Oh, wir sind dann mal kurz für ein Mastodon-Update weg. #mastoadmin

URGENT MASTODON HOSTING HELP NEEDED:

Mstdn.games is searching for a new hosting company after our host has not responded to technical help requests and the instance has been slowing and having technical issues for over a month. Auto payments have continued to be taken out.

If you know of anyone who could help with this, please contact me asap.

We are on Mastodon 4.5.5 with Elasticsearch.

Our database is 132 GB
Our media storage is 200 GB

Please help! #MastoAdmin #Admin

Edit: I’m located in Canada and prefer a Canadian or EU host.

Are you running a server on the Fediverse, either Mastodon or some other type?

Would you like it to be listed on the human-curated server directory at https://fedi.garden/fedi-gardens-full-server-list ?

Is it compatible with all seven points at https://fedi.garden/about-this-site ?

If the answer to all these is yes, please message my other account at:

➡️ @FediGarden

Let me know a little bit about your server in your message, or send a link to your About page 🙂

I've noticed lately that when viewing a profile from a Mastodon instance, their post history tends to be incomplete or otherwise missing. Any posts that are made recently tend to have a significant delay or don't show up on their profile at all.

I know that you can view the content from the remote instance in question for a complete profile, that you need to do so however does seem to be a failing on the part of the server software to properly federate and populate posts.

Mastodon server admins, important news!

The Mastodon developers are going to stop suggesting mastodon.social as a "default server".

Instead, the "default" server suggestions are going to be ones for a user's language and/or geographical location.

If your server matches these:

- General public server
- Running vanilla Mastodon
- Mastodon Covenant compliant
- Have existed for 1+ year
- Have shut-down & disaster plans

...then see this post for details: https://mastodon.social/@Mastodon/115989802617165343

Truth of the matter is that the current political climate has over time radicalized and eroded the patience we once had for each other. Leaving many to land on the conclusion that it may honestly be for the best to drop any pretenses of inclusion and equity in favor of tighter in groups that share more in common with you and thus less likely to challenge your beliefs.

Is #mstdnca having issues again? I am noticing my Sidekiq morgue is filling up again with their failed jobs... I know they just went through a DB migration recovery last weekend that took time to recover. #MastoAdmin @chad

If you run your own Mastodon server, it's really easy to add custom emoji to make it personalised. Here's a guide for admins on how to do it:

🌱 https://fedi.tips/using-custom-emoji-on-your-mastodon-server

People on other servers can see your custom emoji, but only you can use them (unless the other server adds the same custom emoji).

You can also clone emoji from other servers, and also block emoji if you see something unsuitable.

Habe die Webseite unserer Mastodon Instanz burningboard.net, auf der es viele nützliche Informationen zu Mastodon und dem Fediverse gibt, mal ein wenig überarbeitet:

- Neuere Bootstrap Version
- Optionaler Dark-Mode
- Allgemein den Code optimiert und konsistenter gemacht

https://meta.burningboard.net

Endlich brennt einem die Seite nicht mehr sofort die Augen aus dem Schädel 😂

Hey, Mastodon admins! Is there any documentation for the administration settings shown in the screenshot I've attached?

I understand that they will affect what the unauthenticated public can see when viewing content from my server, but what about from authenticated users on other instances? Will they affect what those users can see on my instance? I feel like I'm missing some context on what could happen if I change them.

Thanks!

Transparenz ist uns wichtig. Daher haben wir eine Übersicht erstellt, welche die Betriebskosten unserer Mastodon-Instanz aufschlüsselt.

Wichtig: Das ist kein Spendenaufruf! Wir möchten einfach nur offenlegen, was der Betrieb technisch und finanziell bedeutet.

They have also made lots of other useful tutorial videos about hosting your own Fediverse server:
