[2/3] Mokum budget proposal for the next fundraiser (#5), August 2020 — August 20201: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1v7yuIIQR2MRUqbbtMbDA6jZgFpCeTUqEGhhKQBJAEJY/edit#gid=0 We need 2763 EUR for the next 12 months. There are no surprises in the budget. #mokum-budget
@haron has preliminary plans of upgrading some of the Hetzner servers, but we did not decide yet, so it's just going to be covered from the "unforeseen 30%" amount.

Welcome to our irregular "Did you know?" column. First, you can mention somebody, adding at-sign to their username: @alice. This also works for groups: @support. Also, this handles punctuation, as you can see, so you can freely add dots, commas, exclamation signs etc. Second, when you want to reply to somebody's comment, you can click on "comment cloud" icon and their name will be added to the beginning of the text area. You can then click more comment clouds, and their username will be added, too. This will be particularly useful when mentions will be implemented.
Will be really useful, thank you very much.
· hulusiacek@squadette: Is there any official list of auto URL expansions, either as part of Mokum or LinkHum docs? I'm trying to guess how to make a nice looking link to SCP. Thanks. UPD: Blimey, SCP turned out to be case-sensitive. :-) Still, a doc would be nice.

· aralik 5It's time again for our regular no-surprises Mokum financial report. We've raised €3,248.22 (€3,080.50 + €167.72); we've spent €2,639.17, €609.05 to go. We're spending about €175 per month, same as in the previous reporting period. 0.0077 BTC (still worth about €60 at the moment) was not used. I'm thinking about doing the next fundraising event on Mokum's five year anniversary, May 25. Thank you for your support! https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zLsOSCn7XCITBx_jS44I-yM78lHllNZnLAab-enpY-Y/edit#gid=0 #mokum-budget
As always, we thank you for your hospitality and are happy to support you. Also, FIVE YEARS!
· LibSkrat 5It's time for the Mokum financial report: less than half of total amount raised last time + left over from previous fundraising) was spent. We've raised €3,248.22 (€3,080.50 + €167.72), spent €1,584.05, €1,664.17 to go. We're spending about €175 per month, a bit less than in the previous reporting period. 0.0077 BTC (worth about €60 at the moment) was not used. So, the next fundraising event will happen around Mokum's five year anniversary in May 2020.

Dear friends, we've enabled donation page for the fourth fundraising in history of Mokum: https://mokum.place/about/donate PayPal and Bitcoin are accepted. We need to raise €2733 for the next twelve months. Thank you!
€500+ has already been donated, and a tiny amount in BTC (so we know that wallet works). Thank you!
· псы в рапидеEvening update: €2312.64 and 0.0077 BTC (~€25 at current rate). 85% complete in 24 hours. ~90 people have contributed. Thank you all!

· псы в рапиде 13Mokum budget update: we've spent all the euro part of last year's donations. We spend almost exactly €200 per month, averaged for the last 13 months (it did not change since the last report). 50% of Bitcoin donations (0.10615 BTC) was sold on October 20th which resulted in €582.98. This will be enough till the end of 2018. Then the rest of Bitcoin donations will be sold and this hopefully will be enough till 2038 or, in the more probable case, till March 2019. So, the next fundraising event will happen around February. Thank you for your support!

Dear friends, it is now possible to download everything you've posted to Mokum as a single Zip archive. Archive contains machine-readable JSON files in a simple format, containing entries from your feed, your private subfeed, direct messages, image attachments, list of faved posts and your text pages. https://mokum.place/takeout This archive could be used as your own backup copy; to create a version of your feed for offline reading; to allow migrating to a different platform or just leaving the service without losing your content.
TODO: archives of groups you're admin of [x]; file format description.

We need to raise €2734: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1nieElaBbBYwJMlMa2e9iX6BZ8ObTEmjRYOUZRQxRyGE/edit#gid=0 Nothing new, we have some vague ideas of moving to containers but it's not clear how it's going to affect cost anyway. The Paypal Button and BTC address will be announced a bit later. Comments welcome. Thank you, #mokum-budget
We are going to install several security updates and reboot Mokum servers, please expect two or three short downtimes during next 30 minutes.
Dear fellow users of Mokum. We are going to perform two security updates, please expect 5 minutes of downtime very soon.
We are going to reboot Mokum servers in order to apply security updates. Two short downtimes expected, 3-5 minutes each. Please remain calm.

· zero drama queen 2Exactly three years ago Mokum was opened for the public: /squadette/1. Thank you for your support.
Thank you! If I ever give Iain Baker that jar of homemade marmalade that I promised him for getting Facebook to reboot the FF servers that one time, then you are definitely next in line for homemade marmalade.
· Meg Vmeg 17For absolutely no reason at all Mokum suddenly has a privacy policy: https://mokum.place/about/privacy-policy. If you have any questions or suggestions please comment here or in @support. Thanks.
You forgot the obvious one: The content of any post or comment you make on the service, how long you keep backups of them, who you share that content with (link to instructions related to privacy controls, private subfeeds, etc.) You should also link to Google Analytics privacy policy in the appropriate section.
· April 3We need to do regular "did you know" reminders about Mokum features. The topic for today is "private subfeed". Please share/translate this link for your community if you think this could be useful. Even if you have a public account, you can have another sub-feed, which is always private. You can enable your private sub-feed on "Settings" page. You can post to your private sub-feed by clicking at "Private sub-feed" link in the right column (or at the bottom, if you're on a mobile device). You can request subscription to other people's private sub-feed if you know its URL.
You can invite users to your private sub-feed on your "Settings" page, see "Invite users to your private sub-feed" section. The user must be already subscribed to your primary account. You can see people subscribed to your private sub-feed at your "Subscribers" page. You can unsubscribe people from your private sub-feed there (and they will not get any notification about this). If you're subscribed to someone's private sub-feed, you can see who else is subscribed at the bottom of their "Subscribers" page.
· псы в рапидеgreat, thanx
· aralikIf you've had a private feed and wanted to move to having the main feed be public but the subfeed private, is there a way to designate old posts to be private or move them to the subfeed?
· Spidra Webster@spidra: You'd have to do 1 post at a time, but the option is under the "more" menu on every post. I would set up the private subfeed first, invite everyone that you want to allow access to it, then go through all your posts, moving any you want to keep hidden from public view, then when you make it all the way back to your first Mokum post, switch over your main feed to public.
· April 2@app103: Thanks. Too bad I'm such a prolific poster by mokum standards.

Can't upload photos from my phone, Chrome app crash when i try. Some others have same issue here https://mokum.place/alperkamu/2000856
it's a known problem with Chrome and Android, I've mentioned the same problem few weeks ago (https://mokum.place/support/1987304). As mentioned here https://productforums.google.com/forum/?noredirect=true#!topic/chrome/PYHUppJGT6E it has been acknowledged by Google and will be fixed asap
· Brixie 4@squadette: in my case it never crashed, but it doesn't work either (loading forever on the "Select Images" screen)
· BrixieGuys, we've just deployed some under-the-hood changes to make sure that Mokum stays available in Russia. You should see no effect :)
Друзья, мы несколько изменили конфигурацию Мокума, чтобы уменьшить наши шансы случайно оказаться заблокированными. Никаких изменений не должно быть видно, но если вы заметили, что что-то сломалось - пишите, пожалуйста!
· zero drama queenAhahaha. “Dear Customer, A part of your servers has already become unavailable from the Russian Federation due to Roscomnadzor (Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology, and Mass Media) blocking the network 23.108.208.0/20 which includes public interface networks of your Cloud servers.”
