I have ordered a more powerful machine for our database server from Hetzner last evening, but they still haven't provisioned it. It seems we're doomed to experience these processing delays until I can get my hands on more hardware. Sorry!

@Gargron Maybe we should think of a way for people to go somewhere else than _everybody_ on mastodon.social?

@manu @Gargron that might be hard to accomplish, for most new people the fediverse is either something they don't know about anyway or don't understand 🤷🏻‍♀️ And there are so many instances to choose from, it might overwhelm people who then just opt for the biggest/oldest...

@bumblebeedc @manu @Gargron My few cents:

1. I agree that mastodon.social should stay as a viable option for those who really can't decide for anything else. Otherwise some people might stay away simply because the can't decide.

2. Users of mastodon.social should pay (or pay more), so professional staff can be paid for the server hosting and moderation. If all depends on Eugen, the development of Mastodon suffers.

@marian @bumblebeedc @Gargron one way could be, that mastodon.social not always the first choice is.

@bumblebeedc @Gargron @manu I checked and it's not.
