Nivenly finally announced that they're retroactively rejecting the #Haidra application. This finally closes a very stressful attempt of us trying to join an ethical org to help us navigate this sector as a new #FOSS project.

This whole endeavour has been severely demotivating for someone who put hundreds of hours developing FOSS. The reaction of the hachyderm community has been extremely toxic.
I'll write a post mortem soon.

We've made some decisions regarding Haidra and Pachli as Nivenly projects. First up, Haidra: https://nivenly.org/blog/2024/04/15/haidra-decision/Hachyderm.io

in reply to db0 • • •totally understand. That would have been amazing. It's so shitty that they "accepted" and then walked it back.
I'm sorry that happened, friend. Though, given their reaction, they weren't a good fit for partners😬I hope you can eventually find some good funding down the road. The project is awesome and you've done great work and I'm sure you will do great things in the future. Though, as you said, it's really unfortunate that you have to do it the hard way.😔
