Dear Hackers!

In March we grew to roughly 25,700 InfoSec friends. That is an increase of 700 additional friends - Welcome to #IOCX Everyone!

Our Moderators dealt with ~30 reports in March. Remember: Our Mods are volunteers, so be nice and show gratitude when you see @cstromblad online!

In March the cost of running #IOCX was $370, our efforts to minimize hosting costs brought down the costs by another $20 :-) - Here is the breakdown of the March costs:
$298 Linode Server Hosting
$72 AWS S3

Donations and memberships amounted to $175 for the month of March. The rest of the costs @seb covered with his personal funds. A very big shout-out to everyone who already supported or supports #IOCX - It is much appreciated! Everyone, who hasn't contributed: Please consider contributing financially through our BuyMeACoffee page.


In March we were able to execute on the following improvements:

  • Upgrading to the latest Mastodon version


There is always more to do of course. Here are some ideas for improvements that we will work on in the coming weeks:

  • Adding a Translation feature based on LibreTranslate
  • Register a DMCA agent


Please keep feedback coming and Have Fun and Stay Safe!
