@mgwelch yep, only on Mastodon.social.
Should come out in v2.6.0
@aral

@mike Ah! Gotcha, I was also testing to see if I could get it to work.

Thank you so much for letting us know.

We need to wait for v2.6.0 to be released.

@uranther

@aral can you link me a profile that shows that green validated goodness? :) @uranther

@aral 👋 I have no idea but how are you validating to say that it is not working?

@uranther

@max thanks for letting us know. If you manage to catch the JS console, please share it. Are you using Firefox too?

@frank

@frank yep, extensions was something else that also crossed my mind. Do let me know if you find anything

@frank no, that URL looks fine to me. It's the end URL when you are logged in.

@frank The strange thing is that you are the only one reporting this out of hundreds of instances thousands of users I host and that share exactly the same setup. So, my first suspicion is your setup.
Do you think it's possible that you lose internet connection and then reconnect, when that happens?
Is there any why you could try accessing with another browser for a couple of days to see if it happens.

@frank Thanks, the only error I see in your logs is "method=POST path=/inbox format=html controller=ActivityPub::InboxesController action=create status=500 error='TypeError: no implicit conversion of nil into String'"
I have no idea if it is related or not.
I also found this https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/issues/7622 that it could be somehow related.

@frank ok, thanks. Please do let me know.

@frank That's really strange and it shouldn't be happening.

I restarted the services for your instance just in case something got stuck.

Let me know if it happens again.

BTW: what browser + OS are you using?

@Taris Great!

@alienlebarge Great :) You're welcome

@alienlebarge OK! I changed your instance to not use CDN for media files. When you can please have a look and let me know if the issue is solved. Thanks.

There was a software upgrade in the OVH data center where Masto.host shared hosting is installed that caused about 5 minutes of downtime around 1:50 am (GMT).

@Cobalt don’t really have a plan for it. Also Glitch.soc is a development fork and it could be tricky to offer a service against a development fork.
Currently I am still really focused on building the infrastructure and improving the service before I can even think about offering other forks.

@mjog I have plans setup where you can go way over the plan limits. So, your instance will not be throttled unless you are way above the limit.
Still, even if you were to hit that limit the messages would only be delayed.
Less than 1% of instances that I host had to upgrade due to low volume limits but it does occasionally happen when I notice that an instance is causing too much stress on the server.

@mjog Hello, sure you can migrate in and out of Masto.host whenever you want. Your instance data is yours and you can take it out whenever you want.

As for pixelfed, currently I am still working on getting Mastodon right and I want to maintain my focus there. In the future maybe I can provide other hosting services but no short term plans for that.

@skynebula Currently, you can export/import the list of people you follow + block + silence.

That is what comes default with Mastodon, don't know if a tool exists that will allow you to import toots via the API but still you would just be doing a copy of the content, not the interactions.

@mcpaccard @Liut @aral

@alienlebarge well, if you want we can try some stuff to bypass this but I will have to change your setup, do you want me to try it?
