⚠️⚠️⚠️ CYBERIA HQ IS UNDER CONSTRUCTION ⚠️⚠️⚠️

Do you want to help with the construction effort? Get in touch with j3s or forest in matrix. We communicate about construction in the #cyberia:cyberia.club matrix channel.

For more context about why construction is necessary, see the FAQ.

The space is to be used only for the purposes of construction currently. We have some rules if you'd like to help out:

Be an informed DIYer: if you do not know how to do something, find someone who does and ask them what the proper technique is. do your research - this space will be used communally, and we are responsible for making sure it is a safe environment.
Do not take risks: if you feel that thing would be risky, do not do that thing. the construction site is currently hazardous, and we must respect that.
Wear a respirator: buy and use an appropriate respiration device. There is a hardware store nearby that you can purchase one at - they are typically $30-$50.
