What's cooking on Sourcehut? June 2021
Halfway through 2021! Things are on-track for my hopes to have the beta ship this year. Joining us on the way are 23,228 users, of which 640 are new this month. Remember to be patient with them as they learn the ins and outs of using sr.ht!
This month’s Mumble meeting will take place on the normal date tomorrow, June 16th, at 16:00 UTC. We’ll be on voice.mnus.de, port 64738, in the sourcehut room.
I have overhauled the registration workflow in preparation for the future billing changes for the beta, more clearly distinguishing between the “contributor” approach and the “maintainer” approach — only the latter ultimately being expected to pay for their account. I’ve also made some improvements for admins of third-party instances to make it easier to provide billing support following the changes to builds.sr.ht payment.
Mandatory payment is now in effect for all builds.sr.ht usage, for all users. If you require financial assistance, please email me explaining your circumstances and you will be issued free service credits.
