Happy New Year! We’re kicking off 2024 with a Community Update after a very eventful end of 2023. We’ll give you a look at what Staff have been doing behind the scenes, an update from our Developer Team, and a preview of what’s in store for the platform. Community Stats: 

As of January 19, 2024 Pillowfort currently has over 170,467 registered users and over 9,928 Communities. The rest of this post is under the cut.

In 2023 we have…

Avoided shutdown thanks to your generous support.

Launched Pillowfort Premium

Tested and launched Drafts 

Added new premium frames. 

Updated our Terms of Service.

Updated our Business Plan.

Continued work on the PWA & Queue.

Blocked ChatGPT Bots our platform.

Announced our upcoming policy on Generative AI.

Increased weekly invitations keys to from 10 to 50. 

Continued patching bugs. 

Welcome New Users!

Welcome to Pillowfort. We are so glad you are part of our community. If you haven’t yet, check out the Pillowfort101 Getting Started Guide.

Thank you for keeping Pillowfort Alive! 

Your support during the End of Year Fundraiser helped us avoid ending contracts with our Staff and averted the end of our platform for another six months (July 2024). We can not express our gratitude enough to you. This has been an extremely challenging and stressful time for each member of the team. We are going to work hard to keep Pillowfort online. You have motivated us to continue the fight to be a viable platform. You may have noticed that our donation bar has reset to $5,000 at the beginning of January. This number is our monthly operating costs going forward.  Each month in 2024 that we meet our funding goal it will extend Pillowfort’s life past July 2024. 

Generative AI Ban Policy Update

We will be implementing our updated policy regarding Generative AI in the next site update. Prior to when the policy will be implemented we will share with the community what our definition of Generative AI is and our moderation process. 

We're aware that there are concerns about how moderation systems surrounding generative AI have been abused and used for harassment on other sites: we have consulted with experts on how to avoid those issues, and the suite of moderation methods from international universities also assist with identifying harassment. Abuse of reporting systems will be taken seriously by Staff.

End of Year Fundraiser Limited Edition Badge Gift Form

The form for gifting the Limited Edition Badge to other users who couldn’t donate is now live! Click Here to Fill Out the Form. (Note: We’ll be also making a separate Staff Alert with the link as well.)

Updated Business Plan

The Pillowfort Premium subscription model remains our primary answer to generate the necessary funds needed to cover the costs of running our platform. We will continue to offer optional premium features which can be purchased by users a la carte. However, we will be working on completing the following major projects / updates as an expansion of our revenue strategy in the first half of 2024:

Release of the Progressive Web App w/ Push Notifications - The data is very clear that the lack of a mobile app is hindering our overall growth. A PWA will allow our mobile users to experience all the functionality of a native mobile app and will be much easier for our Developer Team to build & maintain than a native app. We also won't have to worry about App Store content restrictions.

Post Promotions & User-Submitted Advertisement Opt-Ins - Users will be able to promote their posts (as advertisements) by paying a fee. No subscription is required to promote a post. By default, this promoted content will only be displayed on a page specifically for viewing promoted content. While this will mean potentially less revenue, it is important to our philosophy to respect our user’s experience and not force advertising on everyone. However, users can opt into viewing promoted content in their home feed, and will receive a discount on premium features for doing so.

Subscription Gifting - Users will be able to purchase subscriptions that can be gifted to other users. Subscriptions can be gifted to a specific other user, or can be added to a communal pool for any unsubscribed users to take from. We will provide special badges for users who gift subscriptions.

Pillowfort Premium Price Increase - We will be adjusting prices to help us fund our overall operating costs. We will notify the community before any price increase is final.

Mobile Pillowfort Premium Frames - Add an option for mobile users to view Pillowfort Premium Avatar Frames in their feeds.

Other Goals for Completion in 2024 (Goals are subject to change)

Release Queue & Scheduling

Rebuild the post image uploader widget.

Rebuild the way notifications are logged & retrieved in the back-end to be more efficient & reduce errors.

Release an Onboarding Guide for new users.

Release Multi-account management/linking.

Add 2-Factor Authentication.

Enable Community Membership Applications.

