Bastet the Admin @bast@furries.world

@Kuschelpony I appreciate that, happy Yule and new year to you.

@Kuschelpony Sorry it takes so long for me to do anything. Im all alone running this, so have to get to it in between life.

@Kuschelpony it looks like during our down time, we were dropped by the relays. Ive sent application to reconnect to them. May take a bit.

Well, I had really hoped to make a furry home mastodon server, but between being the only person running it, which caused me to not see that it was offline because of life busy, and the lack of users coming to join it. I’m not sure if I should bother keeping it running.

Pondering this for a bit.

Honestly... I blame the pandemic.. its been hard enough, but this made it harder.

and its only coming around again thanks to the unvaccinated. 😠

Next step will be to upgrade the server software.

Ok, so we have been offline for two months because the remote files cache filled up the server hard drive.

I run this instance alone, and I didnt have the money to add more storage. Thanks to a generous user, weve upgrade the storage a little.

Assuming we get local users to make it worth while to run this instance, maybe we can keep it online.

I am looking into other ways to keep it online and keep the cost down.

@cutieslate sorry it took so long to approve you. I’m all by myself here :)

Sorry for the short downtime, we have upgrade to v3.3.0

We have re-opened registration, subject to approval before being able to post.

Since added a federation relay, our federated universe expanded greatly. Unfortunately, one of them is very heavy in media files and caused our system cache to fill the disk completely. We have taken steps to prevent this in the future, but in the process of fixing it, some cached media was lost, including Profile pictures and headers.

You may need to re-upload your profile images to the server.

Evening Everyone, we've just completed an upgrade to the latest Mastodon Version. Sorry for the short interruption.

@Kuschelpony Thanks! We hope to be. Everyone is welcome. Well, Except racists, bigots, pedos, zoophiles, transphobes, homephobes, etc.

@Kuschelpony It’s our pleasure, we hope you enjoy.
