If you're using mu and want to set-up two-factor authentication or app passwords, you need to be logged in with your username and password NOT with OAuth (the default option). After you login go to settings -> Privacy and Security

There’s much more to do, including developing and running independent safety and moderation tools and capacity for the European Atmosphere ecosystem; continuing to develop mu and launching its mobile apps; developing additional infrastructure components as well as continuously improving and strengthening existing infrastructure.

All of this costs a bunch of money! We have been successful in getting some grant funding for project work that will enable us to build additional tools for healthier online debate - which we’re very excited to tell you about very soon.

However the funding we need to run the core Eurosky infrastructure, develop mu, and keep building essential tools like moderation solutions is still lacking. These are the tech, engineering, design, and coordination costs. 

We want to make Eurosky self-sustaining over time, with services and subscriptions that bring revenue that we can reinvest into our tech - but this will take time. 

Today, we need your support - can you help with a recurring or one off donation?

Title: A message to all Eurosky members and friends

We need your help - can you support Eurosky with a monthly or one-off donation?

We are building Eurosky on the principle that it is possible to build better social tech that also prioritize people’s interests over corporate greed. Since the beginning of the year we’ve taken big steps towards our mission of building independent infrastructure and experience for social media in Europe. 

In April we launched a fundraiser to help accelerate our roadmap, in particular:

- Building a European microblogging app backend, to support European apps
- Growing our PDS capacity
- Supporting up to 100k users

Since then, we have raised nearly €15,000 Euros that have directly contributed to:

- Upgrading our PDS servers, which are now used by more than 22,000 people, up from around 10,000 when we launched the fundraiser - with plenty of room to grow.
- Deploying a high availability Eurosky relay in Europe serving Atmosphere apps, so apps can access Atmosphere data easily from a European source.
- Deploying a PLC mirror in Europe serving Atmosphere apps, to ensure that people’s identities also have a European server.
- Kicked off building the microblogging backend (“app view”) with a deployment planned for the end of July.
- Developed and launched mu, our microblogging application with wildly cool features, hitting 100k active users in its first month, to rave reviews.

Whilst all of this costs more than the 15k we raised, it would not have been possible without it.