Release Community Topics/Organization Options.

Help Us Keep the Lights On!

At Pillowfort we do not receive any funding from venture capital or other outside investors because we are committed to keeping our user experience a priority, and not being beholden to outside interests. While this approach allows us to stay true to our ideals and content guidelines, it also presents many challenges to our team in the form of limited resources, personnel, etc.

Our continued survival depends on the generosity of our community. If you are able to, please consider supporting us with a one-time or recurring monthly donation to help keep Pillowfort online. Any money donated to us now will be applied as a credit to your account when we release paid features & benefits in the future.

Bug Bounty Reminder

We are still offering a Bug Bounty. If you find a bug on the site, particularly one that could pose a threat to the security or functionality of the site, contact Staff through our Contact form or directly at info@pillowfort.social. If you are unsure if we received your report, you can send us a DM to the Staff account here, or DM one of our social media channels to check on the status.

your 3DS is OFFLINE . . .

(mucho texto below)

On April 8th, 2024, the online services for Nintendo 3DS and Wii U were shutdown. This affects online play across all games, and SpotPass, used in apps like Swapdoodle; this renders online-required games unplayable, most notably Nintendo Badge Arcade.

As of the date I'm writing this not aaall online features are unaccessible, Friends List seem to be working, Pokémon Bank is still running, usable for free and compatible with Pokémon Home, and you can download updates and games from the eShop (only if you bought them before the eShop shutdown from March 27th, 2023...), but there's no guarantee those will last much longer.

anyways Pretendo Network is a replacement for Nintendo Network that not only aims to restore online play, but also other abandoned features such as Miiverse and the Wara Wara Plaza.

Setting up Pretendo is pretty easy, there's a guide on its website for both Wii U, 3DS and their respective emulators, and you don't even need modding on Wii U for it to work (with some limitations), but you might as well do it since it's so easy (Wii U modding guide - 3DS modding guide)

Currently Pretendo is in a beta state and active development so it's not really a fully realized replacement yet, but a couple of popular games are supported well enough at the moment, like Mario Kart 7, Splatoon and Super Mario Maker (personally i care more about pokemon gen 6 and mh4u and idk if those will be supported aaaa oh well).

Since this is technically a whole different server, some things don't carry over from you Nintendo Network ID to your Pretendo Network ID, like your badges(you should backup your badges before using Pretendo on 3DS) or your Friends List... so I gotta fill it up again! my new 3DS Friend Code is 3878-6726-5312 and my PNID is dibudani (for Wii U), add me right now !!

"Why is the little wifi guy so happy?" idk. why was toad happy when Club Nintendo was discontinued?

Cost of Setting Up an Electric Vehicle Charging Station in India (2025 Guide)

With India accelerating its transition to electric mobility, the demand for EV charging stations is growing rapidly. Whether you're a business owner, real estate developer, or green tech enthusiast, setting up an electric vehicle (EV) charging station is a promising investment. But how much does it really cost to build one? Let's break it down.

Before diving into the costs, it's important to understand the types of EV chargers and the scope of services provided by modern EV charging solution providers like Tobor, a rising name in the EV infrastructure space offering smart, scalable, and efficient EV charging solutions across India.

Types of EV Charging Stations

Understanding the charger types is essential, as this heavily influences the overall cost:

1. AC Charging Stations

AC (Alternating Current) chargers are typically used for slower charging applications, ideal for residential societies, office complexes, and commercial locations with longer dwell times.

Level 1 Chargers: 3.3 kW output, suitable for two- and three-wheelers.

Level 2 Chargers: 7.2 kW to 22 kW, suitable for four-wheelers (e.g., home or workplace).

2. DC Fast Charging Stations

DC (Direct Current) chargers are used where quick charging is required, such as highways, malls, or public parking zones.

DC Fast Chargers: Start from 30 kW and go up to 350 kW.

They can charge an electric car from 0 to 80% in under an hour, depending on the vehicle.

