Extraordinary Results for All
What do you all think about having a regular weekly event to package an important App as a group in a live session, maybe even live streamed, where anyone on the call can also contribute their small part, so one person doesn't have to slog through it all by themselves?
Others can watch and learn and ask questions & chit chat.
Any volunteers?
Rob here (robi is my Croatian nickname and often computer username) for those in other cultures, short for Robert.
As a Strategic Advisor and (Business & Innovation) Catalyst, I'm mostly a full stack janitor 
As a leader in several startups, I reserve a keen eye for emerging technologies (hi Cloudron and it's Apps); I have been a speaker, mentor, advisor for Google, NASA, IBM, and many more, finding safe, creative solutions all the way from the mundane to the complex with equal ease, which is one thing that keeps my passion ignited.
Remember WinAmp? Yeah, I was there during the mp3 revolution, in the credits until the recent reshuffle.
I've invented a bunch of stuff, including the first PCIe flash storage device in small form factor (SFF), now you'll recognize it as the M.2 PCIe SSD device for which there is now a slot on every motherboard being made. (didn't make a dime.)
Made core discoveries (read blunders) in physics (magnetism, light, water), mathematics, statistics, AI, ML, medicine, law, etc, which you can ask me about outside this thread.
3 decades ago I got bitten by the sysadmin bug and never left, despite all the C level gigs.
After 15 years, I am still on the board of directors for https://BayLISA.org which is one of the oldest meetups in Silicon Valley. We've had the Cloudron team speak at one of our meetups which should be online on YT.
I play a long running pickup soccer game every Saturday (same folks come out for 8+ years) and tennis 1-2 times a week if possible. Love ping pong and ultimate frisbee too.
If you want to see a small part of my other crazy projects, see https://venture.toldyouso.com
Otherwise a few here have found me on Twitter.
There's more, but that's plenty for now 
I was always hosting my own things since the first linux install back in the early 90s. When I came across Sandstorm I thought it was the bees knees, but it was far from pleasant to use with all the rough security and then the project shutdown! (for a while).
I actually called up the founder since I knew of him, and had a chat about it.. he was rearranging his life as he went to work for Cloudflare.
Shortly after I found Cloudron and haven't had to look back at anything else.
I even had @girish give a presentation on the mighty Cloudron at our meetup BayLISA. It was very impressive.
SO in some small way I am responsible for infecting a bunch of BayLISA members with the Cloudron bug and run 3 different Cloudrons myself spanning hundreds of domains now. Go Cloudron.
Porter is a Kubernetes powered PaaS that runs in your own cloud provider.
Repository: https://github.com/porter-dev/porter
Porter is an alternative to Heroku that spins up the underlying infrastructure in your own cloud provider. The complexity of the underlying infrastructure is abstracted away from you just like Heroku, but you can fully control the underlying infra when you need to (as your applications scale and "grow out" of the platform).
Our plans for PeerTube v4
April 13, 2021
In the PeerTube v3 release blogpost, we announced that we wouldn't resort to crowdfunding to finance PeerTube's development in 2021.
We are glad to announce that a big part of PeerTube v4 will be funded through an NLnet grant under their "Search and discovery" program (find here their page on PeerTube).
We plan to develop PeerTube's v4 all along 2021, with our main focus on customizing the experience so that instance administrators, content creators and users can display and discover the videos to their liking.
We truly believe that empowering instance administrators and content creators to customize their instances and channels is a great way forward to help PeerTube users to find and identify the videos they want to watch.
Such customization will have a direct impact on search, and on search results. Moreover we plan to extend the search scope to playlists so they can be displayed in search results. We also plan to improve search result pages with a more ubiquitous sorting/filter system and a better interface.
PeerTube's v4 main features
Here are the main "customization" features we plan to be working on:
Sorting/filter system on pages that list videos
Customize left menu for instances (through plugin API)
Customize homepage for instances (through a markup system)
Customize channels for content creators
Incentives to complete instance/channel attributes (i.e. descriptions, images, terms of service, etc.)
We also plan to work on frequently asked improvements such as:
Adding playlists to search scope (on PeerTube instance and Sepia Search)
Subscription to channels/accounts from an instance
Coordination with, support and contributions to external developments (clients, plugin, etc.)
More details on our plans can be found on the PeerTube Github page. Please note that these are the main features and developments. They can evolve due to circumstances, contributions, timings, etc. To be informed of any change, subscribe to PeerTube newsletter.
Managing expectations
This is already a lot, and we can't wait to implement those features!
That being said, we understand that lots of people have lots of expectations for PeerTube. But we won't uphold and develop them all, as we are not a tech giant, not even a startup.
Framasoft is a small French not for profit of 35 members, and has made the choice not to overgrow. We want to stay at 10 employees tops, even though we manage more than 80 different projects (OK, PeerTube is one the biggest ones, but it is still one of eighty projects).
We have only one developer dedicated to PeerTube (not even full time), helped by others in our team (design, administration, communication, etc.). Maintaining PeerTube means lots of different tasks (learn more about it here in our FAQ), and we don't want him (or anyone else, for that matter) to burn himself out to fulfill everyone's expectations.
So if our plans for 2021 and PeerTube's v4 don't match your priorities, that's completely OK, but we won't do more nor go faster. Remember that you are free to fork PeerTube to lead it in another direction, or to contribute by coding plugins and issues (get started on contributing here).
Thanks for the support
We really want to thank the PeerTube community for its work and support. We also want to thank NLnet for their grant that will fund the major part of our work on PeerTube this year, thus relieving us from having to organize a dedicated crowdfunding in 2021.
While most of our roadmap for PeerTube is covered by NLnet's donation, the rest will come from our own budget. Framasoft is funded by grassroots supporters who give us money for all our actions and projects.
If you want to support PeerTube, you can support Framasoft with a donation, but also by helping others to discover and learn more about PeerTube and our projects: sharing is caring!
What is Snikket?
Snikket is a messaging platform that is different to the mainstream messaging apps. Instead of entrusting your conversations and messages with proprietary servers “in the cloud” that analyze and sell your data, we like to do things a little differently.
Snikket lets you run your own service, that you control, on the system of your choice. For many people this is a cheap private server (VPS) or even a Raspberry Pi.
Instead of your messaging app connecting to hidden far-away servers managed and owned by a large corporation, your Snikket app will connect directly to your personal Snikket server.

As I run 50+ apps in my Cloudron, I often have to check on services during troubleshooting, and when loading the System Info (/#/system) page it displays the Services, BUT as soon as I want to click on one, the Disk Usage loads and pushes all the Services down a page. (Bait and scroll?! 
)
Always makes me wonder why Services doesn't have it's own tab to avoid this problem.
Please fix.
As a very happy birthday present, this came about synergistically, and now we have the worlds first Cloudron App running in a Sysbox container runtime from Nestybox.com 
Gratitude to this community and the Nestybox team.
This couldn't happen w/o @marcusquinn & @Rodny-Molina 
Marcus provided the Cloudron based development environment which made this super easy and convenient, and Rodny provided the integration muscle and Sysbox expertise.
Here is the first issue filed related to our work:
https://github.com/nestybox/sysbox/issues/151
Feel free to follow along or jump in.
That's all for now
@girish it's in the output as 'focal'
@dylightful look up other threads about quotas
perhaps come up with a sanitizer script that runs as part of the build process..
@girish Yes, it's also a file server for us.
This is a fairly serious issue, since file content is time stamped and sorted at the filesystem level.
Restoring a backup doesn't seem to restore the original timestamps from the time of backup. (tgz)
Performing a storage migration also does not preserve the timestamps for older content. (cp)
What parameters are being used for cp migration & tgz restore from backup ?
How do we make this work?
That also means that the Task resume for a failure like this is broken.
One could copy the rest of the files if the resume skipped existing files.
Ideally the copy would be more memory efficient and release memory after a threshold.
Otherwise one could set up a local socket and slurp it over. This would have the additional benefit of working across systems in Multi-Cloudron.
@thetomester13 nice you found the PR.
Did you see the comment that modified the CSS to grab the system preference?
@girish This reminds me of the old DOS days where copy vs xcopy was a big deal.
Is there an equivalent to xcopy in Linux?
Can dark mode be added please?
