The fediverse is more alive than it ever has been. Over 200 of our Sidekiq workers are constantly busy working on jobs, even overnight.

It's beautiful to see the growth of the fediverse over these years.

Also, wir haben gestern ein Support-Ticket an unseren Hoster Hetzner geschickt. Die haben aber erst am Montag wieder auf.
Von daher können wir nur abwarten und hoffen, dass es jetzt erstmal läuft mit der aktuellen Konfiguration.
Ein paar Bilder fehlen hier und da. Das sehen wir auch.

'Nicole' just took an arrow to the knee. In what seems to be a somewhat persistent scam, 'Nicole' creates profiles at multiple instances, usually with poor moderation. Same PFP, same profile text and goes spamming others with discord links.

I went hunting and sniped a few. They won't be spamming anytime soon again :flan_molotov:

🚨 :warren_liberty: Exciting Announcement!! :warren_liberty: 🚨

Masto.NYC now has DONATION REWARDS!!!! For monthly donations of at least $5, we'll mail you a four-pack of our exclusive vinyl stickers!

👉 masto.nyc/give 👈

Not only is the art made locally, but the stickers are printed here too! We're very proud to offer these and hope you like them as much as we do 😍

As with all donations, these are tax deductible and help cover our costs.

:skull360: We have now successfully upgraded to v4.4.0-alpha.4+mementomods-2025-03-14 @mementomorisocial. This upgrade contains latest and newest version, including the security updates.

The branch is now synced and up-to-date and 66 changes ahead the last version which was v4.4.0-alpha.3+mementomods-2025-03-04.

We have enabled the new feature FETCH_REPLIES_ENABLED=true. This should greatly improve the fetching of new replies.

As usual, please tell me or our other admins about any strange things you may encounter with this Mastodon version. We're running bleeding edge after all.

I hope you enjoy your time here. Feel free to send me a message if you have anything in mind. :bunhdheart:

I'm looking to make a few minor changes to Mastodon using custom CSS, but I'm not sure how to target e.g. bgcolor for the light mode without impacting the dark mode. Anyone got any pointers? I can't find anything useful online.

entire day blown upgrading dialup.cafe to mastodon 4.2.x latest. the upgrade to 4.3 is an absolute nightmare of dependency hell, and proved impossible for my mac server

family favourites included charlock_holmes ruining everything for everyone

edit: if anyone runs into the now-infamous failure to install charlock_holmes, the solution is to manually edit Gemfile and replace its version#

gem 'charlock_holmes', '~> 0.7.9'

Trying to browse the #MastoAdmin hashtag because there was a new upgrade to see if anyone is having any issue with the upgrade or if it broke anything. Can't because everyone is using it to announce they upgraded. We need a new update tag, something like #mastoupdate for that

This is something various people have proposed in the past, esp a few months ago when there were several upgrades in a row after one upgrade broke systems.

It's hard to find out if admins are having problems with useless blabber. It's almost as bad as people who use the tag to talk to their end users.
