Hey there folks, let’s have another friendly chat about calckey.social!

I’ve mentioned it before, but just to clarify, I’m not the one taking care of the nitty-gritty backend stuff of calckey.social - that’s all been the Herculean task of our superstar @kainoa.

They’ve really been giving it their all to keep the wheels of calckey.social turning. It’s not always been a walk in the park, though. Over the past few months, @kainoa has been tackling a few pesky database issues with determination and grit. Just last night, they stayed up all night working on a database migration, but as sometimes happens, things didn’t go quite as planned.

In light of this, I’d love it if we could all give @kainoa a bit of breathing room for the next few days. We’ve had some ups and downs with the uptime, and although it’s not ideal, it’s important to remember that @kainoa is volunteering their time and energy to this project. After their late-night coding marathon, they could really use a break.

So, where do we go from here, you might be asking? Well, I’m in the midst of linking up @kainoa with a few database whizzes who have some clever thoughts on how to sort out the key issues we’ve been facing. Fingers crossed, if things go well in the coming week, they’ll be working alongside @kainoa to fine-tune the system and get calckey.social back on steady ground.

For the time being, it would be a big help if we could steer clear of using calckey.social for any super important stuff. I’ve temporarily hit pause on new registrations, and won’t be dishing out any invite codes for a bit. We won’t have everything patched up in a day - it might take a tad longer than a week.

Above all, let’s remember to be gentle with @kainoa. This project is a true labor of love for them, and they deserve all the support we can give. Thanks for your understanding, and cheers to brighter days ahead for calckey.social!
