ISP and #Birdbutt finally back online!
ISP still down >v< #Birdbutt
If anyone’s wondering where I am or the instance..
mfw I can't even read my RSS feeds bc I selfhost that too and is also affected by the ISP outage >v<

First they send a text saying it'll be fixed by 9AM (3hrs from now) yet their site says 6PM (12hrs from now). #Birdbutt

Hope it's fixed sooner X>

Oh wonderful, ISP having another fiber outage in my area.
3hrs ago they went down it looks like, and they say it'll take 8hrs... hang tight #Birdbutt.com folks if you can see this / if you ask others and they've seen this too..

I'll be posting to the Telegram channel too w/updates on situation.

EDIT; This goal has been met- thank you SO much everyone!!!!

@artemist is there something going on with your instance?

For some reason sidekiq entries (for my main on birdbutt.com) list notifications being simply for/from mildlyfunctional.gay vs social.mildlyfunctional.gay.
And when I try to retrieve directly from social.mildlyfunctional.gay I get "503 Remote SSL certificate could not be verified"

Things appeared to be fine up thru Dec 2nd, then something must've changed and no longer able to retrieve/process notifications.

The 503 seems to be due to mildlyfunctional.gay using a cert that's only made for manehattan.artem.ist ?

#Rails folks, here's an open letter asking the Rails Core to cut ties with DHH and hard fork Rails to a new project with proper governance.

You can sign with a pull request. Let's show that there's demand for this, and that the community won't appease racists.