Cost Breakdown for EV Charging Station Setup

The total cost to set up an electric car charging station in India can vary depending on the type of charger, infrastructure, and location. Here is a detailed breakdown:

1. EV Charging Equipment Cost

The cost of the electric car charger itself is one of the biggest components:

AC Chargers: ₹50,000 to ₹1.5 lakh

DC Fast Chargers: ₹5 lakh to ₹40 lakh (depending on capacity and standards like CCS, CHAdeMO, Bharat DC-001)

Tobor offers a range of chargers including TOBOR Lite (3.3 kW), TOBOR 7.2 kW, and TOBOR 11 kW – suitable for home and commercial use.

2. Infrastructure Costs

You’ll also need to invest in site preparation and power infrastructure:

Land Lease or Purchase: Costs vary widely by city and location.

Electrical Upgrades: Transformer, cabling, and power grid integration can cost ₹5 to ₹10 lakh.

Civil Work: Parking bays, shelter, lighting, signage, and accessibility features – ₹2 to ₹5 lakh.

Installation: Depending on charger type and electrical capacity, installation can range from ₹50,000 to ₹3 lakh.

3. Software & Networking Costs

Smart EV charging stations are often connected to networks for billing, load management, and user access:

EVSE Management Software: ₹50,000 to ₹2 lakh depending on features (Tobor integrates smart software as part of its offering).

Mobile App Integration: Enables users to find, reserve, and pay at your station.

OCPP Protocols: Ensures interoperability and scalability of your station.

4. Operational & Maintenance Costs

Running an EV charging station includes recurring costs:

Electricity Bills: ₹5–₹15 per kWh, depending on the state and provider.

Internet Connectivity: ₹1,000–₹2,000 per month for online monitoring.

Station Maintenance: ₹50,000 to ₹1 lakh annually.

Staff Salaries: If you have on-site attendants, this could range ₹1 to ₹3 lakh annually.

Marketing: ₹50,000 or more for signage, promotions, and digital visibility.

Total Investment Required

Here’s an estimate of the total cost based on the scale of your EV charging station:

Type

Estimated  Range

Level 1 (Basic AC)

₹1 lakh – ₹3 lakh

Level 2 (Commercial AC)

₹3 lakh – ₹6 lakh

DC Fast Charging Station

₹10 lakh – ₹40 lakh

These costs can vary based on customization, location, and electricity load availability. Tobor offers tailored solutions to help you choose the right hardware and software based on your needs.

Government Support and Subsidies

To promote EV adoption and reduce the cost of EV infrastructure:

FAME II Scheme: Offers capital subsidies for charging stations.

State Incentives: States like Delhi, Maharashtra, Kerala, and Gujarat offer reduced electricity tariffs, subsidies up to 25%, and faster approvals.

Ease of Licensing: As per Ministry of Power guidelines, EV charging is a de-licensed activity, making it easier to start.

Return on Investment (ROI)

An EV charging station in a good location with growing EV traffic can break even in 3 to 5 years. Revenue comes from:

Charging fees (per kWh or per session)

Advertisement and partnerships

Value-added services (e.g., parking, cafés, shopping zones nearby)

Final Thoughts

With India's electric mobility market booming, setting up an EV charging station is not only a sustainable choice but also a profitable long-term investment. Whether you're a fleet operator, business owner, or infrastructure developer, now is the perfect time to invest.

For reliable equipment, integrated software, and end-to-end EV charging solutions, Tobor is one of the leading EV charging solution providers in India. From residential setups to large-scale commercial EVSE projects, Tobor supports every step of your journey toward green mobility.

Building Your Own Operating System: A Beginner’s Guide

An operating system (OS) is an essential component of computer systems, serving as an interface between hardware and software. It manages system resources, provides services to users and applications, and ensures efficient execution of processes. Without an OS, users would have to manually manage hardware resources, making computing impractical for everyday use.

Lightweight operating system for old laptops

Functions of an Operating System

Operating systems perform several crucial functions to maintain system stability and usability. These functions include:

1. Process Management

 The OS allocates resources to processes and ensures fair execution while preventing conflicts. It employs algorithms like First-Come-First-Serve (FCFS), Round Robin, and Shortest Job Next (SJN) to optimize CPU utilization and maintain system responsiveness.

