Hey patrons, it's been a while—so I wanted to fill you all in on where I've been 👋
Last month I was invited to go to Berlin to do coverage of Nextcloud's conference (this video is almost done! It's a fun one)
Aside from the traveling, I ended up catching COVID on (likely) the flight home and fell behind on things for both Techlore & my personal life. Kicked my ass this time...

Hey patrons, we previously showcased our Anonymous Allies in our 'support' page on our site, we just migrated this to our homepage as a more proper showcase of your support for us. We couldn't do this without all of your support, so thank you to all patrons - especially anonymous allies ❤️
2023-04-04 19:11:35 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone, Henry 👋
For those who've been supporting us for a while on Patreon, you may recall the various methods I've tried to engage with the platform - from monthly livestreams to movie nights.
Historically, the problem revolved around the amount of time required to offer fun perks, that frankly only a small percentage of supporters engaged with. (Which...
2022-10-31 09:12:39 +0000 UTC View PostHey everyone, Henry 👋
This is a long overdue PSA, and I'm sorry for how long it’s taken me to catch up with communication.
First, I want to apologize for how poorly we’ve been maintaining our Patreon. We’ve been inconsistent in delivering your perks, as well as taking an embarrassing amount of time responding to messages. I’m genuinely impressed there are so many of you s...
2022-10-05 20:07:57 +0000 UTC View PostFor those who missed the announcements, we recently opened a brand new forum community!

At the beginning of each month, we post tentative sneakpeaks for certain Patreon tiers (Hidden Helpers & higher) with content we hope to publish that month. However, April received no such notice, and this is due to an internal change you should be aware of:
We learned that setting...

2021-09-28 20:39:31 +0000 UTC View PostBeen a while since we've done one of these! Not too many changes, so let's hop right in.
Planting your flag is the idea of marking your digital territory to prevent others from impersonating and/or stealing your identity. We'll chat about these situations, what to do about them, how to keep your identity safe, and the floor will be open for questions in real-time to those tuning in.
We're going to kick this off Wednesday, September 1st @ 6 PM UTC. (Hopefu...

2021-08-03 19:11:43 +0000 UTC View PostI am happy to announce our first ever movie night (woot woot 🎉)
Some context, I assigned our production team to watch Zero Days - a documentary/movie covering Stuxnet as inspiration for an upcoming video of ours. We’d love to have you join as well 😃 Stuxnet is a massive deal and the movie is pretty well acclaimed, so definitely try and tag along if you’re able!
Well I’m finally back from Vacation 😃 Apologies for lackluster communication in regards to our monthly meetup. I’ll be in a Jitsi room tomorrow at Noon, Pacific time (UTC -8)
I’ll post a link here so we can all chat in addition to (hopefully) a livestream. Supposedly there’s a way to livestream Jitsi meetings 🤷♂️ Will be looking into this. Happy March and ...
2021-03-02 01:57:14 +0000 UTC View PostIt's time to do our livestream! I'll be going live at Noon, pacific time. Use this link to view when the livestream starts in your timezone.
Some notes:
Things are constantly changing here at Techlore - and it's time to update our supporters on what's happening.
I’ve been on vacation these last few days, but I’m doing my best to make time for our monthly stream.
Let’s shoot for February 3rd @ Noon Pacific Time. I’ll send a final reminder the day before. Thanks for your support and especially your patience. ♥️
2021-02-02 05:09:02 +0000 UTC View PostAfter our video hiatus, we’ve finally resumed our content. Our January $5 patrons & higher are now updated on our webpage and in the outro of our newest video. 🎉 Thanks for your support!
FYI: There are now over 50 people in the outro—it scrolls too quickly to even read names, it’s a great problem to have! Because of this, It’s likely next month will introduce a new Patreon ...

Haven’t upgraded audio in our videos for over 3 years, and we can finally justify the extra cost partly thanks to your help and support. Thank you all!
2020-12-16 21:08:01 +0000 UTC View PostHello Patrons,
Unfortunately YouTube has again mis-striked our channel due to a URL (This time it was a Coinbase URL) meaning I am unable to upload or livestream for a week. We will have a make-up session once things have returned. Sorry for the inconvenience :(

Hello Patrons. Several of you over time have expressed you’d prefer a one-time support method that deviates from the monthly/annual subscription.
Today, I’m proud to introduce our first one-time support method ♥️
