I was checking #DigiPres posts on Bluesky from the shadows for some months now, but finally caved in and created an account... I'll probably remain more active on mastodon though, but I'm here for the people who are talking about #DigitalPreservation & are not present on digipres.club

I released it under MIT license–and finally got around to writing a proper Readme! 🎉 Hoping that other find this useful, too! github.com/rsimon/cozy-...