2. Memory Management

The OS tracks memory usage and prevents memory leaks by implementing techniques such as paging, segmentation, and virtual memory. These mechanisms enable multitasking and improve overall system performance.

3. File System Management

It provides mechanisms for reading, writing, and deleting files while maintaining security through permissions and access control. File systems such as NTFS, FAT32, and ext4 are widely used across different operating systems.

4. Device Management

 The OS provides device drivers to facilitate interaction with hardware components like printers, keyboards, and network adapters. It ensures smooth data exchange and resource allocation for input/output (I/O) operations.

5. Security and Access Control

 It enforces authentication, authorization, and encryption mechanisms to protect user data and system integrity. Modern OSs incorporate features like firewalls, anti-malware tools, and secure boot processes to prevent unauthorized access and cyber threats.

6. User Interface

Preparing Your Amazon Fire Stick

Before beginning the process of adding an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) to your Amazon Fire Stick, it is crucial to ensure that your device is properly prepared.

This involves updating the Fire Stick software and installing necessary tools to facilitate the installation and functionality of the EPG.

Updating Fire Stick Software

To start, users should verify that their Amazon Fire Stick software is current. Navigate to Settings > My Fire TV > About on your Fire Stick. Here, you can check for any available updates. If an update is found, proceed to install it to ensure your device runs smoothly and is compatible with the latest applications and features. Regular software updates can enhance the performance of your Fire Stick and fix potential security vulnerabilities.

Installing Necessary Tools

After updating the software, the next step is to install essential tools that will assist in the management and operation of your Fire Stick, especially for sideloading applications not available directly on the Amazon Appstore.

Install the Downloader App: Begin by installing the Downloader app from the Amazon Store. Use the Search function on the Fire Stick home screen to find and install this app.

Enable Apps from Unknown Sources: Go to Settings > My Fire TV > Developer Options. Here, toggles the option for Apps from Unknown Sources to ON. This setting allows the installation of applications from sources outside the official Amazon Appstore.

Consider a VPN App: For enhanced security and privacy, installing a VPN app like ExpressVPN or NordVPN is advisable. A VPN protects your streaming data and masks your online identity, which is particularly useful when accessing IPTV services.

Additional Tools: Installing a file manager, such as ES File Explorer, can be beneficial for managing files and sideloading apps. For a better media playing experience, consider adding VLC or Kodi, which support a wide range of media formats and streaming protocols.

By following these preliminary steps, your Amazon Fire Stick will be well-equipped to handle the installation of an EPG and any other IPTV applications. This preparation ensures a smoother setup process and a better overall user experience when accessing IPTV services on your device.

Installing EPG on Your Fire Stick

To install an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) on your Amazon Fire Stick, follow these detailed steps, ensuring you can access a wide range of movies xmltv information with ease.

Step-by-Step Installation Process

Access the Live Section: From your Fire Stick home screen, navigate to the "Live" tab. If this option isn't visible, consider updating your system by going to Settings > My Fire TV > About and selecting "Check for Updates".

Launch the Guide: Once in the Live section, scroll down and select "Guide" to open the built-in EPG, which aggregates channels from various sources.

Customize Your Channels: To personalize your EPG, press the options button (marked by three lines on your remote). This action brings up a menu where you can manage and add favorite channels. Choose "Manage Channels" to see active sources and adjust your preferences.

Add Additional Apps: For more channels, install apps like Xumo Play from the Amazon App Store. After installation, navigate to Settings > Live TV > Manage Channels and select "Sync Sources" to integrate Xumo Play into your EPG.

Adjust Channel Placement: To prioritize certain channels in your guide, use the "Move Source" option in the manage channels menu. This allows you to rearrange your channel lineup, placing preferred sources like Xumo Play at the top for easier access.

Adding Channel Information

Adding to Favorites: Highlight a channel you frequently watch, such as Divorce Court, and press the options button. Select "Add to Favorite Channels." A heart icon will appear next to the channel, indicating it's been added to your favorites.

Accessing Favorite Channels: To view your favorite channels list, press the home button, exit the EPG, and then go to Settings > Live TV. Here, you'll find the "Favorite Channels" option, showing all your selected favorites.

