Any FOSS platform has capacity issues. I run my own FOSS projects with zero grant funds and where I’m the only developer. I understand this issue.

What we’re talking about here is prioritization. My point is that you should not prioritize “new features” when existing features are a legal, moral, and grave financial risk to your community. And this isn’t just “my priority” – it’s clearly been shown that this is the desired priority of your community.

Please prioritize your GDPR issues.

Unfortunately, the Lemmy devs literally said it would take years to fix this issue. If you think this should be a priority for them, please advocate for them to prioritize it on GitHub:

Yes, it’s clearly disclosed in my profile that I am the founder of the BusKill project.

This is a PSA that our sale has started. I’ve had inquiries from members of our community asking about Black Friday sales.

10% off is barely any discount anyway.

Sorry, we’re a very small open-source shop. I’ve paid myself nothing so-far. The price just barely breaks-even for the business.

All of this is explained in-detail in “The Finances” section here.

Prices would drop dramatically if we could do production runs (and actually sell) >10,000 units at a time. Currently we only sell a few cables per month. If you want to help, please tell all your security-conscious friends about BusKill :)

Hi, this is not spam but a useful PSA that’s full of information, not just about the sale.

BusKill is useful for many groups, including human rights defenders, activists, journalists, whistleblowers, etc. You can read more about the use-cases of our community at our documentation here:

Yes, BusKill works with any USB drive.

In fact, the BusKill cable is just a USB Drive. The only thing “fancy” that it has is a magnetic coupler in the middle of the 1-meter cable so that it will breakaway at any angle. But, if you’d like, you can build your own. The instructions are here:
