@lightweight@mastodon.nzoss.nzCool - managed to move one of my Uptime Kumas from Sqlite3 to MariaDB... and I created 2 additional instances so I could split up my concerns among the responsible entities (relevant companies/communities). It's impressive software, though I think it'd be cool if it supported user accounts (currently there's just scope for a single account on each instance). That's being explored...

@davidaugust@mastodon.onlineLikely violating the UN Charter (article 2(4), article 51) and the UN Convention on the Law of the Sea (article 88, article 90), and possibly the Geneva Conventions, Additional Protocol I as well, the United States killed 87 Iranian sailors over 1,000 miles from Iran.

@cyrevolt@mastodon.socialTake a deep breath now.
In theory, the #Fediverse is federated.
It's in the name.

Reality differs: It's a loose collection of nodes, with partially disjoint subgraphs, some connections unidirectional.
For a multitude of reasons, some instances choose to defederate others. Some deliberately block a l…

@mgorny@social.treehouse.systemsSince my job is stable now and I have saved up some money, I have decided to stop accepting donations via GitHub Sponsors and Ko-fi. I would like to thank everyone who helped me over the years. There are people who need the help much more than me right now.
If you needed a suggestion, @… is doing a lot more than me for #Gentoo these days and will certainly appreciate your help. He's also way nicer than I'll ever be.

https://ko-fi.com/thesamesam
To the best of my knowledge, Gentoo project does not need extra money right now, but there are other awesome projects such as Disroot or many Fediverse instances that would definitely use some help. However, in general I'd suggest towards supporting individuals rather than projects: people need money to live, and can use your donations directly, while projects are often bound by red tape.
Finally, please support human artists and craftspeople (and I'm counting human software developers in that). Donate to projects and people who resist enshittification and who refuse to use LLMs. They need the money.
Once again, thanks for all.
@cdarwin@c.imDespite the small team size,
Mastodon operates two large, production Mastodon instances:
mastodon.social
Runs on Kubernetes with autoscaling between 9 and 15 nodes (16 cores, 64 GB RAM each). Web frontend scale between 5 and 20 pods, while various Sidekiq worker pools scale between 10 and 40 pods. On average, mastodon.social has 70–80 pods running at any given time. This platform handles up to 300,000 active users per day and approximately 10 million requests per minute.

@bird@birdbox.partyIn the past few weeks there has been a bot farm hammering small Mastodon instances with requests for what looks like emoji-related assets and the hashtag API.
More specifically, it appears this bot farm has now come for my Mastodon instance, because the number of requests has doubled in the last 24 hours, with a lot of the requests being API requests for a single JSON file.
Even more specifically, looking at data provided by my CDN provider, a lot of the bots appear to be using IP addresses associated with Tencent Singapore.

@luana@wetdry.worldSo, with the Discord thing rn I guess teh closest we have to an alternative is like Zulip? Except it's more self-hosted focused.
So, is anyone around here hosting a Zulip (or other real, feature-complete, discord alternative that I don't know yet) instance open to (or even better, focused on) small-ish kink communities?
I have some friends on discord that I really wanted to migrate somewhere else.
I thought about hosting one in my NAS, but even if cgnat wasn't a thing actively moderating porn-focused places seems like a nightmare so I'd want something hosted by someone with a bit more experience on that such as moderating fedi servers or something. I guess some people who host fedi instances probably also host chat rooms right?
