Hello! It's been a month since we haven't updated you with the state of Project Segfault, we're still doing well, it just happened that I (Midou) didn't have much to talk about last month and preferred to start making blogposts when there is something interesting to show. This means there could be months where nothing happens and Project Segfault doesn't need a blog post with an empty burger. With that said, we've made some new stuff this month, notably...

Invidious, Piped will be broken for the foreseeable future

YouTube have lately been ramping up the fight with Ad-Blocks + 3rd party clients (which makes Piped and Invidious also targeted by them). We have received info from the Invidious team of some changes that will be done. However we can't tell much more than that as per their request. In our side, we can't really do much unless we pay for a residential proxy to rotate frequently to keep catching up with YouTube, but this is way too expensive for what we currently have in our funds to be able to attempt this (psst, donating helps).

Pizza downtime in August

We had a brief downtime of Pizza (hosted at Avoro) due to them not sending emails about having to pay, so we always have a downtime due to avoro shutting the vps down, notifying to pay, and we do so and have to re-decrypt the drive after that only Midou and Arya have. Which takes time to do.

2 New donations

We received two small donations last month, you can find them in the Transparency repo.

That is all for this month and the past month.
