You know, Oregon State University, I know that you appreciate my donation towards #OSUOSL, but y'all don't have to send me 4 of the exact same thank you cards.

Just saying...

Yesterday the #postmarketos gitlab instance unfortunately experienced some data loss from an infra problem. It's easy to blame the people handling the infra, but let me say that I'm super grateful that we have the #OSUOSL around and don't have to go it alone.

Without @ramereth and his team of students, we would be spending many hours attempting to manage this critical infra on our own instead of focusing on our mission.

@ramereth and #OSUOSL are truly amazing! Thank you for all you do! ❤️

@osuosl And still: there is no transparency on the homepage available abput the amount of donations.

It's so shady - I really don't understand how they can rise money as an "open source lab" without being transparent about the donations.

Huge congrats to @ramereth and the team for securing their necessary funding.

If you or your organization were still considering supporting #OSUOSL, don't let this good news stop you. Help it thrive, not just survive!

Thank you very much #OSUOSL for your important work so far. But sorry to say, imo the best would be to move the services to outside the USA. USA is not a reliable region anymore for hosting free and opensource services.
