@lardmotel that is a great idea to be an aggregate of various sites and what that means to you is that your home is still on mastodon.sdf.org and you don't have to do anything as long as openvibe succeeds.
It seems that once again we have the critical mass we saw in a surge in the Fall of 2022 to create a viable distributed social network. Welcome to everyone who is #new and thank you to those who have returned! You are helping to build the #fediverse and we will build it together! #x#twitter#birdsite#exodus
We will be doing maintenance on the database tonight beginning at 11pm Pacific time to improve performance. During that time you'll see a message regarding the downtime and we'll promise any backlog into very early Sunday morning. Thank you for the support and for being here!
Last night's maintenance went very well, thank you for your patience. The main issue is indeed a surge of traffic across the fediverse with other instances, not just ours, experiencing a backlog which has caused slowness and timeouts. We had spare equipment on hand to spin up and it seems we're doing better now but we will continue to monitor the queues and support this positive growth of the fediverse.
Welcome to Mastodon v4.1.20. This release fixes a caching bug. Timelines are being rebuilt now and we're adding another server today to assist with the new Twitter / X-exodous which started on Tuesday.
