#APconf Shouldn't we livestream our conversation on #OwnCast instead? ๐
2. Who or what is this not for?
Owncast is not for video conferencing or any use case where multiple people are wanting to see video of each other. Itโs also not a good choice if you have tight real-time requirements as HLS video has inherent delays.
#BBB is a good choice and is #4opens yes we do have to do manual posting of #AP not a big issue. Maybe we can ask #FOSShost Agen?

Open source software host Fosshost shutting down as CEO unreachable
UK-based non-profit Fosshost has been providing services to several high profile open source projects like #GNOME, #Armbian, #Debian and Free Software Foundation Europe (#FSFE) completely free of charge. But that will soon change as the project reaches end of life.

Looks like the website will remain up! Alder IT (https://alderit.com/) has graciously stepped in now that #Fosshost is no more and has agreed to host our website. We really appreciate all the recommendations everyone provided.

Another alternative that has existed for a while :)

Welp
This guy sounds pretty sketch, at best
That may be being charitable
"Thomas Markey -- Fosshost Founder -- January 2021"
"How did you first discover FOSS?
I was about 15 years old when I was taught Linux by a chap in Australia. He was the one who piqued my interest.
What difficulties and limitations do you see with FOSS?
Lack of compliance and governance.
How can they be solved?
Watch this space!"

Unfortunate news ๐
"Open source software host Fosshost shutting down as CEO unreachable"
"On the bright side, former Fosshost volunteers and free software enthusiasts have begun building alternatives with The Radix Project"
Oh shit? #FossHost shutting down? https://www.bleepingcomputer.com/news/technology/open-source-software-host-fosshost-shutting-down-as-ceo-unreachable/
We are temporarily moving the website back to Netlify since #Fosshost is shutting down. It may be intermittently available until DNS propagates and a new TLS certificate is provisioned. We know some of you had issues due to IP blocks on some of their shared IPs in the past, and will try to move it somewhere with a dedicated IP again as soon as possible. We are already talking to a few people, and if you know of anyone who would be interested in sponsoring a small VPS, we'd love to chat!
@coopcloud you've probably got a handle on the co-op hosting options out there better than we do; now that #Fosshost is shutting down are you aware of any cooperative alternatives, maybe running your stack (but really anything will do)? Paid or free, we're trying to raise funds now for an alternative.
