"One of the biggest holidays per capita."
Not "The biggest". :blobcatcoffee:

 @ZacBelado I believe in having a holiday be a holiday. Just because maintaining a U.S.-based Mastodon instance (more in the US than anywhere btw) is not a "real job", doesn't mean it isn't an interruption to festivities with that two-day warning. It would be a kindness to check the national holiday chart of the top 5 countries where servers are operated, just saying.  @shanie @ZacBelado It’s an update for a major security flaw. I prefer to get it as soon as it has been tested properly, regardless of other people’s holiday plans. Updating a mastodon instance of moderate size is quite easy and updating a small instance in docker is just a ridiculously simple and quick task. Just set away time for an extended bathroom break with a tablet. @chris @ZacBelado Honestly, if it were urgent, they would have released it immediately as they have in the past. If it's not a known ITW attack, it can wait for a holiday. |
@shanie @MastodonEngineering I can't see that a US holiday is a reason to not release a security update.
