    @michaelpope yes, I've seen some people being concerned about it. But it's either you are a very large deployment, or people with small but very special deployments.

    For the typical cloudron use case this should not matter.

    Ps: i have not watched the video

    Epik.com has been the go-to for me

    How did you configure the Cloudron with Epik during the initial setup?

    @jdaviescoates A platform to consider is SendFox. They offer a pay-once option for $US49 that would handle 5,000 subscribers. I can't vouch for deliverability, but I have referred several clients to this platform without any negative feedback. Another option is Mailerlite. Again, I have no firsthand knowledge about deliverability but clients are using this with no complaints.

    That being said, ListMonk looks like an interesting platform that we are evaluating to provide email list subscription services (using Cloudron) to our clients rather than referring them to these external solutions.

    Since your client is paying in Canadian dollars, I would suggest that they confirm with any of these solution providers that their platforms comply with any Canadian spam and privacy regulations.

    Lastly, it can be difficult to migrate from one provider to another. The new provider can get prickly about "opt-in" requirements and whether a CSV list exported from Constant Contact (assuming this is possible) meets those requirements. Better to know what is and what is not permissible before leaving Constant Contact.

    @Neiluj said in Web dev - How would you go at it today?:

    breaking things into "ingestible" bits / smaller actionable parts

    You know, I tried this exactly ... with ChatGPT! I've managed to get one app idea into a visual, working, state. I gave the command, and because I said the app has to be cross-platform, ChatGPT opted to give a bunch of code in Flutter. I then decided to install all the required software (flutter, android studio, etc.) to see if the code actually worked, and it did. From that initial command, I then iterated on it and asked, "with the code you just gave me, add this functionality" a few times and wow. I'm currently stuck on getting it to provide me with code to plug into a db backend, but it's progress.

    Sure, did you see this? https://www.ssdnodes.com/contact/

    I've been working across 12 time zones, and always got help when I needed it (but like I said, it was just the Dashboard-based ticket system I used, I've never had something so screwed up I had to call someone!)

    More interesting is the router you have at home and what traffic you're able to block etc. More advanced routers allow to block traffic based on IP lists etc.

    I've only ever moved once my existing setup runs out of space or I've added more apps and need more RAM/ CPU.

    @LoudLemur said in FOSDEM 2024 - Save the date: 3 & 4 February 2024:

    I wonder what ticketing system they use for the event

    It says: "You don't need to register. Just turn up and join in!"

    But in the past for other big similar conferences I've seen people make use of Pretix.

    Although I also like this really simple Gath.io app too
