We're adding mastodon.cloud to our #Fediblock list due to the instance seemingly being abandoned with open signups and zero moderation. The burden of us suspending accounts locally is not practical when the instance is out of date and not being maintained. It's been flagged since August last year - https://social.growyourown.services/@FediTips/115027342813989021 so I don't see it likely that anything is suddenly going to change. #MastodonAppUK #Universeodon #FediMedi #MastoAdmin

And apologies to the folks here on #MastodonAppUK and #Universeodon - This has broken a lot of follower / following relationships which I know is never ideal. This is a lot of the reason I've been reluctant up until now to suspend the instance but the amount of reports we keep getting for it and the fact it's running a very old version of Mastodon with no active admin account since Feb 2023 means I don't see a sensible way to stay federated now.

Just a quick note for #MastoAdmin 's using the #Universeodon Relay. The relay is one of the last things to get moved now onto our new infrastructure, I'm about to start making the configuration changes and DNS updates which will mean our new load balancer infrastructure will start to serve requests for the relay as well as finally supporting IPv6 properly. Later today I will then need to migrate the relay DB and config onto a new server so there will be a short outage later on to the relay while I do this.

I've just pushed a minor change to our infrastructure configuration for #MastodonAppUK and #Universeodon - I'm hoping this should fix some of the weird issues we've seen around IPv6 and it does mean that if our primary HAproxy server does go down for any reason the secondary server will take on the IPv6 connectivity as well. I do need to look and see if I can do something smart to cover some IPv6 monitoring as right now IPv6 can silently fail and the site will still show as fully healthy.

Sorry for the blip there on #Universeodon (And then on both sites). It looks like our DB for Universeodon filled up and monitoring despite being configured seemingly doesn't alert on a lot of stuff right now which I now need to take a look at. Our router also broke so DNS failed to resolve so I've had to give that a kick as well, we should be back up and running now :)

It looks like the connectivity issues between #Universeodon and #MastodonAppUK are at least in part due to SideKiq and IPv6. I've disabled IPv6 on SideKiq for the time being to at least let me try and get things back operational. For now though it's very much past my bedtime and I need sleep!

We're having some major issues this evening across #MastodonAppUK and #Universeodon due to connectivity issues with our primary gateway router at our data center. I'm waiting on some network monitoring info from our ISP but I'm starting to suspect this may be some sort of attack as I can't think of any other reason our router would be seemingly crashing regularly. It seems as if the device comes online for a few seconds and then drops back off the internet. Thankfully it doesn't seem to be actively impacting the sites themselves but our content processing is currently almost entirely offline due to issues with outbound connectivity.

We may be seeing some network related issues across #MastodonAppUK and #Universeodon I'm keeping an eye but our router is currently unresponsive. The status page will be updated should we actually see connectivity drops - https://status.atlas-media.co.uk

Just a note, we have added the following domains to our #Fediblock list across #MastodonAppUK #Universeodon and #MedMastodon

  • privacysafe.social
  • privacymatters.pro

Both domains have had more than a few recent reports which no action have been taken by the instances with relation to misinformation / anti-vax content and in the case of the second domain transphobia.

For #MastodonAppUK and #Universeodon folks - I think I've finally got the IPv6 connectivity working again, I need to do some digging to see what caused it to drop it's address in the first place and have a load of work to get the secondary haproxy instance aligned and sync'd with the first one but I'm hoping this should mean we're now fully operational again and everything should be working :)

Anyone else on #Universeodon having server issues? Requests timing out, unable to upload images, searches not working, etc? It’s been going on for weeks for me. #universeodonissues #UniverseodonHelp
