in your nginx config for mastodon add after the /api/v1/streaming block:

 location /api/v2/search {
    access_log off;
    try_files $uri @proxy;
  }

sanitize your logs:

sed -i '/\/api\/v2\/search\?/d' /var/log/nginx/access.log{,.?}`

y'all are the real heros, simply for surviving.

someday I will have money, power, or some measure of influence,
and I will do my inhuman best to uplift you in any and all meaningful ways.

See that white tree there amongst the green ones? I'm not certain, but I think it's an albino.

Like animals, some tress are born as albinos, devoid of pigments due to a genetic mutation. Without photosynthetic pigments, a tree cannot harvest energy from sunlight and normally wouldn't survive. But in a rainforest, any tree will be nurtured by the rest of its community, sharing resources through their roots. Even a tree unable to give anything back.

I found a slightly cheaper, but better, generator thanks to a friend on the fediverse!

If you have a suggestion for this, I'm all ears.
I just want to be able to survive.

9 days until my housing contract is up.
Still trying to make this work, please boost and share?

(fixed link, thanks for calling my attention to that)

The truck needs a bit of work, and so does the trailer.

With a 220v generator, I can fix both, and charge the RV batteries.

Help me get to $949?

hi holy hell we're back!!!! that was much smoother than expected, direct all issues to me at @kity thanks!!

hi friends, just letting you know we're gonna actually migrate over to the glitchsoc fork of mastodon (https://github.com/glitch-soc/mastodon)!!!

while this is a very exciting change and will bring many new features, chances are it won't be perfectly seamless and we might be down for a bit. @woozle is running a backup right now, so don't worry too much

after the update, i'll be around to help people get acquainted with the new features and take care of any bugs that might pop up <3

mew,
