Anubis works

That meme is not an understatement, Anubis has been deployed by the United Nations.

For your amusement, here is how the inner monologue of me finding out about this went:

I hate to shake my can and ask for donations, but if you are using Anubis and it helps, please donate on Patreon. I would really love to not have to work in generative AI anymore because the doublethink is starting to wear at my soul.

Also, do I happen to know anyone at UNESCO? I would love to get in touch with their systems administrator team and see if they had any trouble with setting it up. I'm very interested in making it easier to install.

This makes the big deployments that I know about include:

• The Linux Kernel Mailing List archives
• FreeBSD's SVN (and soon git)
• SourceHut
• FFmpeg
• Wine
• UNESCO
• The Science Olympiad Student Center
• Enlightenment (the desktop environment)
• GNOME's GitLab

The conversation I'm about to have with my accountant is going to be one of the most surreal conversations of all time.

The part that's the most wild to me is when I stop and consider the scale of these organizations. I think that this means that the problem is much worse than I had previously anticipated. I know that at some point YouTube was about to hit "the inversion" where they get more bot traffic than they get human traffic. I wonder how much this is true across most of, if not all of the Internet right now.

I guess this means that I really need to start putting serious amounts of effort into Anubis and the stack around it. The best way that can be ensured is if I can get enough money to survive so I can put my full time effort into it. I may end up hiring people.

This is my life now. Follow me on Bluesky if you want to know when the domino meme gets more ridiculous!
