Hey guys,

Sorry about the absence, have been super busy with life, other projects and the nightmare of buying a flat lol.

Instance should be updated to 0.18.3, as some of you have noticed the website has been periodically down the last few weeks (at most by half an hour at a time) will keep monitoring the uptime after this update but hopefully this partially fixes it

Thanks Tom - appreciate your efforts as this is fast becoming my favourite corner of the internet. Hope your flat purchase goes well.

Thanks for setting up and maintaining this instance for us all :)

Thank you! Noticing the Hot feed is no longer useless!

Hope the flat went ok. The system is such a pain

Usually the sort by hot fixes itself after a server reboot and then breaks again after a few hours. Does anyone happen to know if it's fixed this time?

[–] smeeps@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

I heard from other instances that 18.3 has improvements for it.

Cheers boss man! Buying property is an absolute ballache, good luck!

v0.18.3 has been very stable on my instance and much better performance :)

Thank you for your hard work Tom during this difficult time. 😁

I noticed @tom is the only mod here. Any plans of changing that?

If something happens to @tom lots of people rely on this great instance and it would be great for a contingency plan

Ah, back to having my social media life administered by a guy called Tom. We've come full circle. 😁

I was in your shoes last year, I think I still have PTSD from the process.

Did we lose the favicon in the update?

[–] Emperor@feddit.uk 2 points 2 years ago

Looks like it's back.
