Fossery Tech :debian: :gnome: on Nostr: Creating cheatsheets myself is even more time consuming, it takes away time from ...

Creating cheatsheets myself is even more time consuming, it takes away time from other stuff (e.g. writing articles about various topics, which I also promised earlier).

So yeah, overall, the project isn't really sustainable in the long run, plus I promised too many things, much more than what I'm actually able to do. I changed my mind, and I won't accept any cheatsheet, article submissions, plus I won't make any more cheatsheets either. As for articles, I'll continue doing those, and making them available on FosseryWeb (except I won't create a "HTML/CSS tips and tricks" category, I'll only write about Linux, FOSS, digital freedom topics as usual). The things which are already available on the beta branch (Java cheatsheets, option to switch between original and Min site), plus some of the already scheduled things (Privacy Policy, RSS feed for articles, guide to use the site offline) will still make it into the last big update, along with the code refactorings and updated browser compatibility info. After the update, I'll also extend the new page-builders tool to generate article pages, to make uploading my articles to the site(s) more convenient.

Now, despite continuing only the writing of articles, I still can't really guarantee that I'll have much more time for those, as I have a few other things too which I want to do, e.g. changing my system setup, Debian to Devuan, GNOME to a tiling WM, it would probably take quite a lot of time to set up everything how I want, during that time, I probably won't do much "content creation" other than the weekly news posts.

TL;DR: FosseryWeb will become mostly unmaintained after pushing some of the already planned, WIP features/content. Only the articles section will be maintained.
