Hey! Spent all day (technically night) fixing delayed feeds on mastodon.social and mastodon.online, both are back to normal now, I had to add more capacity. There's just so much more activity during peak hours, even with closed registrations! #devops

@Gargron I guessed you might be seeing some extra traffic when the registration emails werenโ€™t coming through! Thanks for all your work bud.

@goern @Gargron I would expect a lot more traffic from servers that have open registration ;-)

@Gargron Thank you for all the work you are doing to keep improving the Mastodon UX in general!

Today Iโ€™m noticing a definite speed lag, and Iโ€™m guessing a lot of it has to do with which server a user is signed up with. Would making a speed stat visible during the onboarding server selection process make sense, to balance the load? And/or be a useful selection factor for those of us who donโ€™t follow the server feed, and therefore donโ€™t otherwise care much which one theyโ€™re on?

Ryan Jessurun

@Gargron You're doing great work, but don't forget to watch your health. We Mastodon users can be patient.

@Gargron Hi, I was wondering what the difference / reason for the two different servers is? Apologies if this is covered somewhere I've missed ๐Ÿ˜„

๐Ÿ‡ณ๐Ÿ‡ฟ Liz, goldfish brain ๐Ÿ 

@Gargron really excited to explore. Seems to be some really cool functionality and feels way more real than the bird site โ˜บ๏ธ

@Gargron Thank you very much Eugen, system response is absolutely fantastic now

Allen

@Gargron You and the team are kicking ass! Thanks for going from 0-60 in 4 seconds to accommodate all of us newbies here. The servers are blaaaaazing fast today. Well done!

If you can add to the feature request list, please add a way to comment on boosts before sharing, in addition to just sharing the toot.

Play Ball!!! cafechatnoir

@Gargron Thank you! The transparency and responsiveness here has been great. Hope it calms down for you soon!

YurkshireLad

@Gargron thanks! That fixed my problem. I thought there was a problem with daylight savings time. Oops! ๐Ÿ˜€

Reido

@Gargron Sorry to add to the stack, but I assume you are aware that search across instances isn't working very well? Very hard to find people. Thanks for all your work!

Julian Lloyd-Potts

@Gargron great job. Hopefully people are understanding that the massive influx is going to slow things down.

Autisfanatic

@Gargron go to bed you must be exhausted! Lol

Tony Woodley

@Gargron is there a link in place to submit bugs if anyone spots them at all as I noticed that follower count only increases when you hit edit profile, and thanks for the hard work

Keiรพ ๐Ÿ”ญ

@Gargron Thank you for your efforts. Mastodon is getting a bit of a stress test.

DELETED

@Gargron I cannot post photos of any kind. Whatโ€™s going on with @mstdn.social?

ibikebrighton

@Gargron Thanks, it was definitely getting slow! Searches still seem to be taking a long time though... But I'm sure you'll be onto that soon.

Mary Ann Rennick

@Gargron I love that you created this and youโ€™re only 29 now. (Good grief, what have I been doing with my time?) Thank you for working all night. Hope you get some rest!

@Gargron Just joined this beautiful platform. Keep up the good work and I hope we get some regional servers from Dubai so we can build a creative and productive community alike.

apm77

@Gargron Well, normal might be an exaggeration given that the local and federated timelines still aren't working, but you gotta prioritise. The important functionality looks good. Thanks for your work. ๐Ÿ‘

@Gargron Thank you! I signed up as a patron when I realised that you were the admin of .online. Hope it helps, it's amazing work by all of you.

Dan van Moll :verified:

@Gargron Great to hear youโ€™re working on this! Still getting the offline messages and delayed updates ion mstdn.social.

Nelly Jane

@Gargron Thankyou ox much appreciated.. cause Iโ€™ve got no real idea how to do any of it YET .

Johnny Williams

@Gargron did you ever give any thought to having logged in users store their media, technically it would only be available when theyโ€™re online but it seems to be expensive for people running servers to store media.

MrJomo

@Gargron Thanks for all the hard work Eugen!
