Hey, #hachyderm --
We totally forgot to publish the availability of the `hachyderm.general` #ansible collection we announced at #fosdem a few weeks ago!
We started by publishing our #postgresql roles that we use to keep the Hachyderm database servers happy and healthy. Included are modules to:
- build postgresql servers in both primary and replica configurations
- configure pgbackrest for full and incremental backups
- publish metrics for consumption by prometheus
Modules are available on Ansible Galaxy at https://galaxy.ansible.com/ui/repo/published/hachyderm/general/.
Happy Hachyderming (and Ansible-ing and postgresql-ing)!
At #FOSDEM’s Funding the FOSS Ecosystem devroom, Gabriele Columbro and Abel Samot discussed how enterprise and VC funding can strengthen open source in Europe.
With ~$7.7B in annual enterprise contributions, commercial open source is a major opportunity.

I finally got the chance to watch Evan’s (@evanprodromou ) talk¹ on tags.pub from #FOSDEM.
There is no denying that the Fediverse needs something like this, but I don’t understand how tags.pub is substantially different from #FediBuzz Relay², which already exists.

After visiting Brussels for #FOSDEM followed by a trip to London last weekend, it was very nice spending this weekend not going anywhere catching up on various home jobs.
In other words - I'm moving over to that setup on my OpenWRT One today after seeing it in action at #FOSDEM !
Thank you again, @_elena and @sturmsucht
You two made #FOSDEM better because of your work!
