Hello all! 👋
A few things to cover here.
First of all, I would like to thank all who donated for their generosity. I don’t know if I’ve said it before, but 100% of the donations are going directly to the hosting costs.
I believe I fixed the issues with federation (it was just a problem in my nginx configuration), so interoperability with mastodon should be working again. Sorry about that! I haven’t tested other software, such as friendica and kbin, but I’m hoping they should be working again too.
We’ve surpassed 2,000 users! 🎉 I love seeing the all engagement! Also, thank you for the reports as well, I would like to keep this instance safe & welcoming to all, and can’t do it without your help.
I’ve also noticed there’s a few servers that my e-mail server is not happy trying to send e-mails to. by default it’s set up to be fairly picky about the servers it connects to, and I’ve noticed that it’s refusing to deliver to some with self-signed or certs that don’t match the domain. I’ll be working on getting that resolved in the next few days too.
Last but not least, I’ve added @crb@lemmy.ca to help me out with some admin duties. Please give him a warm welcome! I plan on adding a third soon too.
As always, let me know if you have any questions, concerns, suggestions, or whatever.
yeah. i did some searching through the logs yesterday as well and didn’t find anything useful. hopefully it gets resolved at some point. i’ll also do a search through some of the lemmy rooms i’m in on matrix to see if anyone has any other ideas as well.
and yes, lemmy does have a queue of sorts for federation stuff. it’s not as visible as it is on mastodon though.
