About wargamers.social

If miniatures gaming is your thing, check out the instance hosted by Wargames, Soldiers & Strategy Magazine for like-minded hobbyists.

What can I post?

You're welcome to post about anything you want when the visibility is “Unlisted” or “For followers”. The Local timeline is “Public” and moderated. This is a community for wargamers about wargaming and the Local timeline should reflect topics related to the hobby. We’ll interpret “related to the hobby” liberally to encourage discussion, but draw the line at posts dealing with contemporary sexuality, gender, politics, race, or religion that denigrate others, or are intended to polarize the community. If you’re not sure how a potential post will be received, be conservative and post it as “Unlisted” or “For followers”, or use content warnings. The server rules apply to all posts regardless of visibility. Please follow them.

Is it free?

It's free. One of appeals of Mastodon is that it's free of the data harvesting and monetization practices so common on the web today. If the operational costs become unmanageable, I'll bring it to the community and we can solve it together.

Daily backups

Full daily backups are done nightly so you can have the confidence that an outage will not erase all of your data.

Redundant administration of the server infrastructure

A second administrator is on hand to mitigate the risk of a life event preventing me from administering the environment.

Commitment to 12 months of advance warning in case of shutting down

Sometimes services shut down, it is the cycle of life. I commit to maintaining 12 months of operating costs on hand to ensure you have time to move to another instance in the event this instance shuts down.

Can I help?

Absolutely. Ping me and we can discuss how you can best contribute.
