CCE's community postoffice is currently looking for collaboration on Jmail, a JSON based e-mail service. Currently a debian based, working transport mechanism is available, the front-end (also as a CLI) is next. If any javascript developers are interested, please DM me. It is also available as a small virtualbox VM.

This year at @fosdem, I'm giving a speech about videogames, translations and language barriers.
More specifically, I'll talk about how translations in @Luanti work and how my Luanti server @aes benefits from it: how, thanks to @Codeberg staff, our translation pipeline spiked once we migrated to @weblate and how we now feature 14 different languages. See you there!
