Mastodawn

I’m late, but be sure to #hugyouradmin. They do a lot of work to keep our servers clean and free of… whatever the hell is going on right now.

Dear fedi, #HugYourAdmin today.

There apparently is an on-going bot campaign that is creating performance issues on many instances.

My home instance was down for a bit, there are others that are having hiccups. Admins are dealing with this, and they will deal with it eventually. They always do.

In the meantime, if your instance is down, be patient. And if your instance is up, send hugs to your admin. 👍

@JustinDerrick @chad I really appreciate the amount of time and energy you and the other admins are putting into this. It just occurred to me this whole Mastodon thing reminds me of my FidoNey days. Back then we had regular in person meet-ups of SysOps and points (people with a ‘mail address at a FidoNet BBS). We knew each other and what it took to keep the infrastructure running. #hugyouradmin
