We had some file system problems on our database host starting this morning around 6 CET. This lead to a read only filesystem, which we started to fix at 10 CET. We also used this downtime to do some reboots and some needed maintenance. So welcome back while we catch up what happened in the fediverse during our downtime. #mastoadmin

Looks like the problem is gone for over 24h now. Strange thing. #mastoadmin

You may have noticed that we blocked the instance gup.pe. This was a service providing fediverse group functionality. We blocked them because they lost their domain which is now hosting a spam site. To prevent any possible security risk this is causing we decided to block it. You can find more details here: https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips/115164282623836102

We are back online with the database from this morning 15.08.2025 at 05:20 CEST. Every local toot posted between this time and 13:45 CEST is lost so are the two registrations we saw today. Remote toots should catch up the next few hours.
The lost followings from our users to users from mastodon.social should be recovered in most cases. Sadly users from mastodon.social following our users are lost because the domain deletion process removes every existing relation between accounts. #mastoadmin

New post: State of the Instance 2024
tl;dr: Everything’s good, everything’s a lot of work, 2024 was pretty routine.

We are aware of reports that the "explore" tab is stuck, but currently we have no idea how to fix this. Needs more investigating. #mastoadmin
