a great day, #illumosCafe!
    Have a great day, #Fediverse!

  6. EDIT: done 😉

    I think it's probably time to upgrade the #BSDCafe #Mastodon server to v4.6.x...

    I'll try to do it as soon as I'll have some time.

  7. EDIT: it's back

    The #BSDCafe #DeltaChat relay is currently offline because of an Hetzner node failure: "We are currently experiencing a fault on our cloud leaf hel1-cloud1-leaf9. Our technicians are working hard on analyzing the cause of the interruption in order to solve the issue. Please bear with us. As soon as more information is available, we shall inform you via this website. We apologize for any inconvenience. Thank you for your understanding."

  8. Today is a special day! It is the BSD Cafe's birthday!

    Exactly three years ago today, I was rather timidly announcing this project to the world. It was an idea that had already been in my mind for some time, but had not yet become reality.

    Three years later, I am proud to say that the BSD Cafe is sailing at full speed towards the uncertain horizons of the modern world.

    We are here to talk about BSD, Open Source, projects, conferences, freedom, pizza and tiramisu, but above all about passions, interests, discoveries and knowledge. We are here among friends who share interests and passions, without geography or borders, apart from those defined by mutual respect.

    Your Barista is more energised than ever.

    During the past year, he had to retire one of the services, BlendIT, our Lemmy instance, but he also added several new ones: Journal, based on WordPress, Billboard, running on NodeBB, the Delta Chat relay, and more.

    He also had to withdraw from BSDCan, with enormous regret, but he is now ready for EuroBSDCon. And for other new things that will gradually follow.

    For example, here is a small preview: I have been experimenting with MeshCore.

    My dream? One or more BSD Cafe services that do not use the Internet at all. I already have a few ideas, so I shall not disclose anything more for now 😉

    And I will never grow tired of repeating that the BSD Cafe is a success because of you.

    I am just the Barista, but a place like this is nothing without the friends sitting at the bar. And the friends of this bar are wonderful people who, every day, help make my days calmer, happier and more interesting.

    So thank you for these three years, and thank you for being here.

    We shall continue sailing together towards the future, with smiles on our faces and passion in our hearts.

  9. The BSD (and illumos) cafe Mastodon instances are still at 4.5.x - which is supported.

    I'm planning to upgrade to 4.6.x as soon as I'll have enough time. It should be quite easy, but I want to proceed when I have enough time.

    This means I cannot provide a specific deadline, yet. But I'll try to do it ASAP.

  10. Monday Monday...

    Last night there was a blackout for over an hour. The local substation overloaded because everyone in the area had their AC running on full blast. And this week they say they're coming to finish the FTTH installation.

    My wife bets that the appointment will fall through this time too.
    We'll see!

    Have a great week, #BSDCafe
    Have a great week, #illumosCafe
    Have a great week, #Fediverse

  11. The #BSDCafe #Mastodon instances have been upgraded to v4.5.12

    An upgrade to v4.6.x will be performed in the coming weeks.

  12. Today, the President of the Italian Republic, in a public speech, said that one of the main problems of AI is its impact and the concentration of overwhelming power it generates in the hands of a few.

    He’s not a tech guy, but even he is pro-OwnYourData. We should invite him to the BSD Cafe.
