Good morning
@Gargron Morning! Hope the new servers are working out for you. What's on the books for you/Mastodon today?
@TomEtty There's still room for improvement - I split database and app servers, but real performance improvement would come from adding more app servers
@Gargron @TomEtty For my understanding, adding more app servers won't fragment the community? All users and load will just distribute but timelines will be visible everywhere? (If you don't create a separate domain).
@Steeph @TomEtty Yeah. There'll still be one database, just some load balancing between the frontends to serve more users simultaneously
@Gargron @TomEtty Okay. Are there some instructions on how to do this?
I'll try to find some folks to finance an extra server for a year.
@Steeph @Gargron @TomEtty put me up for a tenner! Ok, maybe even more. Feels like a save bet tbh :)
@tasmijn @TomEtty @Steeph I'm in as well! Or is it better to send funds straight to @Gargron?
@tasmijn @Gargron @TomEtty @Steeph Both! is, of course, the right answer. ;)
@tasmijn @simeon @Gargron @TomEtty Yep, did that yesterday :-)
But still, an extra server would be great as well.
@Steeph @Gargron @TomEtty @simeon absolutely! (wouldnt a standard option between 1 and 10 dollar per month be a great addition btw? :))
@tasmijn @Steeph @Gargron @TomEtty Yes, something with a laptop sticker. ;)
