#RIP botsin.space, and bot hosting on Glitch (thanks Fastly);

I discovered botwiki through a web search, after finding the tombstone on botsin.space. Thanks to @stefan for the blog posts there about all this, and the link to the detailed postmortem […]
Happy Friday! Just an occasional reminder that if you migrated your bot from the botsin.space server, please do reach out so that I can update the bot's Botwiki entry!

Hey #botmakers, if you migrated your bot from the botsin.space server, be sure to reach out to have your links updated on Botwiki!

Just realizing that the https://botsin.space domain has been memorialized just last week.

Missing the posts from quite a few of the #botsInSpace accounts that were never migrated by their owners, maybe I need to recreate some of them 🤔

I think this made for a pretty good final message from my bot to get in before #botsinspace entered read-only mode: botsin.space/@cooljeanius...
For folks who are still looking for a new server, here's a few options:

Might be useful if you'd like to download things posted by your favorite #BotsInSpace bots before the server shuts down.

The December 15 deadline for botsin.space going into a read-only mode is fast approaching. Does anyone need help moving their bots to a new server?

which uses GoToSocial under the hood. A small fee is required to help with longevity of the instance ko-fi.com/archdog/tiers [https://ko-fi.com/archdog/tiers]
I'll be working on more transparency around funds usage and infrastructure costs soon.

A day after I finished moving 50+ creative bots to my own server, things are looking pretty good!

And I'm done. Officially migrated from #BotsInSpace to my own server, all 50-something accounts.
Thanks for the memories, @colin!
And if anyone thought I spent hours migrating each individual account, don't be a fool!
I spent hours writing a script that does that […]
I've removed the membership caps on botsinbox.net [https://botsinbox.net] Memberships - I realised it might feel a bit like artificially limiting the availability, which wasn't the intention.

OK! Want to self-host your own bots now #BotsInSpace is going away?
I've made the *simplest* possible server just for you!
https://gitlab.com/edent/activity-bot/
Upload two files to your server (index.php and .htaccess), fill in a couple of details, and… that's it!
This is designed for […]
Sad to see #botsinspace go after all this time (announcement: muffinlabs.com/posts/2024/10/29/10-29-r... My non-infosec timeline will be much less vibrant without the many bots I had come to follow over the years. A shoutout to those robo-friends. May you live on, if only […]
Tiggi.es is open for #botsinspace folks who are interested in what our community is about. Current instance size is 1TB enterprise NVMe with room to grow.
And yes, you can migrate Mastodon accounts to GoToSocial! docs.gotosocial.org/en/latest/user_guide/mig... #botsinspace
Because #BotsInSpace is shutting down (😢) I'm looking for a new home for my bots.
I have an RSS feed which posts to BlueSky…
And I have Bridgy which converts BSky to Fediverse…
So… Welcome @openbenches.org !
(This is an experiment. Feedback welcome. I might try self-hosting. Not sure yet […]
Oh my gosh.
I just heard about the #botsinspace shutdown coming in December. (It'll stay read-only for a while, but still…)
That's sad. I follow a ton of bots running off of that instance. It really is a significant component of the character of my Mastodon feed. I hope many of them will be […]
If I don't migrate @checkweathersg@botsin.space to another server, I still have this "mirror" at least @checkweathersg@threads.net - "federated" but hashtags ain't working 🤷♂️

Farewell, emoji pollbot, my beloved. I'll never forget the way you faked me out in my notifications by making me think someone had interacted with one of my posts. 😔

Sad to hear about the impending shutdown of #BotsInSpace!
#HomesteadSocial would love to be the new home for any bots with the primary subject matter being relevant to #Homesteading, #Gardening, #Farming, #Permaculture, #OffGrid, #Sustainability, #SolarPunk, #ClimateCrisis, #Goats, #Chickens […]
Another Mastodon instance is retiring starting 15 December 2024.
botsin.space’s admin has announced that it will be shutdown in March 2025 at the earliest.

Where will all the bots go?
Will I have to follow them again?
Just how financially viable is hosting your own server in the long run?
Terrible news I blame on Capitalism!
