@stephen Thanks a ton for those CSS changes! Those are now merged & deployed.

Put up this pull request on the merveilles-town fork: https://github.com/merveilles/merveilles-town/pull/544

This way, I'll be able to keep track of PRs in a much better way, without dealing with all the noise of every single update Dependabot pings us about.

Well then! I was going to post an expense report for the past month but the Simple bank login service is down D:

Regardless, I hope you all have a much better new year than 2020. Very excited to say goodbye to this shitshow of a year.

Nice, we're now officially on Mastodon v.3.3.0! (Though the indicator at the bottom says 3.3.2? weird!)

Anyways, enjoy all! Looks like we have a UI issue that needs adjusting with replies on the web client, but things seem to be running smoothly. Let me know if you see any issues!

Okay, I think I have things all set up for the Mastodon v3.3.0 upgrade, Merveilles! There should be no downtime, but there may be a few hiccups here and there. Our DB is backed up, the changes have been merged, so we should be ready to go in just a moment.

Cheers, y'all! :D

Hoo boy, it looks like the upgrade process to Mastodon v3.3.0 is a bit involved, so I'll have to take this one a bit slowly. There are some exciting features packed in here though! https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.3.0

This release includes these changes: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.2.2

Welcome to Mastodon v3.2.2, Merveilles! :D

Happy holidays, everyone! :3

Er, to clarify: Merveilles as The Town, on Mastodon, has officially been around for two years. The Merveilles group has been around for much longer, before I knew it existed. So cheers to the lovely folks hopping on IRC that really got this group started 🖤

Yooo I missed the actual day, but Merveilles has officially been around for over 2 years!!

Thanks for helping create such a lovely space, y'all :3

Ah, I found the image! It's hosted here: https://bookviewcafe.com/blog/2015/07/20/some-people-are-just-as-equal/

Heh, this little blurb by LeGuin is both cute and insightful: https://theanarchistlibrary.org/library/ursula-k-le-guin-some-people-are-just-as-equal-as-others

Though it references an image not included in that library, I wonder what that image is?

After navigating around, I found this little article that was amazingly helpful: https://www.cyberithub.com/how-to-delete-elasticsearch-unassigned-shards/

It even includes some commands you can run in order to see the status of your shards, which is nice!

Okay, update on the issue that just happened: looks like the "shards" that elasticsearch uses got stuck in a "recovered" state and were still trying to recover themselves even after they were removed. I guess whatever issue caused that also caused the logs to greatly inflate in size.

I ran a command to wipe those shards and start fresh, but I'm going to leave full-text search off until the index rebuilds. Thanks all!