Channel Management: If you need to adjust your channel settings further or if a newly added app like Xumo Play doesn't appear immediately, consider restarting your Fire Stick or re-installing the application. This can often resolve syncing issues and ensure all channels are properly displayed in your EPG.

By following these steps, you can effectively install and customize an EPG on your Amazon Fire Stick, enhancing your IPTV viewing experience by organizing and personalizing the channel lineup according to your preferences.

How IPTV Works on Amazon Fire Stick

The Amazon Firestick has become a popular device for streaming media, offering a wide range of apps and services that cater to diverse entertainment needs. Among these, Internet Protocol Television (IPTV) is gaining traction as a versatile and convenient way to watch television. This blog will explain how IPTV works on Amazon Firestick, detailing the setup process, benefits, and considerations.

What is IPTV?

IPTV stands for Internet Protocol Television. Unlike traditional television that broadcasts via satellite or cable, IPTV delivers TV content through the internet. This method provides greater flexibility and a richer set of features, including on-demand video, live TV, and interactive services.

Setting Up IPTV on Firestick

To use IPTV on your Amazon Firestick, you’ll need to follow a few steps to set up the necessary applications and configure the service. Here’s a step-by-step guide:

1. Prepare Your Firestick

Before installing any IPTV service, ensure your Firestick is ready for new apps:

Update Your Firestick: Make sure your Firestick is updated to the latest software version. You can do this by going to Settings > My Fire TV > About > Check for Updates.

Enable Apps from Unknown Sources: Go to Settings > My Fire TV > Developer Options and turn on Apps from Unknown Sources. This allows you to install third-party applications that are not available on the Amazon Appstore.

2. Install an IPTV App

There are several IPTV apps compatible with Firestick. Some popular ones include:

Smart IPTV

Perfect Player

IPTV Smarters Pro

TiviMate

Here’s how to install one:

Using the Downloader App:

Install Downloader: From the Firestick home screen, go to Search and type “Downloader”. Select the Downloader app and install it.

Open Downloader: Launch the Downloader app.

Enter URL: In the URL field, enter the URL of the IPTV app’s APK file. For example, for IPTV Smarters Pro, you might use a specific URL provided by the IPTV service or find it on their official website.

Download and Install: Once the APK file is downloaded, the installation process will begin. Follow the on-screen prompts to install the app.

3. Configure the IPTV App

After installing the IPTV app, you need to configure it to start watching TV. The configuration process typically involves:

Entering M3U URL: Your IPTV provider will give you an M3U URL, which is a playlist file containing the IPTV channels. Open the installed IPTV app and look for an option to add a playlist or enter the M3U URL.

EPG URL: Some services also provide an Electronic Program Guide (EPG) URL, which allows you to see TV schedules and program information.

Login Details: Some IPTV services require you to log in with a username and password. Enter the credentials provided by your IPTV service.

4. Start Watching

Once the IPTV app is configured, you can start watching your favorite TV channels and on-demand content. Navigate through the app’s interface to access live TV, movies, TV shows, and other features provided by your IPTV service.

Benefits of Using IPTV on Firestick

1. Wide Range of Content

IPTV services often offer a vast array of channels from different countries and in various languages, providing access to a diverse range of content.

2. On-Demand Viewing

One of the biggest advantages of IPTV is the ability to watch content on demand. You can pause, rewind, or fast-forward through programs, providing a flexible viewing experience.

3. High-Quality Streaming

With a stable internet connection, IPTV can deliver high-definition (HD) and even 4K quality streams, enhancing your viewing experience.

4. Interactive Features

Many IPTV apps come with interactive features such as live TV pause, recording, and electronic program guides (EPG), making it easier to manage your viewing schedule.

Considerations When Using IPTV on Firestick

1. Reliable Internet Connection

IPTV requires a stable and high-speed internet connection. Buffering and streaming issues can occur with slower connections, affecting the viewing experience.

2. Legal and Security Concerns

Not all IPTV services are legal. It’s important to choose a reputable and legal IPTV provider to avoid potential legal issues and security risks.

