Yes it was doing that about 20 minutes ago, and it is not doing it now. I've also refreshed, but, it stopped doing that before I refreshed.
It has mostly been little black messages saying not to post for a certain number of minutes until a specified time - I don't remember the exact wording. It has been doing this off and on most days for the last few weeks. I first noticed it a few times around new year.
I followed directions and didn't post until the specified time.
I'm new to mastodon, so I don't know what is standard, but we appear to be getting some kind of cryptic error messages.
They are small black windows w numbers & they fill the entire left side of my laptop screen top to bottom when I'm on mstdn.party but not on any other site. Sometimes they are numbers & sometimes they are messages saying not to post until a specified time 5 or 10 min later.
I'm new here so I don't know the significance, but it does not appear normal.
@trendless
THANK YOU for taking the time to list the steps, plus with the link! I appreciate it!
I have very limited time and so it is hard to get through the transition.
Thank you! 😄

Dangerous. We need to keep our eyes open for more like this.
I've seen several posts about Twitter's API changes harming public interest projects and academic research, and I just want to say that instead of appealing to a bigoted billionaire these groups should read the writing on the wall— and move on.
Even *if* Musk makes an exception, the data he'll release will be skewed to serve his purposes. The damage is done. Credibility on that platform is gone. Forever.
If my life depended on changing instances I would be dead by now.
I've put in way too much time & I can't find instructions or pretty much any of the how to info I'm searching. It should not be so complicated & difficult.
If I can't figure it out I'll just create a new profile on a new instance with a new email & I will upload the flowing list I downloaded.
Seriously frustrated. If anyone has the link how to change instances step by step, it would be very appreciated. THANKS!
I can't find the link how to change instances and save as much as possible. It was a link to a step by step how-to. I skimmed it in the middle of the night when @feditips announced mstdn.party might evaporate at any moment. Now I can't locate the info at all.
I have extremely limited time and my search is getting circular and not getting anywhere.
Anyone reading this, can you please share it? THANK YOU!
The Fediverse has its own Twitch-style livestreaming platform called OwnCast:
➡️ https://owncast.online
➡️ @owncast
Because they're both on the Fediverse, you can follow OwnCast accounts from Mastodon, and they will post in your home timeline when they go live.
For example @rstv is an OwnCast account that shows weird old films and television 24/7. You can watch the stream right now at https://live.retrostrange.com
There are more OwnCast accounts featured at https://directory.owncast.online
@jonah
Can you please give us an update what's going on for mstdn.party - even a nutshell update would help. Thanks!

You don't have to be racist to participate in systemic racism. US policing produces racist outcomes even from "not-racist" people. I'm going to explain (again):
* why I've probably been pulled over way more times than most people you know, even though most of the times I'm pulled over, I get no ticket (because I did nothing wrong)
* how I stopped getting pulled over so much (because I understand the system)
* And why lots of cops say that the average voter is more racist than the average cop
Listen to Dr. Jha talk to his buddy Dr. Wachter as if nobody else can hear him.
This man is not self aware.
Seems unaware that real people are dying. Unaware what real people are experiencing.
People should watch this so they know who it is who is making policy decisions.
"We'd hope that insurance companies will continue to pay for that."
"It just doesn't resonate that we are still in a pandemic."

UPDATE: Looks like the admin has posted for first time this year: https://mstdn.party/@jonah@neat.computer/109813159614617478
⚠️ Warning to anyone on the mstdn.party or mstdn.plus servers, recommend you move to another server ASAP. Their only admin is apparently unreachable, and his accounts haven't posted anything since Dec 2022.
You can find a new server at https://joinmastodon.org/servers or https://fedi.garden (the servers listed there have at least two admins and promise to give 3 months warning of any shutdown).
@feditips
Yikes! Does anyone have any more info what's going on?
And potential timeframe? Is this a situation to move instances in the next 24 hours, the next few days or the next week?

I did a call for crossposter instances in the crossposter account and did not get a lot of responses.
I can recommend https://moa.party/, which has been around for as long as I can remember, probably around the same time as the crossposter.
There are also these open crossposter instances that I'm aware of, I do not know personally any of them, so look into them as you would any other before signing off your credentials:
