Hi Fediverse π
let me sum up the situation around #switchingsocial
Around September 20th, the original (anonymous) author of switching.social shut down its website and all related Social Media accounts, including mastodon π€
This info reached me (@tobias ) the next day via my German version @swisode .
As there hasn't been any sign of life since then, I restored the website and created this new account. Right now I'm out of spare time to work on it, but that'll change in a few weeks π
Hello Fediworld π
most of the #switchingsocial website is restored - have a look:
https://switching.software
(or https://swiso.org for short)
I want to thank @gemlog for preparing the web-archive version and @LuKaRo for extracting the missing pages from the Google Cache. Would have taken so much longer without you two π
Hi Fediverse π
it's @tobias here, broadcasting via this new fediverse account representing (formerly) #switchingsocial π
Please follow, dm and @ this account for everything related to the English version ... as @swisode wants to write German posts again π
It's been one week since the #shutdown. There hasn't been any news from the original author yet. So, I believe, it's on us to keep this project alive.
Please stay tuned as I'll ask for support here - after some more preparations. π»
