I have moved the end date of diasp.org from May 4th to April 1st given that we are down to about 12 user logins a day (several are bots) and if I keep the server going I will have to pay for an additional quarter for the server. Looks like most folks have found new home already anyways!

Are there servers that evolve their code?


That is one of the man issues. There has been little serious work on the code in the past decade. That goes for all the pods which all run the same software. The bugs are accumulating and not getting fixed. One of the worst outstanding ones is that you can find yourself essentially blocked from interacting with other accounts who have not blocked you. As these accumulate you get more and more accounts seeing this.

There certainly is a demand for better social networking right now as people flee "X" and FB. #Bluesky is adding 1.5M new users a week right now.

i would open a big friendica the same wy the diasp ad paying option if only i had the resources for the mass
I signed up for a diaspora server on a different computer and already forgot which one! 😁 I'll see it when I get back on the laptop. But I doubt I will do much on a system that doesn't evolve or fix bugs. Thaks to those who ran and financed this one, it was a nice thing to do.
Thank you @David and best wishes!!
Thanks for all your efforts, @David. I'm going to miss this place.
I can be found as Rod Mesa @roddio.bsky.social, as well as on @Motorod on Mastodon.
If anyone is interested, I'm at https://bsky.app/profile/randulo.com and randulo on mastodon.social where I've been for almost 8 years.
@David Will you still be on Diaspora after this?
Wish you every happiness @David
I'll follow you from Friendica. More for the alpacas than the cats.

of course

it's a perfect profil name for you.

Thank you @David for all your hard work. It was much appreciated.

I reconnected to this social network after 14 years. I am so thankful for the work you and your team put into this.

I tried so hard to find and reconnect to my diaspora* account after Meta announced the end of fact checking. You guys are the original pioneers.

I just started using Mastodon, as it was one of the listed social networks listed on the diaspora project page.

I'm very sorry this social network will end but extremely grateful for the movement that you have started with decentralization and not selling user's data.

✌️❤️

LOL, we never had fact checking here!
We do have many hamsters, however.
Not true, the alpacas have a tablet and sit out in the pasture and check facts all day long! They just have big hoofs and suck at trying to type anything in.
Below is my Mastodon handle.
@Joseph_C@mastodon.social
Ladies and gentlemen may find me there when diaspora* goes offline. Thank you for keeping this project online for many years. Sincerely ✌️♥️

Those of you who've got Bluesky accounts, but still want to keep in contact with the Fediverse: Consider using the "Bridgy Fed"
