My YouTube video talking about that steamdeck . info store, that JSAUX teamed up with, that sold Steam Accounts and still claims to sell brand new Steam Decks at a discount is still blocked in the UK for “defamation” 🙃

Anyone out there been able to solve this? There doesn't seem to be a solution on github.com/YunoHost-Apps/frien… or maybe I'm just missing it.
Thanks in advance.

Following the info on github.com/friendica/friendica… I was able to successfully run a backup in maintenance mode. May have been a coincidence, but I will try it again tomorrow.
@Michael Vogel @zeitverschreib [friendica] like running mysqlcheck -o -A ?
Also I guess you could disable php-fpm and nginx for the time you do this work. Maybe manually systemctl stop the services that look like Friendica needs them.
But the solution of @Michael Vogel is better if it works.
Thanks, I will try those commands the next time. For now, setting the instance to maintenance seems to do the trick.

It is 2023 and we are eager to release a new Heroic version with many improvements. We still don't know when it will be ready but so far let us show you a sneak peak of it:
- The Games Settings was moved to a Modal now. So no need to navigate to another page just to change them.
- We are adding a new setting to auto update games and also one to skip updates for a game.
- Improvements on how we find Wine/Proton/Crossover on launch.
And many other features and fixes.
@gamingonlinux Yes. It is a setting disabled by default. If enabled, as soon as Heroic detects a game update, it will add to the download queue.
The Skip games update, will make Heroic still show that a game has an update (the update icon), but launching the game won't show any warning of some kind. And if the auto update setting is enabled, this game won't be added to the queue.

However, that doesn’t explain the final post on the list, which links to a different blog post and which doesn’t include any media at all.
