Hey #PNWZone! We're looking to perform the Mastodon 4.3.0 upgrade on Friday, Oct 18th @ 5am. We expect there will be downtime during the upgrade process, so we appreciate your patience, but also hope you aren't online that early in the morning 😀

The Mastodon team released a big update to the world today. Here at #PNWZone, we will be upgrading our server in the next week or two. With this many changes in a single release, we like to lag just a tad behind to avoid any unforeseen issues that may be found out in the wild.
You can read about some of the upcoming changes here.

Can you link an example post that is doing that? The #PNWZone server currently caches remote images, but I only keep them locally for 7 days (soon to be 14 days). If they are deleted from the cache then my server will go back to the original post and request the image again. Outside of a little delay, that should work fine assuming the original image is still available for us to download and cache again.

I hope the ride went well! I met someone riding on light rail with their bike to meetup for this ride.

This saga isn't instilling the confidence that I need to move to Quantum Fiber! Did they have a reason/excuse?

You basically got it! Found this blog that talks a bit about the idea behind SilentSunday.
"...to share an image with little or no context (other than the alt-text for screen readers) and let the photograph or art have a quiet moment in an otherwise noisy social media stream."

thanks for this blog post! I’ve been waiting to migrate from my Centurylink setup until I had a good reason, but all I see is $75/mo on the Quantum website. How’d you get that magical $35/mo deal? Is that priced for life?

My #introduction.
I'm a tech geek at heart. I started programming on my Commodore Vic-20 when I was a wee lad. I've been in tech roles for my whole career.
My family and I moved to the Seattle area in 2015 and I've fallen in love with the #PNW. The beauty still amazes me - surrounded by all the water, mountains and greenery!
Like many, I recently stumbled upon the #fediverse and am interested to see where this will take us. I run the https://pnw.zone instance. See you out there!
