@andrewstroehlein looks good for some of the links to me. Twitter won't work

@Luke_Drury very nice, and secured by the certificate which is how we should always have been doing verified accounts rather than tick icons assigned by some random employee

@Stephenkinsella @katiechapman @Luke_Drury Obviously :)

@Stephenkinsella @katiechapman it is possible that a split may happen. Maybe someone will set up #Munsterdon or something. There very well could be a viable GAA community to be started.

@Stephenkinsella @katiechapman I would imagine that is the first month up front of an extravagant amount of server power, yes. Seems fine on 10k users with a stream of signups, no idea where it would top out, but more users is more crowdfunders. People *will* pay to be the customer rather than the product.

@andrewstroehlein looks like it did it though.

@andrewstroehlein Mastodon has several processes, one of which is called sidekiq and that processes a queue of tasks that don't have to be done instantly - your verification request goes into that queue when you save your profile. It might take a little while and if it doesn't happen the process might not be running.

@Stephenkinsella @katiechapman hover over the annual budget, €518 is recurring it seems - which will cover some fairly serious server costs.
