I'm taking a bit of a social media break until after Labor Day. I'll still occasionally check my DMs on the various platforms that have DMs, and keep up with the basic admin stuff here at the #SnootBBQ. Otherwise I'll catch you all in September.
Don't burn the place down while I'm gone. Well, not this place. Some of the other ones can go.
I’m heading off to Egypt and London for the next four weeks. If you need to reach me, send a note to the pyramids. If I don’t get it when I’m in Egypt, I’ll pick it up in London after the British Museum steals it.
(Please don’t break the #SnootBBQ while I’m gone)
A jewelry company keeps trying to make a Mastodon account at the #SnootBBQ to spam here. This is why I don't just let the server be totally open to all new signups.
That said, if you have film and tv friends who are looking for a place to hang in the Fediverse, please feel free to encourage them to sign up here.
Thank you to everyone on the #SnootBBQ who has chipped in for the fundraising campaign already! In the first day since setting up the Patreon, we have commitments from our users to cover 25% of our monthly server costs. Not a bad start!
If you want to help support our community, here is the Patreon link: https://patreon.com/snootbbq
I have launched a Patreon for the #SnootBBQ Mastodon instance for film/tv folk!
All funds raised from this Patreon will go to funding the operating costs of the Snoot BBQ.
Don't worry, I'll be personally covering any of the costs that aren't covered by the Patreon, but I like the idea of this community being self-funding in the future.
