@thomasfuchs I hear ya. I remember we replaced the IIGS around ~2000, with it's whole 9 GB HDD. "It'll last forever."
Oh my data.

I know this post may date more than a fair few of us, but what was your first computer? (This includes family computers, for those to whom this applies.)
Mine was an Apple IIGS that was bought before I was born. Was reminded of that sweet old school look-and-feel by an account that's tinkering with one on oldbytes.space .
The person I cherished more than any other, @nova , died unexpectedly late Wednesday in a climbing accident.
I have no words, only despair. The light in my soul is gone.
Joe Beda @jbeda and Nivenly are posting announcements. Others will also.
It is so weird to be in your 30s and still be staring at sentences to figure out if the conjunction you want is "and" or "but".
You would think this would be straightforward, and/but it happens all the time.

Reminder: our call for volunteers is open this month! We'll be following up with people in January 2023. The call includes:
- Moderators: includes both user reports, handling GitHub issues ("customer support"-esque), and docs / Technical Writing
- Infrastructure: running and maintaining the servers and systems that keep Hachyderm alive :)
We set up a URL to redirect to the Typeform so it's easier to remember:
Hachydermians: if you would like to volunteer to join our Mods or Infra teams, please fill out this form. We'll start responding in a couple of weeks so that the form has time to populate and be shared

@nova same-same :blobfoxheadphones:
@nova @arjay Chiming in here as well: one of the things that impacts our decisions is how many volunteers are available. It won't help users, for example, if we don't have enough people on hand to answer questions / resolve issues, even if/when we open it up. (Note: ... we do have the Call for Volunteers form open, haha, for scaling in general and not specifically for this).
Reason: we uh maxed the free tier already :)
We're actually tracking volunteer requests on this link here:

It should be added to the blog post shortly :)
