Apologies for the downtime on phpc.social this morning. Restarted services a little too early. We're good to go now (indexing ElasticSearch items in the background for the rest of the day but the site is functional otherwise).
In related news, phpc.social is now running Mastodon 4.4.1, hence it looking a bit different from before if you're using the web UI.
#MastoAdmin

Should we expect problems with custom themes (mostly just custom colors) when updating to the current Mastodon version? #MastoAdmin

#MastoAdmin
I'm wondering about setting ruby version for sidekiq. I run from a "live" subdir under a "mastodon" user. I update ruby according to ~mastodon/live/. ruby-version from git. It seems sidekiq is picking up its ruby version from ~mastodon/. ruby-version, which is obviously not automatically updated by git. Am I missing something?

Love appeals from bots I ban after 5 seconds appealing like "I've always followed your rules"
bro. you're pretending to be a roofing company from texas? go away.
#Mastodon #mastoadmin

phpc.social has been upgraded to mastodon 4.4.3, released about a half-hour ago. #mastoadmin

Looks like I have this to investigate now because a warning is appearing on my admin dashboard. Whatever the problem is seems to affect Elasticsearch 7.17.23 and Mastodon 4.4.2 , because this never appeared on Mastodon 4.3.x and the suggested command only returns this error:
[400] {"error":{"root_cause":[{"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"unknown setting [index.analysis] please check that any required plugins are installed, or check the breaking changes documentation for removed settings"}],"type":"illegal_argument_exception","reason":"unknown setting [index.analysis] please check that any required plugins are installed, or check the breaking changes documentation for removed settings"},"status":400}
#MastoAdmin

Oof. That upgrade was an adventure. #MastoAdmin #Mastodon

#mastoadmin #mastodonadmin note on v4.4.2
None.
YMMV

I think maybe it isn't #mastodon that is slowing down and filling up #footiMac.
It's the 700GB of webcam images/videos.
Just bought a fast dual USB A/C 500GB flash stick to offload this stuff and lighten things up a bit.
This is stuff I need to archive anyway. I want to gradually build a physical USB stick based digital library of webcam imagery from the cams @….

Mastodon doesn't seem to like the upgrade to Ubuntu 24. Does anyone have a good tutorial?
#MastoAdmin

phpc.social is now running Mastodon v4.4.2.

Auch ganz cool:
Die Organisatoren bieten eine API an, mit der die Entwickler von Fediverse-Apps/Clients die Info zum Event in ihre UI einbinden können:
#Canvas #canvas2025 #fediverseevents #fedidev #mastoadmin #mastodev

Ok #mastoadmin #selfhost #S3 aficionados. I don’t have any experience with object storage providers. I am looking to move my self-host mastodon account here from local storage on my 2007 #footimac to my account at leaseweb. Could you help me with the answers to their queries? I suggested, completely off the top of my head and without experience, i would need 1.5TB and low bandwidth. Not knowing if that makes any sense.
“ for a 1.5 TB provision with low bandwidth usage, we can provide an estimate once we have more context on access patterns, regions, and any specific requirements.”
Thanks for any help!
