Whatever update or change that just happened @chad turned off dark mode in my settings on the web interface. No big deal. #mstdnca
Also - congrats to our high scorers on our down page. 😉
I hope the mini-games helped! We'll keep and use this down page in the future.
So - I started work on moving our big database off of the cloud at around 11PM MST. It took some time to pull down that 450GB database, and it took a little longer than expected to restore that backup into our new database. As a result, our maintenance window was extended by three hours.
Once […]

Fam I'm realy excited about doing this tonight. As many know, it's been a long, long, long time coming.
This is going to save us hundreds of dollars a month and all indications say we're ready and prepared for this move.
Despite the […]
Hey #mstdnca Mastodonauts - we received our package yesterday afternoon, which I expected to contain two M.2 SSD drives.
I opened it this morning to find only one.
I've emailed the merchant, but obviously, this prevents us from moving the database until we have both. The database must be on a […]
As I continue to reflect on this incredibly terrible tragedy, I recognize that words really don't ever meet the moment.
Ultimately, I want to make sure that folk(x/s) know that there is a safe space here in our community and that the love extends to all members of our community - local and […]
SQL query for fetching count of remote URLs from the media attachments table with domain of "mastdn.ca". Returned count of 2923 on the TheCanadian.social instance.
@chad on #TheCanadian I'm seeing some 500 errors for media from some #mstdnca posts. Digging into it a bit more, the remote URLs are showing `cdn.mastdn.ca`. I'm seeing that mastdn.ca is a registered domain, but `cdn.mastdn.ca` isn't loading. Did y'all […]

Our first step is to find a dual NVMe PCI card, and the only AHCI-compatible one we can find is in Vancouver. @adam will pick it up and then send it to me here in Edmonton.
Huge props to him, and gosh - what an amazing team we have.

I've had a few questions via DM asking if @avilewis is legit, and I can confirm that this account belongs to his campaign.
We have made sure that @verified has their account verified.

Thanks @chad for your leadership and having the courage to ask for help!

Thanks to #mstdnca technical troubles, my feed for @AmeliasBrain has not been refreshing all day, and this post has been at the top of it each time I check.
And like, it's a good toot. Helps cancel out the frustration. Hoping the moss spirits […]
I've created an "All-Hands" Call on DIscord for this evening at 6pm MST. I'm hoping that anyone interested in participating in the technical aspects (and other areas) are able to join.

It's interesting to see that our latency drops off as the sun sets over Canada.
The instance comes back to what I normally expect.
I'm also wondering if someone has started using a very noisy application.

We've got a power outage in play. Working to mitigate. We might see an outage.
Thank you for your patience.

I think we've seen our first example of a psyop effort in the fedivese.
We have suspended the offending instance but we urge members to continue to report suspicious accounts so we can keep our community safe.

I've heard that packets traverse the internet faster because they don't want to get cold. (/s)
All the more reason to host out of Edmonton!
Soon, we'll be offering up our extra server space via a third party that will benefit the community. Stay tuned!

To my fellow #TheCanadian fedizens: I saw this post from our #mstdnca friends earlier and was inspired to generate our #wrapstodon reports a little earlier 🫡.
You should see a fun little post in your notifications for this 🤓. I've also updated the […]
My #Wrapstodon for 2025! FOr #mstdnca friends, you'll find the notification in your web app if not now, but very soon.
Canada is a great country, home to many friendly and hardworking people.
Before the pandemic, I had secured a job in Canada with a company that was willing to sponsor me, and I fully intended to become a Canadian citizen. But then the pandemic hit. Before I could complete my move, the borders […]
Hi folks, we just took a really devastating action - a.gup. Most know and love the valuable group sharing tool we have grown to know and love has been taken over by a domain squatter.
#mstdnca has sadly taken the action of suspending this domain.

Genuine concern about how the CBC is conducting their business, as they're paying for a third party to target people who are rightfully critical of their journalism, where it matters.
We will NOT be taking down this community member's post. There is no unauthorized […]

I'm aiming to rewrite the State of the Instance next week.
I'm occupied by Folk Fest this weekend and I'm not sure I can get into the writing headspace this weekend.
It's coming next week.
