Attention #mastoadmin types! https://ourselves.space and all related internal services will be going offline for a few minutes for an upgrade! #mastodon compat services impacted. #peertube #bookwyrm #pixelfed #writefreely services unaffected.
@danielmrose - want to continue tinkering with it, or should I go ahead and disable? I wish there were a better mechansim for searches. Granted, the only "blocker" here is when people search you by name - (user)(at)(domain.com). The rest of the ecosystem works fine, ie, people can follow you, they just will see your service domain in your username instead of your domain. :(
@danielmrose Yeah, those are pretty standard items, but unfortunately not quite what we’re looking for. Perhaps write.as has a feature to override the .well-known endpoints? I suspect not since write.as is ALSO a fediverse endpoint.
@danielmrose Ahhh - yes, that makes good sense. Fingers crossed they have some sort of redirect option!
@danielmrose OOOOooooo - so, funny story - Wordpress has built in mastodon compatibility now. Are you familiar with that solution and would it meet your needs?
@danielmrose By chance do you have the ability to set a DNS redirect (not a CNAME) at your domain provider?
Today, for the first time in several months, we had to upgrade the infrastructure at https://ourselves.space! (that's a good thing!) We're continuing to see small but steady growth across all of the platform ecosystems. Our #fediverse endpoints include #peertube, #writefreely, #mastodon (compatible), #pixelfed, and #bookwrym. We're small, moderated, and you can bring your own domain (to the mastodon endpoint) for a small monthly fee. Check us out at https://ourselves.space for more!
@danielmrose - if you're interested in trying it out, I'd love to work with you on it. No charge till we get it working and that will help our future clients in similar situation! I've been looking for a volunteer to break the need for the .well-known thing for a while. Holler if you like!
@danielmrose Shouldn’t matter - as long as you have control of the domain and can set a file on /.well-known/… should be good. There’s alternatives if we need if that’s not an option, just a bit more complicated.
@danielmrose Nope, no subdomain needed, we just stick a small file in the .well-known location.
Yes, I am talking to you on Mona right now :)
No followers move supported still (sad), but we can import users via standard tools.
Been hearing whispers all weekend, some from people who I'd *definitely* listen to, of a remote execution 0day in the Signal desktop and possibly also mobile app. Mitigation is supposedly to disable link previews (under settings->chats).
I have no more details. What I've heard doesn't completely make sense, but disabling link previews should be at worst harmless and seems prudent until this is clarified.
Sorry - I meant mastondon.world! (sheepish grin) - but mastodon.online is welcome too! :)

@VModifiedMind The Cloudflare site proxy settings were overriding the A records that we’d set, which was expected, however, we couldn’t change them because of an account issue that had to be tweaked. Not too technically interesting, but the lesson for us there was that we need additional redundancy on the upstream side of the network.
We’re back! My deepest apologies to my #news #newsies #newstodon #journalist #journalism friends. We're looking in to what we can do better to make sure that's a smoother ride next time DNS goes sideways. https://verifiedjournalist.org resumes!
We’re continuing to reach out to Cloudflare to get an update as to what the issue is. We’d rotate off the nameservers, but they can only be changed once every 24 hours. Apologies and please do bear with us. #News #newsies #newstodon #journalist #journalism
It’s ALWAYS DNS. Standing by for the matrix to unglitch
Just an FYI, there’s a DNS propagation issue in flight for our #newsies #newstodon with verifiedjournalist.org. Please stand by while we reticulate the splines.
Whoopsie! verifiedjournalist.org is having a moment. Please stand by.
