I recommend all local users follow it to receive announcements of planned server outages (hopefully few and short) or issues that may affect them.

Remote follows are also fine.

Our media host, Jortage, just resolved a bug related to account archives. If you previously requested an account archive, and it did not complete, you may wish to try again now that the bug is fixed.

(Much thanks to @unascribed for her diligence in passing this along to us. I really need to set up a recurring donation...)

tootcat is back, finished with updates hopefully

taking tootcat down for updates soonish

we're going to be migrating all our media to jortage. media will disappear for a while during the migration!! don't panic, and bring a towel!

updates completed

restarting for updates soon(tm)

kiwifarms.cc, kiwifarms.net, kiwifarms.is

we are also now blocking the entire kiwifarms ip range (103.114.191.0/24)

new as of this update: in the web ui if you go to App settings -> General -> Layout options on a computer you can change it to mobile view which will now be the enhanced 3-column layout ported from upstream :)

we're back! there were some issues starting redis for a little while there, because i had just disabled ipv6 (it was misbehaving badly). this caused redis to be unable to start as it was trying to bind to an ipv6 loopback address. all fixed now!

gonna need to go down for upgrades in 5 mins

preemptively suspended develop.gab.com and gab.com. only develop.gab.com is currently hosting a mastodon instance, but there may be one in the future on gab.com
