Deprecation of etherpad.gnome.org
discourse.gnome.org
Hi folks, As we are trying to reduce the number of maintained services, we are going to disable Etherpad in a month, on 2022-12-01. The recommended alternative is Hedgedoc, which seems to fit requirements of various teams better. Please make sure to migrate any notes you wish to keep to avoid data loss. Thanks, Bart

The etherpad site shut down in December 1, for Gnome’s Hedgedoc instance.

To save time, instead maintaining both. The decision was announced in October 31, by Bartłomiej Piotrowski.

    at work we still use a hackmd instance. it has an outdated imgur extension and the service crashes when anyone tries to upload an image.

    the solution was to set the docker restart policy to always. lmao

    wait, does HedgeDoc also allow real-time collaboration like Etherpad does?

          Anyway, I guess I reduced today’s bandwidth… Or not, and PeerTube could react faster sometimes (Live ended a while ago, yet didn’t reacted for 5-10 minutes)

          Anyway, I guess I’ll record to storage too, as it didn’t saved it to peertube, due to some error.

          Still, it felt way better than my 1st time testing Twitch/Youtube live. Maybe because so many things can go better, but also was fun to type real-time with a guest.

          Perhaps Group Chat clients could display the actual message in typing, but just an idea for now.

          Anyway, I’ll rest a bit.

      Yes, it’s also capable for realtime collaboration. HedgeDoc just joined the Fosstodon instance on Mastodon at November, while Etherpad has a bot on it with 0 news.