3. VPN for Privacy

Using a VPN can help protect your privacy and bypass geographic restrictions. Ensure your VPN service is compatible with Firestick for seamless integration.

Conclusion

IPTV on Amazon Firestick offers a powerful and flexible way to access a wide variety of television content. By following the steps outlined above, you can set up an IPTV service on your Firestick and enjoy the benefits of on-demand viewing, high-quality streaming, and interactive features. As long as you have a reliable internet connection and choose a reputable IPTV provider, you can transform your Fire stick into a comprehensive entertainment hub.

Is There a Limit to How Much I Can Withdraw using Cash App Card?

Managing your finances efficiently often means understanding and optimising the limits set by financial tools like Cash App. One common concern among Cash App users is the ATM withdrawal limit. In this blog, we will explore how to increase Cash App ATM withdrawal limit, providing detailed steps and valuable tips to help you access more of your money when you need it.

Introduction

Cash App, a popular mobile payment service developed by Square Inc., has revolutionised the way people handle their money. From sending and receiving payments to investing in stocks and Bitcoin, Cash App offers a plethora of features. However, like most financial services, it imposes certain limits to ensure security and regulatory compliance. One such limit is the ATM withdrawal limit.

Standard withdrawal limits can sometimes feel restrictive for users who frequently need cash. This blog aims to guide you through the steps to increase your Cash App ATM withdrawal limit, enhancing your financial flexibility and convenience.

Understanding Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limits

Cash App sets ATM withdrawal limits to protect users and the service itself from fraud and unauthorized transactions. As of now, the default Cash App ATM withdrawal limit is:

$310 per transaction

$1,000 in 24 hours

$1,000 in 7 days

While these limits suffice for many users, others may require higher withdrawal amounts. Fortunately, there are ways to increase these limits by verifying your identity and understanding the factors that influence your Cash App account limits.

Steps to Increase Your Cash App ATM Withdrawal Limit

Step 1: Verify Your Identity

The first and most crucial step to increase Cash App ATM withdrawal limit is to verify your identity. Here's how you can do it:

Open Cash App: Launch the Cash App on your mobile device.

Access Your Profile: Tap on the profile icon located at the top right corner of the home screen.

Verify Personal Information: Select the "Personal" tab and enter your full legal name, date of birth, and the last four digits of your Social Security Number (SSN).

Submit Information: After entering your details, submit the information for verification. Cash App will review your submission, which typically takes a few minutes to a few days.

Once your identity is verified, Cash App will notify you, and your ATM withdrawal limits may increase.

Step 2: Link Your Bank Account and Debit Card

Linking your bank account and debit card to Cash App can also help in increasing your withdrawal limits. Follow these steps:

Navigate to the Banking Tab: Open Cash App and go to the "Banking" tab on the home screen.

Add a Bank Account: Select "Add a Bank" and enter your bank account details.

Link Your Debit Card: Similarly, you can link your debit card by selecting "Add Debit Card" and entering the necessary information.

Step 3: Increase Your Cash App Spending Limits

Increasing your overall Cash App spending limit can indirectly affect your ATM withdrawal limits. To do this, you need to verify your account fully, as outlined in the first step. Once verified, your spending limits will increase, and this can positively impact your ATM withdrawal limits.

Step 4: Use Direct Deposit

Setting up direct deposit with Cash App can also help in increasing your ATM withdrawal limits. When you receive direct deposits, especially from payroll, it indicates to Cash App that you have a consistent inflow of funds, thereby justifying higher withdrawal limits. Here's how to set up direct deposit:

Go to the Banking Tab: Open Cash App and navigate to the "Banking" tab.

Select Direct Deposit: Tap on "Direct Deposit" and follow the prompts to get your Cash App account and routing numbers.

Provide Information to Your Employer: To set up direct deposit, share your Cash App account and routing numbers with your employer or payroll provider.

Step 5: Maintain a Positive Transaction History

A positive transaction history can influence Cash App's decision to increase your withdrawal limits. Ensure that you maintain a good record by:

Making regular transactions.

Avoiding overdrafts or negative balances.

Ensuring all linked accounts are in good standing.
