I'm having some intermittent trouble with media after moving to Wasabi, and I'm having trouble tracking it down. In the meantime, if you're having issues here with mobile apps, try the Web interface—it handles missing media by giving remote media links instead. #MastoAdmin

We're now using Wasabi object storage for media! Thanks to @angristan for the excellent guide.

We had some trouble with statuses federating from https://rva.party to other instances over the last couple hours, mostly due to dwindling disk space. We're back for now, but I'm setting up an S3 service to try to address the underlying issue.

The Mod(5) @cm_kropot@mastodon.social

I wrote a small incident report about the #bot attack that happened earlier. :mastodon:

I hope it might help other instances and be useful to us next time this happens. I also think it's important to communicate with you about the issues affecting us. :breathe:

Thanks again to @Gargron and @CM_noelle for there help !

cheers

Mastodon directory is a popularity contest, and mastodon has historically worked hard to try to avoid adding features that promote that sort of thing.

For now at least, it won't be coming to https://rva.party.
