Good morning friends, this server is once again suffering under a heavy load of traffic and I am once again working on making it work better. Please be patient 
It took 10 hours but the timelines finally caught up. @Claire and I identified a few performance issues that only become evident once there's a ton of activity.
I can't believe @janboehm actually signed up in the meantime. Hi! I like your music! Sorry the website was slow today.

Please repost this, or you can also reply and write your instance address.

Newcomer, a lot of instances you can join on. The main server is currently slow because a lot of new user registration.

Mastodon Hosting

'Free' social network like Facebook isn't free - you pay by giving up your privacy and valuable personal data. That’s expensive. We don’t sell ads, or invade your privacy!

@rohmatsb @Gargron @janboehm I have just started to use Mastodon, and I am curious why there are a lot of different networks. I think breaking down the users lowers the chance of growing, and as a new user, it makes people confused, I was confused too and today I just said ok, I will write in the biggest network.

@Amino @Gargron @janboehm it's not limiting the growing of network. You see, i'm writing this from "toot.io" instances. But i can still get in touch with you that signing up on "mastodon.social".

But yes, agree, it's confusing for new user.

@Amino @Gargron @janboehm i'm sorry i mean "mastodon.online".
@rohmatsb @Gargron @janboehm let’s say that I wrote something in Mastodon. social, will you see it here?
@Amino @Gargron @janboehm yes, every server is connected.
@rohmatsb @Gargron @janboehm great, I started to read an article about Mastodon to reduce my confusion😀
@Amino @Gargron @janboehm as long as you set the post privacy to "public"
