I got a basic management API built for #Henhouse to be able to programmatically manage profiles, teams, and gather site disk usage information so an external billing system can be built to use this information. #StaticHosting #TechCoop

Our friends are launching a new #marketplace for #cooperatives! Get early access at solidarityecono.my

Woot! #AtmosphereConf

#henhouse needs $5k to register as a legal co-op, lease servers, and finish the customer portal. It's a small ask by design. We know how to stretch a dollar, and every dollar is publicly tracked at opencollective.com/henhouse. Get involved! #degoogle

The latest episode of the #Limeleaf podcast has dropped! We talked small tech with @coreysnipes.com . Put it in your ears at limeleaf.coop/podcast/epis..., subscribe to the feed at limeleaf.coop/podcast/rss...., or search for it in your favorite #podcast app.

We're building #HenhouseWebHosting in public and welcome contributions! If you want to help with coding and testing, or with reviewing our draft legal agreements, post in the comments. We will also take money at opencollective.com/henhouse/ 🙂 #buildinpublic

Shout out to @extremely.website, our most recent henhouse.coop member-owner! Want to be a legend like him? Head on over to opencollective.com/dashboard/he...

Almost every web hosting provider relies on Amazon, Google, or Microsoft infrastructure. We're creating Henhouse to operate on independent servers owned by small businesses and co-ops. And we made Henhouse a co-op, too! Learn more and contribute at opencollective.com/henhouse #noBigTech

Very early stages, but at least we have the domain and marketing site up. henhouse.coop #Henhouse #StaticHosting #TechCoop

Automatic TLS cert provisioning are working via @letsencrypt.bsky.social using Go's `autocert` pkg (pkg.go.dev/golang.org/x...) so folks that sign up to use #Henhouse can have certificates for their own custom domains. #Henhouse #TLS #LetsEncrypt #ACME #GoLang #BuildInPublic

Using the Popover API to avoid any JavaScript is pretty neat. #Henhouse #NoJS #NoJavaScript #StaticHosting #SelfHost

I got our (@limeleaf.coop) static site hosting app to provision TLS certs directly without the use of anything else (Caddy, nginx, etc.). It's complete with a web dashboard to manage custom domains, permissions, upload tokens, etc. as a single distributable binary. #StaticHosting #SelfHost

We're planning to launch Henhouse, a cooperatively owned, democratically managed cloud service for values-driven organizations. First up is web hosting, future services TBD by member convo & vote. Interested? Complete our survey: nc.limeleaf.coop/apps/forms/s... #coops #bigtech #DigitalAutonomy

The Limeleaf Worker Collective's Big Tech divestment is...complete! To learn how we took ownership of our data (and you can, too), read our blog post at limeleaf.coop/blog/how-lim...

Update! As of today, limeleaf.coop email is going to Fastmail. limeleaf.net will stay in Gmail for now but we'll move it over when we cancel our Workspace subscription. All of our Google Drive folders have been migrated to Nextcloud. Look for more details and advice for others in a blog post soon!

We are replacing our Big Tech apps with as many self-hosted, open-source alternatives as possible. 👇 🧵

Over the past decade, the number of worker-owned #coops has more than tripled. Most owners are women; nearly half are people of color. They prioritize keeping employees during economic slumps. The highest earners make ~1.5x more than the lowest (typical US CEO earns 344x). (source: @usworker.coop)

We're entering the final week of our apply.coop Beta. Job seekers can browse & search dozens of jobs (many remote) at values-driven workplaces around the world. Workplaces can post an unlimited number of jobs for free! #Coops #Nonprofits #Jobs

I spent all day on apply.coop converting all references from "co-op" to "workplaces" so that we can designate a type of "co-op" or "nonprofit" to each place. This will not land until next Tuesday because everyone at @limeleaf.coop is not working until then. #Coops #Nonprofits #Jobs
