@jamierocks no it's just the mastodon instance
cybre.space end of life update; tldr delayed to jan 1
some users have had issues exporting their account backup archives, so to make sure i can communicate with users until all issues are resolved i will be delaying the read-only phase of the cybre.space end of life to january 1st, 2023. (also because there's a lot going on in my life right now and i want to make sure i can respond promptly to issues that might arise)
to be clear: you will still be able to export backups after the site goes read only. i just want to make sure people have a way to reach me if they encounter problems.

@niconiconi @nightpool we have a known issue with exporting archives, i will try and have it resolved by the time the site goes read only
@nonphatic whenever i end up pushing the button, which will be on or after that time
@jollysea the cybre.space modifications will continue to be available indefinitely at https://cybre.tech/cybrespace/mastodon
patreon details re: the mastodon instance at cybre.space is retiring
i am shutting down the patreon effective immediately, thank you all for your support over the years, from the bottom of my heart, you've made it possible to run the instance and for that i'm eternally grateful
the mastodon instance at cybre.space is retiring
for a lot of reasons, both personal and practical, i don't think i can effectively run a public mastodon instance any more, and i need to retire cybre.space. i want to do this responsibly and make sure everyone has a chance to migrate and export properly, so here is the plan for the instance retirement (feel free to share this link around): https://cybre.space/~chr/cybre-space-eol
due to ongoing moderation load issues and understaffing, between now and 1 november, the instance may be undermoderated. for other instances, if this poses an issue for you, i encourage you to use federation tools at your discretion. i would only ask that you be clear and public about your decisions so that cybre.space users can figure out where they will be able to migrate their accounts.
thank you
@nleigh i should probably update that, it's a bit higher than that nowadays

@violet god, this sucks. added all those domains to our blocklist
@violet @nightpool sorry, not at my desktop much these days, ive cropped and resized it a bit to fit the size requirement and namespaced the shortcode since there's a few other :violet: options out there, so you should be able to use it as :violet_cybrespace:
@Alamantus @nightpool looked into this. i added the header to our media CDN configuration and it looks like audio is playable now. thanks for the heads up.
@OberstKrueger if it wasn't corrected shortly after the fix, it probably won't be corrected, but missing posts can still be fetched by loading threads that they may have been a part of and pasting direct URLs into the search bar
mastodon administration, technical details
if you run mastodon on ubuntu or debian with jemalloc and you notice sidekiq crashing frequently, it may be related to this issue with FFI: https://github.com/mastodon/mastodon/issues/15751
the fix in our case was to add LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libjemalloc.so to the systemd unit files, so that all native (non-ruby) code could use the same memory allocation system
