Minor Update: So yesterday we had to tweak some resources server side, despite fixing the 503 with more resources things were still a bit sluggish. We boosted a few more resources (expanded the cluster itself) and now the system seems quite responsive as well.

Please let @freemo know if you expiernce sluggish behavior or errors.

Only thing left to fix that is broken is some UI issues with links. Some of that will actually expose features that are technically working like editing in place and translation capabilities. So as long as nothing else is broken that is more pressing we should have that fixed up in short order and then we can start working on the next version again and get out of cleanup mode.

Not to worry, I just doubled our DB instance (memory, cpu and IOPS all doubled) so erverything will be super slow for a bit while it updated (no downtime).. hopefully on the other thing everything will be fast again. If not ill debug further.

@QOTO

So seems the upgrade went ok, a few small issues we should have fixed up pretty quick. Here are the broad points.

* This was our first big move over to an entirely new architecture meant for quick upgrades with no down time. Ironically this meant a 2 day down time but the advantage is future upgrades should have very minimal downtime now.

* We Did 5 upgrades in one go, lots of new features as a result, mostly all the new stuff from mastodon combined with the features QOTO already had.

* The new setup was having some 503 errors at first, and it was a out of memory issue. We have since significantly boosted our resources. The system is now much faster and responsive.

Some issues that remain, and when we will have it fixed:

* There are a few small UI issues, the link to your own profile points to the wrong link, and the "local timeline" link is missing to bring it up. We should have those back in place very shortly (probably a day or two).

* There were 503 issues periodically but it should now be fixed, please let me know if anyone sees a 503 again.

* Editing posts in place (instead of delete & edit) now works but it is missing from the menu, so we need to add that.

* Translation features should also be in place, but lacks the link.

If anyone notices any other issues message @freemo . In the meantime give us a day or two and we should have these small issues all resolved, thanks.

If you're wondering how things are going with the famous #DRM'd Polish trains, well, their manufacturer – #Newag – sued the hackers who had un-blocked them:

But weirdly, after months of implying and suggesting that the locking code was added to the software by the hackers themselves, in the lawsuit the company now insists they did not in fact modify the software installed on the trains.

Why? Because that would not mesh well with the copyright infringement claim. 🤡

As someone who likes to buy hardware and then run his own code on it I am always entertained by folk talking about how they protect their hardware against folk like me.
