Welcome to working mastodon v3.5 on layer8.space with a less freaky database
Have fun tooting
The instance layer8.space is will go into maintenance for ~30min at around 22.30 CEST to sort out some problems with the v3.5 upgrade. Nothing major, but needs to be offline for that.
I will be doing some required maintainance at layer8.space tonight (24.12.2020) at around 23.00 CET
Should not take too long
Sooo .... layer8.space ist zum größten Teil wieder online
Bis morgen früh wird es wahrscheinlich Probleme mit Bildern geben, diese sollten sich dann aber von selbst lösen (da ist noch 'n Job am laufen)
----
So .. layer8.space is mostly online again.
Until tomorrow morning there problably will be some problems with random media objects because there's still a fixing job running (which takes forever)
💥💥 ACHTUNG 💥💥
In den letzten Tagen haben die Regeln dieser Instanz leicht geändert. Daher eine bitte an alle: Die Regeln erneut überfliegen.
Die einzige wirkliche Änderung ist die Bitte RTs von Twitter ab jetzt "unlisted" zu posten um auf der lokalen Timeline wieder mehr "echte" Posts zu sehen.
Crossposten von eigenen Posts ist natürlich weiterhin kein Problem.
Grüße
euer Instanz Admin
💥💥 NOTICE 💥💥
In the last couple of days the rules of this instance have slightly changed, please revisit them.
The most specific change is the policy for crossposting:
Please post content that's not yours (for example retweets) as unlisted. This should clear up the local timeline a bit for "real" content and conversation beween you (the users).
The general use of crossposters (set to public) for your own messages is absolutely no problem.
Greetz
your instance admin
I have to do some maintenance in the coming hours (probably from ~01:15 UTC+1)
It shouldn't be too long this time around ... (maybe ~1hour)
