Hey #bldrweb - per my previous messages[1], I'll be SHUTTING DOWN https://toot.bldrweb.org TOMORROW (originally planned for Tuesday but life's busy).
If you need to export any last backups, do so RIGHT NOW!
I'm going to make a last-ditch effort to upgrade to fix some of the redirect problems, but this could very well break some things.
**Important announcement for my toot.bldrweb.org users**
TLDR: #bldrweb will be shutting down on July 15th (three months from now).
Time has come to close the doors on bldrweb. I've enjoyed doing this, but I'd now like to turn my attention elsewhere. Happy to share more thoughts in the replies!
Per the covenant[1], I'm giving a 3 month notice to allow for switching to a new instance.
(continued)
Hey #bldrweb - I need to put together a mailing list of the active users of our instance so I can communicate about down times and future changes to the server.
Please DM or email me your preferred email address:
[email protected]
We also need to talk about financials and server funding. Here's the summary:
- Monthly expenses: ($50)
- Monthly contributions: $35
- 2024 deficit: ($320)
TL;DR need more contributors! Contributions page:

Hey friends, asking for some confirmation here if you’re outside of #bldrweb that our posts are visible and you can interact with them.
I’ve had a couple of interactions with mutuals on other instances but it does seem like “less” than before our server was down a couple days for maintenance.
Hey #mastoadmin - could someone confirm that folks from outside our instance can see and respond to our posts? I'm recovering from a server upgrade gone wrong, and want to check that everything is functional again. #fediadmin
