EvosHosting Discussion on LowEndTalk

Purchased two storage VPS from EvosHosting at a discounted rate, but the experience has been frustrating, with delays in provisioning, price increases, downtime, and lack of support. While they offer cheap deals, reliability and customer service leave much to be desired.
Unfortunately, experienced downtime with my VPS with EvosHosting today as well. It has been several months. No response from the customer support.

RTM Todoist Migration

A utility to help migrate tasks from RememberTheMilk (RTM) to Todoist.
I might have been halfway through there before I stumbled upon this repo. Good to know for reference, though.

I’m not even sure if it’s a good decision to stick with #RememberTheMilk. It’s an old system, with hardly any improvements introduced in the recent years. Just look at their forums, a lot of feature requests that remained open, for quite a number of years even. #RTM #Productivity

I filed a dispute on #PayPal, requesting a $10 refund due to my poor experience with the #SliceHosting VPS hosting company. More details here: deuts.org/∞

To my surprise, the refund was credited almost instantly to my PayPal balance.

Big thanks to LowEndBox for guiding me in the right direction: lowendbox.com/∞

Claude (Anthropic) API support for OpenWebUI

I often use Claude from Anthropic for some use cases, as it has some advantages. But I’d love to do it in Open WebUI so I can keep all my chat records in one place.

I’d like to propose support for the Anthropic API in the same way that OpenAI API is supported.

I echo this sentiment. I hope the developers of OpenWebUI would consider adding it in the connections.

I have to block a few spam accounts here already on #Bluesky. Some are even crypto scammers.

Fediwall

Social media wall for the Fediverse.
We need to learn how to selfhost this thing, so we don’t have to rely on third-party services.

@mistersql Honestly, this is the first time I heard about Claude AI. Thanks for the tip, though. I sure will check it out!

#Python is truly incredible! While I’m not a programmer, #ChatGPT has empowered me to run scripts using various API endpoints—things I never thought were possible before.

Matt Mullenweg deactivates WordPress contributor accounts over alleged fork plans

Matt Mullenweg, CEO of Automattic, deactivated the accounts of several WordPress.org community members, including Joost de Valk and Karim Marucchi, amid ongoing tensions over WordPress governance. This followed public criticism of WP Engine and discussions on creating federated repositories, though de Valk and Marucchi denied plans to fork WordPress. Mullenweg’s actions were seen as targeting those questioning WordPress’s leadership, but the code remains accessible for forking via GitHub.
The WordPress saga continues!
