Appreciate you replying.
I have actually tried this in the past. It's not that simple. Reddit uses a combination of IP, MAC, device, as well as other data to know who you are.
I got someone else to post there for me, and it was removed because they didn't have enough karma.
Its fine. We've managed to raised £2,125 so far and we still have 24-36 hours to keep going.
We've got good momentum and people are good. I believe.
What? What are you saying right now?
Are you trying to tell me that because there are plenty more cats in shelters, that I should just let my boy die?
What's wrong with you?
So while we're hammering on with the fundraising activity, I've had this mulling over in the back of my mind and my initial thoughts are to utilize something like DocuSign, or something along those lines. At my work we developed something for the customers of our application to manage their signature required documents, which could be emailed out to the recipient, and they could digitally sign it before sending it back.
We're pretty stacked in terms of resource at the moment (deployment of a new application, upgrades, fixes and performance investigations across others), so I likely won't be able to get a great deal of support from the team. But I'll have a look at what our stuff looks like and see if there's anything I can take as inspiration, or at the very least get some understanding of functionality.
Is there a better way for us to communicate than here? I use ProtonMail, Signal, and more recently I've started getting into Mastodon. I know Discord is pretty good, but I have heard concerning rumours around their privacy policy. Do you have any preference? I also just got set up with Skiff, which has a good workspace solution, all E2E, and seems to just work. There's also Jitsi Meet that I've been toying with with my friends, but haven't really given it a great deal of use.
Of course, if your preference would be to stay here for now, that's totally fine (but do you have any recommendations for any web client? Just got onto a Windows Server laptop I've recently spun up, as I was struggling to keep up with everything on my mobile)
We might have made a mistake somewhere, as the r/assistance post was removed. Also r/cats and r/aww don't allow GoFundMe posts. She's going to r/GoFundMe next.
Good news though, we're just about to surpass £2k!
Thanks again Cujo.
Really appreciate your response Cujo, thank you. I've asked my partner to post over on reddit and she's posted it to r/assistance. I'll ask her to reach out to the mods of r/aww and r/cats too.
That would be cool. I primarily deal in SQL, and mostly handle first line support, but also deal with on-prem to hosted migration on AWS, I find and report bugs, raise tickets, test fixes, and do some account management type stuff with customers.
I'll loop back to this and if you're still up for it, let's get something going when all this madness has settled down.
Great idea, I would love to!
Once this is sorted, and Bernie is home and well, I'll get on it.
When this is done and dusted, I will look into how this might work from an infrastructure perspective.
My role is in IT and it would be a fun project. Thanks again so much.
Thank you. The response has actually been incredible and I'm about to head to some shops in my area to post a printed version with a QR code.
I'm sorry to have broken some rules, that wasn't my intention. We're honestly just trying to do right by our boy.
