So after we’ve extended the virtual cloud server twice, we’re at the max for the current configuration. And with this crazy growth (almost 12k users!!) even now the server is more and more reaching capacity.
Therefore I decided to order a dedicated server. Same one as used for mastodon.world.
So the bad news… we will need some downtime. Hopefully, not too much. I will prepare the new server, copy (rsync) stuff over, stop Lemmy, do last rsync and change the DNS. If all goes well it would take maybe 10 minutes downtime, 30 at most. (With mastodon.world it took 20 minutes, mainly because of a typo :-) )
For those who would like to donate, to cover server costs, you can do so at our OpenCollective or Patreon
Thanks!
All hail ruud
/u/ruud(does that work?) Oh I have to make an actual link?Oh and fuck spez.
@ruud@lemmy.world
Oh I see. Thanks.
Actually I don’t see… Do you just make a link?
You can manually make the link, or just start typing the “@ruud” part and you should get a drop-down with auto-complete options. Selecting one of the options will create the link for you.
It does have a small delay for the pop up to appear when typing.
Guess not. Anyone know how to tag users?
Agreed, fuck spez
