Hey all, I've begun the process of transitioning the management of pdx.social over to a group of folks. I've been running the site since 2017 and it feels like its time for some new energy.

The new team consists of @agnes@pdx.social who will be leading community engagement and moderation as well as @tedder@pdx.social & @hanse00@pdx.social who will be handling the technical side of things. Big shout out to them for stepping up to volunteer! ❤️

@freeformz@hachyderm.io @tedder@pdx.social

Monthly costs are
masto.host: $149
digital ocean: $64.30 (for pixelfed)
patreon brings in $172 right now

honestly I think the pixelfed server should be shut down.

Costs could definitely be cut by moving off of masto.host.

For other djangonauts out there: this is an excellent guide for migrating a production app to a custom User model BUT you need to deploy all the changes up to step 5 to all your deployments (prod, stage, etc). Then proceed with the guide and deploy again at the end of it.

@BalooUriza@social.tulsa.ok.us Yuck, looks like a subdomain takeover. I turned control of DNS over to the new @admins@pdx.social some time ago. They'll need to investigate.

@tedder@pdx.social Not sure how it will be announced. Follow @panic@social.panic.com just to be sure

@ashur@front-end.social I wish you could see my face right now

@mathowie@xoxo.zone absolute garbage that soph's first game back might be away

@tedder@pdx.social Nope! its currently scheduled for 8/3 at 10am

@chombo@herd.bovid.space Both really. A couple of people who can mind the tech side and a couple to moderate would be ideal.
