Free Radical is now on Mastodon v2.9.3.

I’m suspending the kiwifarms.cc instance. Their public timeline is full of literal Nazi content, pedophilia advocacy, and aggressive trolling. I’d put this off because I hoped it wouldn’t be needed, but there you go.

The GitHub content that used to be hosted under https://github.com/kstrauser/freeradical is now at https://github.com/freeradical-dot-zone, in separate repos for Ansible, scripts, and content.
