Thank you yunohost
Ever since I started looking into the Fediverse, FOSS/FLOSS, privacy and self-hosting I was pleasantly surprised by how engaging and helpful the community can be.
As an example: in Fosstodon all my interactions have been very nice, from sharing random unrelated stuff to asking for advice on more technical matters everyone has always been helpful and willing to give advice.
Another great experience I had recently was related with the yunohost project (long story short, my Open Media Vault setup went down in flames, tutorial coming shortly), being kind of a big project one would think that as an individual, communication would be slow or hard, kind of like with companies as a consumer.
Surprisingly, all it took was a toot and a post on their forum to get up and running.
My first interaction was related to the fact that the available Raspberry pi image was neither the latest version (4.0.3 at the time of writing) nor booting on my pi, so after reading that the pi 4 was not supported officially and tooting about it I was surprised to receive a response from @yunohost prompting me to install on top of Raspberry Pi OS lite (it'll always be Raspbian for me) using a curl one liner.
My second interaction, and after installing some apps, I came across another issue, the synapse (Matrix server) app installation failed and I wrote this post on the forum. I was surprised again to receive an answer in less than 24 hours! This time I just installed from the testing branch on their repo.
I have nothing but good things to say so far, and I will donate to the project, it is only fair and they are doing a great job.
