@Gargron
There needs to be an instance specifically for musicians in general - on joinmastodon.org there are 2 music-related instances but one is for collectors and the other just metal-heads...

This kind of success is as exciting as it is terrifying. Nobody prepares you for this. Every moment I am second guessing if Iโ€™m doing everything I can with the given situation.

@Gargron IMO that just means you're doing something right.

@Gargron you're doing great with the flood. Thank you!

@Gargron Thank you and everyone else who's worked on this so very much though. It is a relief to so many people.

Matti Jรคrvinen

@Gargron thanks to this project people have options. ๐Ÿ‘

The onboarding experience is quite rough on the appside when the toots are empty and you follow no-one.

Local & Federated views would help a lot in this regard.

@Gargron Thank you for your work. You're doing a great job.

Tired but ambitious

@Gargron congrats on the massive influx of new users! Hoping to be a contributor in the near future.

@Gargron Thanks for everything you're doing, Eugen.

@Gargron Really appreciate your dedication but do make sure you take care of yourself.

@Gargron You're doing great! Thanks for the effort.

@Gargron Only so many priorities one can manage within a given timeframe and it seems you're doing awesome. Thank you!

@Gargron Youโ€™re doing great. Youโ€™ve got this. Thank you!

Blake Reilly | Ekyllier

@Gargron mate, just keep doing whatever you're doing. Mastodon is popping off rn

MissingANNo

@Gargron you do what you can and let the community help pick up the slack. This shows you and the community behind Mastodon have a good project for others to turn to.

Dred

@Gargron this is historic! We are all very excited about this and thankful for all the hard work to make this possible! :]

benedict :psyduck:

@Gargron Iโ€™m more than happy weathering the storm of growing pains if people like you are as hardworking as you seem to be! More people are rooting for you than not!

Gomphotherium

@gargron You are doing a great job! I imagine it to be a mix of huge happiness/exitement but with anxiousness. This must be hard and will ease in some time I think. You will look back proudly!
I appreciate your work and the work of the other admins!

@Gargron You're doing great! ๐Ÿ‘
Thank you for all your hard work!

@Gargron DONT forget to enjoy it even though there is stress.

@Gargron One thing I'd appreciate is updating the translations on joinmastodon.org ... People are translating it but it's not getting pushed to the live site.

Chloeg

@Gargron Thank you so much for all the work youโ€™ve put in on this. When things move really quickly and you donโ€™t know if youโ€™re doing the right thing, be guided by your own principals. Sometimes your brain has to ask your heart โ€œis this the right thing to do?โ€ And be guided by what feels right. Youโ€™ll be good.

@Gargron Are you publishing traffic stats anywhere? Would be fascinating to see the ebbs and flows!

@Gargron you're doing great, everything works.

@Gargron i think the most of the bird-site-refugees would love a mastodon-fail-whale variety every now and then.... So no sweat!

@Gargron Thank you for this ๐Ÿ™ beautiful platform, please don't sell it to the highest bidding billionaires...

@Gargron Hang in there. This must be very stressful but you made it happen so far.

MelvinPhaser

@Gargron Looking forward to great stuff happening to this platform in the future!

oldjinx

@Gargron Your doing fine, nothings on fire and everyone's enjoying themselves.

activenode

@Gargron I can relate. When I was younger I had a music streaming service called StreamDrag. It was cool, had a few thousand users.

Then mashable.com featured it. And I wasn't prepared for it.

And back then there was no K8s or whatever to drag a slider for more power.

I can relate :)

But apparently, at this moment, everythings working fine.

Maria Liv

@Gargron I am sure your doing a great job. I have a wish though.

Is it possible to close out the Russian bots from this platform? Or better yet, all bots? Because the angry hateful bot comments and stalkers was a really painful experience on Twitter.

If Mastodon could be a lighter place for us who didn't like the dark side of Twitter, I think it would be awesome. Thank you so much! ๐Ÿ’—

@Gargron I originally signed up in 2019, but forgot about it since then. It is quieter here than on the bird app, but over the last couple of days there has been enough activity that it's engaging and makes me come back. I guess that is a key threshold for most users. As a developer, I'm very interested to see how this will scale. Fingers crossed!

@Gargron by all the hard Work you do to keep up with the #Demand, there is still a #Question waiting to be properly Answered:

How can the #Network of #Mastodon assure and future proof that the next big #Rush of new People will be better directed, to a broader range of multiple Instance instead of One or just a few? ๐Ÿค”

Just a first simple Idea as a Solution:
joinmastodon.org/ should be more visible in the #SERPS and the list of Instances on top and sort different. ๐Ÿ™„

@Gargron
You are doimg a great thing. My only advice is to stay true to yourself and your core values. I saw too many people changed because of success in a wrong way.
Rooting for you.

duck

@Gargron two things.
- You're doing fine, and if anyone complains, they can shove it, since it's all for free.
- Previously, you'd said no donations yet. How about now?

@Gargron If you demanded one Tenochtitlan-style sacrifice per post, youโ€™d still be the sanest microblogging mogul in the news.

@Gargron @janboehm so far the slowness has been kind of charming
