The maintenance has completed and everything is now running from our new database.
Thanks for your patience while we performed this migration.
Lemmy was running a bit slow on the new database due to too few slots in the pool.
I've increased and seems to be keeping up now.
Too few sluts in the pool, you say? That's awful, let me help!
jumps into the pool
There we go, that should help you out. You're welcome! 😋
(that's legitimately how I misread it at first [probably due to my cognitive issues/learning disabilities lol oops] and I couldn't pass up the perfect opportunity to make a silly, self-deprecating joke. I hope that's okay. I love this instance! 💖🤍💙)

See this is why you should take some time to dry off and read so others can get in.
Thank you Kaity A for all your hard work with this place! It means more than I can put into words! 🩵🩷🤍🩷🩵
You are super welcome, lovely.
It brings Ada and I a whole heap of pleasure running these instances and it's largely knowing that we're making a difference to our users, and providing a safe space for you all to grow and flourish that makes it all worth it for us.
It really is. I don't know where I'd be right now without this place. It's honestly my favorite place on the fediverse. I have other accounts, and intended this to be an alt, but it's turned into my main 😅
Is there a place I might figure out how to do the emojos? I forgot they were a thing.

Thanks!
It looks like it may not be supported yet on Sync for lemmy, which has been my exclusive method of lemmy-ing

For transparency and posterity the maintenance log is here: lemmy-2023-09-03
That was seamless
I wish everything I did on my server was this seamless
It seems like every time I touch it it gets new issues lol
Mines also a self hosted thing for self hosted stuff so it's far lower stakes
Idea for future maintenance page: The Community fire pizza gif but with Blahaj. :P
Thanks for posting a notice about planned downtime. It's nice to know it wont be because of a denial of service attack.
So I forgot about the custom enojos, any idea if there's a convenient way to get them for Sync for lemmy?
Cool! Thanks!
Best of luck
Server stuff is always nerve wracking in my experience
Right?! This is a routine thing, it should take 3 minutes with little to no interruptions.
2 hours later
WTF is going on?
Straight up the last time I tried to work on my server with what should have only taken at most an hour or 2, it ended up taking the entire day before I just had to roll it back and call it good enough.
Everything was being slow a while ago but everything's good now I think, good job everyone!
