I have been trying to get access to my feed for most of the day, and I am just getting timed out messages and no feeds. Anyone else part of this instance? Can you confirm if it is alive.
I really like calckey but the stability has me thinking about switching back to vanilla Mastodon.
@hellerphant Yea … seems something big went bad, like something on the VPS provider broke (see the admin’s alt here https://stop.voring.me/notes/9fplmm2ct2ijtu9n).
There’s a chance that there’s nothing they can do to fix their VPS provider or they’re trying to move to a new provider.
Additionally, seems that the brutal thing about going down on the fediverse for a long time is that once you’re back up the server has to “catch up” with everything.
Hmmmm. Now I am definitely starting to think it might be better to move back to standard Mastodon. A whole day gone with no ETA feels kinda bad. I know this kind of stuff can happen, but Calckey was already having some weird issues for me anyway, so I am a little scared away by it.
@hellerphant @maegul
I think the main issue is that calckey.social is used as a pre-prod testing ground to live-test “-dev” releases that are less stable than even “-rc” releases let even stable releases.
The question is can calckey.social be both cutting-edge highly updated arch-linux style and the flagship of calckey? I like the idea of pre-testing new features before everyone else, but a flagship should be stable. It’s hard to do both.
They also have growing pains.
