Hey y'all!

We're proud to announce that Skycord is now able to accept donations through Ko-Fi AND GitHub Sponsors (officially this time)!

If you enjoy the bot and want to see it grow and improve, please consider donating!

hi guys a couple catgirls took over the account and although we can now show some progress, we'll get sprayed with water if we don't censor project codenames

By the way - growth was never a goal for me

My friends were like "oh I'm on bluesky and don't have a way to get my posts to discord"

Made a solution and decided to make it public, then fix it later.

It's fulfilling to make things for people you know. Strive to be like me, peasants.

Currently in the process of moving so uh
V2 is going to take a LONG time while I try and get my shit together

(y'all please give me grace I know shits hella broke rn)

MikroORM keeps doing this and I don't know why. It's pissing me off because it can't store channel IDs correctly.

Someone please help 😭😭😭

shits fucked yo (nothing breaking it's just annoying database stuff)

Orchid is having trouble. I know. If you're experiencing issues and want it resolved immediately, use @skycord.app or help find bugs on our github: github.com/kyanoxia/orc...

Mean time, I'm working on a v2 of the bot anyways so bugs won't be fixed immediately (why this account has been so quiet).

As of today, we're fully running on Pyro! 🎉🥳
Aside from the database, which is still MongoDB.

The new privacy policy is not ready yet, but all that's really going to change is adding a link to Pyro's Privacy Policy, as our core policy hasn't changed.

We've launched the Pyro Open Source Foundation, welcome our first beneficiary! 🎉
Stable hosting... finally...

We've partnered with @pyro.host to beef up our hosting. We're no longer going to be running on a raspberry pi soon!

In a week's time, Orchid will be fully running on their infrastructure, and an updated Privacy Policy will be issued. Read it!

We're back

Another power failure. We'll be back up soon ❤️
March 22, 2025 at 3:16 PM
Orchid is back up, sorry for the inconvenience!

We had a power failure yesterday but all is taken care of now!

Donate on the Ko-Fi or GitHub Sponsors so we can run on a VPS and not on my parents' network ❤️

Thank you everyone for 300 guilds!
This is monumental, and we're eternally grateful to be able to provide a service used by so many.

Here's to helping many more people build their community 🎉

We're back up and running!

Thanks for your support, and we should not have any more power failures (unless we do ;))

Orchid is down due to various issues; expect it to be back up later today.

If you'd like to help contribute to buying a VPS and help to support me, please donate to the Ko-Fi.

Bot's being fuckier, taking it offline until I can pinpoint the issue.
December 10, 2024 at 2:09 AM
No substantial changes have been made, but I am obligated to tell you that the privacy policy and terms of service have been updated. Please go read them on the GitHub.

(hardly anything changed aside from the bot's name)

📢New Update! (1/5)
Here's what's changed (v2.0.0)

- We have migrated to the public Bluesky Jetstream
- API calls are now more conveniently handled
- The database got rebuilt to focus on channels connected to accounts, rather than accounts connected to guilds
December 9, 2024 at 11:36 PM
Clearly - we have new branding.

Orchids represent grace. The logo may not be final, and I'm still waiting on Discord to officially change the name of the bot, but I suppose this can be considered part of the v2 update.

Sorry for the sudden change, but it must be done.

I'll keep you updated.

So as you probably knew (if you use Skycord), there's been some drama afoot

Basically, I made a false assumption that @midnightwolf.bsky.social was attempting to impersonate me by using some assets extremely similar to the ones I created

This wasn't the case and we've come to a mutual agreement

Okay so it's very much broken right now, but I know *where* the error is. I just don't know *how* the error is. Expect maintenance to run until monday (because I'm one girl coding this myself and I need sleep tonight)
December 8, 2024 at 5:18 AM
Skycord v2 maintenance is going to start VERY soon. Be prepared for outages and inconsistencies (you shouldn't get ping spammed).
