Crowd funding Free Software powered, community run, federated social media host poddery.com

Folks, we have been running poddery.com for last 6 years, started as a diaspora pod, with xmpp and matrix added later, all using the same username and password. When a lot of computing moved to "cloud", we have to step up our game to have Free Software based services and collective control. Since social media has network effect (you have to use the services used by your friends), it is much harder to get people to switch, though technically it is much simpler compared to GNU/Linux installation in the early days. It is fully funded and managed by the Free Software Community of India. I'm part of the team that runs this service. Now we need your help to make our third crowd funding campaign successful. Contribute and share the campaign. https://fund.poddery.com/
