    This release is all about making exozyme a better community, in addition to a server and hosting site. After all, our awesome community is what differentiates us from other self-hosting sites and hosting providers!

    • Email notifications! #165: Yeah, I know getting a ton of emails is annoying, but we won't spam you, I promise. This will make participating in the exozyme community a lot easier, since you won't constantly have to check exogit and exochat. Instead you'll get email notifications. You can disable them in the app's web interface if you don't want email notifications.

    • Community events! #164: We'll probably be having some virtual community events in the near future. Stay tuned for more updates about this.

    • Discontinued the API #106 #147 #162: The API was great, but also a huge PITA to maintain and full of security holes. We had to pull the plug on this one, sorry.

    • The switch to NixOS continues #160: We now have a container to test out our brand-new nixos-config repository! Also, Woodpecker CI was merged into nixpkgs so we no longer have to package it ourselves. We are also working on getting our Nix packages upstreamed. (Disclaimer: The nixpkgs Woodpecker package wasn't made by us)

    • Rewritten website #159: Our website was rewritten once again (since it's small and simple enough to rewrite frequently 😃). It's now more focused on our community, instead of our services.

    • Better router firewall rules #158: We take security very seriously here, so we upped the security of our new router (since we just upgraded to fiber internet in v8.4).

    • We need more maintainers! #163: Being a maintainer is easy, don't be intimidated! Feel free to comment on that issue if you're interested. We need all the maintainence help we can get (or nice services like the API will get discontinued 🙁)

    Anyways, thanks for reading this, and check out our Matrix space if you haven't already! You can log in to your Matrix client with username @YOUREXOZYMEUSERNAME:exozy.me and your usual exozyme password.
