01:43 -TechBytesBot/#techbytes-@podmin@joindiaspora.com: # Hello JoinDiaspora there is some unfortunate news to share. Feneas will be dissolved and as Joindiaspora is one of the services. JD will also be shut down on 1 March. This is unless we can find someone who wants to take over the service. If you think you can handle the task please contact us via [hq@feneas.org](mailto:hq@feneas.org). You can find the original post below or via https://git.fene ...

01:43 schestowitz; Please note this is a free and open-source project and also the server is maintained voluntary by humans .
01:43 schestowitz; In your next update, could you please specifically address:
01:43 schestowitz; Stop commanding people around. It has been already said - they will communicate when they have something to say. You dont have a payed contract with anybody here and neither anybody is obliged todo what you wish.
01:43 schestowitz; You get on peoples nerves which demotivates them to respond and to put their time on the thing. If you cant be silent, at least keep it short. People dont want to read loads of similar texts.
01:43 schestowitz; The hostility, overt and/or veiled, is getting old.
01:43 schestowitz; People in a shit pond making things worse for each other is the one thing that really rubs me wong. Various voices speaking of/for Diaspora* generally keep doing this. I really wish youd stop that.
01:43 schestowitz; Weve got a problem. Were trying to work toward a solution. Lets work with each other and not against one another.
01:43 schestowitz; Please make a first move and respect other people. Social communication 101 - dont overload people, respect others when they already ask you multiple times to cool down a bit.
01:43 schestowitz; Gonna say what nobody else wanted to say out loud yet:
01:43 schestowitz; Stop the spam please. Shut up. Thank you.

01:44 schestowitz; Okay, no, thats enough. @Doc Edward Morbius, we will not allow you to attack people who are following this thread for keeping up with information.
01:44 schestowitz; We have deleted a couple of comments, and we have blocked your account on both here and on the Sunset team account. If you have questions concerning YOUR OWN account and issues related to YOUR OWN account, there is an email address linked in the announcement from @The JoinDiaspora Sunset Team. Well answer questions regarding your account and your accounts data, but youre absolutely not welcome to use our threads to annoy the living hell out
01:44 schestowitz; of everyone.
01:44 schestowitz; This thread - and the other threads about the migrations - have been created to inform users about whats happening, and to allow people to ask questions and voice concerns. Your contributions so far have been suggestions to employ backup methods actively condemned by the team and that wont actually help people set up a new account, as well as continuously spreading simply wrong information.
01:44 schestowitz; For everyone else, sorry for the noise. If you have questions or concerns regarding this transition, feel free to post them here publicly, or send a private message to @The JoinDiaspora Sunset Team. We welcome public discussion and discourse, but we do not welcome creating noise.

11:55 schestowitz; I think quite the contrary has been true lately, with large companies going OUT OF THEIR WAY to FORCE people back into "the office".
11:55 schestowitz; We have about 33,000 articles in Techrights, but none which suggests companies actively try to FORCE people to work isolated at home.
11:55 schestowitz; A few articles about EPO highlighted the dangers associated with such conditions.
