Mastodawn

Wake up, babe. There's security updates for mastodon and lemmy waiting for you.

I've updated our installs. I now await the completely rational and unemotional reactions of 16000 people across 5 instances on the new changes to the software.

@andrew There are, in fact, 12 others. They are running mbin, peertube, pixelfed, writefreely, akkoma, iceshrimp, synapse, and probably some i've forgotten because I'm old

@jerry Oh, your servers. I thought you meant mastodon instances in total (a small ecosystem of nerdy social media users... like modern usenet.)

@andrew 🫣

@andrew @jerry "average person maintains 1 fediverse instance" just a statistical error. The average person maintains 0 fediverse instances. Fediverse Jerry, who lives in an orchid field & maintains over 16 instances is an outlier and should not have been counted.
