For all of you Mastodon and Pixelfed experts out there; is it feasible to run a Mastondon instance, and/or Pixelfed instance at home and/or office? 🤔
I.e. it would not be reachable from the outside, but only push updates "upwards" and poll/fetch updates from "upstream"?
(Not sure I'd do this yet anyway, considering the fact that you still don't have "movable" accounts, last I checked, and I don't really feel like "re-locating" my Mastodon account.)

Someone asked during Café Guix whether we could use Hoot to run bits of Guix such as importers in the browser, which would nicely complement Guix Packager.
I suppose we’re still far from it because of C bindings these modules depend on, such as Guile-Gcrypt and POSIX sockets (for the HTTP client). But maybe someday these interfaces could be implemented in JS/wasm to allow for seamless integration?
#Guix Packager 📦 supports a couple more languages and build systems as of… today!

Kudos to Philippe Virouleau for the good hack.
I have been gaming since 1992 and building PCs since 2003. I enjoy Linux, supporting FOSS projects and am a tinfoil hat connoisseur.
Many FOSS projects rely on donations. If you have money to spare but don't know which to donate to take a look at the above links on Ko-fi, Github, and Open Collective. Anything on there that I have sponsered or contributed to is something I have found to be worthy.
