kyselo.eu updates

100 days of shitposting

Wed, 21 Oct 2020 16:05:26 +0200

today it's 100 days after Kyselo was succesfully installed.

But it dates way longer than that:

back then in 2011 I found soup.io and registered an account here.
in 2015 I actually created first version of Kyselo, this time just on paper and later as HTML mockup.
in 2017 I started to write my diary. I used Soup for this purpose but Soup was all 500s and no the stability, so I started work on a clone, which went live three days before Christmas.
in 2020 as part of ongoing apocalypse, Soup.io was shut down. So I started Kyselo project.

Today Kyselo has small but nice community. Development somewhat stalled, but new features are still being developed. Kyselo is free to use, but there is donate button which is actually used - I spent those money in tape recorders and stuff.

Finally, some numbers:

we are alive for 100 days (0 years 3 months)
we have 141 users
and 36 groups
most active user is @gpkvt with 3028 posts
most active group is @memes with 142 posts
there are about 124 post per day
of these 65 are originals (no reposts)

many faces of Kyselo

Kyselo is primarily a social network, but can be used in other ways:

as your own personal meme storage
as bookmark manager (very powerful when using with tags as described in last update)
(in fact those were original functions of my private instance when there were no other users)
as personal journal/diary
as youtube playlist

For those last two functions I added new views of your blog/group which can be enabled on your settings tab.

And now something completely different - stats:

we are alive for 86 days (0 years 2 months)
we have 139 users
and 35 groups
most active user is @gpkvt with 3009 posts
most active group is @memes with 125 posts
there are about 137 post per day
of these 73 are originals (no reposts)

consume! (RSS)

in last update, I asked you for donations. After one day first donation arrived and to this day seven people donated.

One of them is Andrzej even though he has no account on Kyselo yet. He asked for RSS channel of /all. Because this is relatively easy I implemented it - /all/rss.

There are also another improvements:

there is new RSS button for humans and <link> tag for machines
you can now watch RSS feed of certain tag - e.g. things I found funny - /severak/rss?tag=funny
tags works also for /all, but you have to make URLs yourself - e.g. https://kyselo.eu/all?tag=important
THE END looks better
if you link to Kyselo from Facebook, link now looks better
and finally - stats are autogenerated

Speaking of stats, here are some:

we are alive for 57 days (0 years 1 months)
we have 136 users
and 34 groups
most active user is @gpkvt with 1814 posts
most active group is @cats with 109 posts
there are about 155 post per day
of these 82 are originals (no reposts)

donate button added

Tue, 25 Aug 2020 17:37:27 +0200

as you may have noticed, development of Kyselo somewhat stalled. This is because I was:

- on vacation (without internet)
- demotivated (by hot weather)
- ill and later super tired

I needed to somehow restore my motivation so I thought: What about financial motivation? (evil smile)

Now you can

DONATE

cause I need a dollar baby, dollar is what I need.

All donated money will be spend on hosting fee, beer and synths (in that order). I have already spent 1016 CZK on hosting/domain fee.

Otherwise Kyselo is pretty much alive:

we have 134 users
and 34 groups
102 people already posted something
biggest spammer is @gpkvt with 1148 posts - congratulations!
most active group is @memes with 100 posts
there is about 120 posts each day
with cca 50 of them being originals (no reposts)

kyselo has new home

Wed, 22 Jul 2020 00:07:09 +0200

as you probably noticed - kyselo has new home - kyselo.eu.

For now it stays on the same hosting as it was before - so you cannot post porn yet. Sorry.

I added feature requested by @chosneck - a list of all users (use this to find your friend from Soup). I also added list of followed blogs to each friends page and a list of members to each group.

I did more little changes - for example blog avatars are now displayed as 50px wide thumbnails, not in full size.

And now some numbers:

there are currently 113 registered users
each day several new people appear
75 people already posted something
@desinteressement is biggest poster - he already posted 666 times (sic!)
we already have 10 groups (and several abandoned)

Yours truly @severak

PS: please, do not advertise Kyselo on Loforo, they don't like it and may ban you.

PS2: stole memes from them. :-)
