Someone recently suggested I should look into grants for funding independent tech projects run by Black folks, but I know nothing about that world.

And recs?

uh oh we accidentally moved back to normal mastodon, this can't be good

why do these projects always have broken lockfiles.. you had one job

woo mastodon media all copied over!

we're now on glitch-soc, went pretty smoothly all things considered!

weirdly enough i'm actually getting better at phone calls i think

media still a bit fucked (and also not entirely transferred) but we're kind of back?

taking down social.pixie.town shortly, moving everything over to the other server

estimated downtime is at least 2 hours, because the old media is on a hdd and there's billions of files :<

Does anyone have any good OUTSIDE resources about Trigger Warnings and Content Warnings, but super bonus if it talks about Content Notes too?

Looking for an article.

seems I woke up in time so 9:30 is expected maintenance window start (in 1hr 30)

.town planned maintenance for Thursday morning (sleep schedule pending),

Going to replace a disk for a new 1TB ssd, which will cause Matrix downtime (and some performance degradation while it mirrors over)

After which I will take down Mastodon (still on the old server) and migrate it over. Estimated downtime is 2+ hours because there's lots of media even after pruning. We'll also switch to glitch-soc so expect a bunch of cool new features!
