Don't know if these sorts of posts are allowed, but I just wanted to say I've just grown tired of Reddit's nonsense and it is lovely to find such a welcome alternative such as is Toast.000. Thank you for reading, and I look forward to getting into this community!

should be way faster now

enjoy 💜

Toast enjoyers were out here.

Hi grant, Thank you for running this nice instance. I have noticed that my following posts are apparently not getting sent to the remote instance where the target community https://feddit.org/c/mediatheque is hosted, at least they are not visible there. Would you mind checking? Thx.

Thanks for sticking through the migration, it took extra long this time 😅

The VM I'm running Lemmy in ran out of space so every image attachment is now being hosted in Wasabi so things might be a bit faster now :)

consider donating via Stripe or LiberaPay 💜

i'm going to be migrating uploads to object storage due to my storage filling up

downtime will start at 6am UTC and toast.ooo will be back at an unknown time after that

if you have $5 to spare every month, consider setting up a reoccurring donation to support toast.ooo and the other things i run :)

donations are accepted via liberapay at https://liberapay.com/sc07/donate liberapay accepts credit cards & paypal, whichever is easier for you

donating is completely optional, please do not feel pressured to donate

this has been setup for a while but it's just been one line on the sidebar of the site and i decided i should make a post about it :P

here's the update announcement

News Post

we've updated!

• 0.19.0 Changelog
• 0.19.1 Changelog

Edit (like 9hrs later): Posts can now properly be loaded inside Mastodon (turns out it was an nginx config error from the early days of lemmy)

New users will no longer have to fill out an application to join toast.ooo, only requiring a valid email address to verify

why?

i feel that it was a roadblock for new people to get into toast.ooo because of having to wait to be approved instead of being automated

clothing?

thinking of maybe getting the toast.ooo logo embroidered on various clothing items if anyone else is also interested in that lmk

that's it

we've updated

We got a brand new logo & banner for this instance!

Art was done by Rivers, you should go check them out!

I'm posting from the mobile app right now. I can't seem to login through the browser. Anyone else experiencing that?

Lemmy had an XSS exploit and while it was unpatched, we were offline to protect yall

The exploit was patched and now we're back

happy lemmy-ing

Go ahead and introduce yourself to the instance, tell everyone your hobby, or just say hi!
