🚨 Let’s Encrypt at risk from Trump cuts to OTF: “Let’s Encrypt received around $800,000 in funding from the OTF”

Dear @EUCommission, get your heads out of your arses and let’s find @letsencrypt €1M/year (a rounding error in EU finances) and have them move to the EU.

If Let’s Encrypt is fucked, the web is fucked, and the Small Web is fucked too. So how about we don’t let that happen, yeah?

(In the meanwhile, if the Let’s Encrypt folks want to make a point about how essential they are, it might be an idea to refuse certificates to republican politicians. See how they like their donation systems breaking in real time…)

Wenn Let’s Encrypt plötzlich nicht mehr klappt, wird das halbe Internet aus Zertifikatsfehlern bestehen. https://www.heise.de/news/Nach-Trump-Dekret-Kampf-um-US-Foerdermittel-fuer-Tor-F-Droid-und-Let-s-Encrypt-10328226.html

May I just say so myself that I‘m loving playing with Kitten¹ to build Domain² (shown below) and Place³.

New Kitten update

• Kitten’s settings are now at /🐱/settings/ instead of /💕/settings/

(The 🐱 namespace is reserved for Kitten’s own routes while the 💕 namespace is reserved for Small Web Protocol routes. The settings section was in the wrong namespace previously.)

Emoji problem? I don’t have an emoji problem, you have an emoji problem.

:kitten:💕

I think we should start referring to the output of industrial React toolchains as "ultraprocessed HTML".
