Can we all agree that April Fool's day is cancelled for the foreseeable future? We already can't trust our eyes and ears.

For all the #Mastodon #selfhosting folks out there, any idea what I should be looking at as far as backoff timers or whatever from other instances coming back down, after something like a week of downtime? Several instances, most notably infosec.exchange, still haven't been sending me new messages, some 18 hours later.

I didn't even get one when I tagged myself in a new post - https://infosec.exchange/@north/116199899292856762 - until I searched for it¹. Any insight maybe, @jerry ?

Curiously, Threads and brid.gy started sending me messages within about 15 minutes of coming back online. That seems bad.

¹ at that point, it became a pull, not a push

Edit: A boost from the other side does not appear to have been correctly pushed.

@lowqualityfacts We all do it for Tim, if you don't think about it much.
It'll never stop being funny seeing an AI "actually, wait, nevermind" itself.
Lots of loss around accounts and statuses (most of which is going to be remote), but after some mucking about, only 1 record (sorry person from https://bsd.network/) from the follows table.
