Pew pew!

It appears that Polymaths.social has outlasted Mozilla.social. We must have more resources than the organization that's paying millions of dollars to buy advertising agencies and develop machine learning models.

Guess I could've said it a little clearer. 😂

Polymaths.social launched a year ago today. ;)

Polymaths.social has now completed its first revolution around the sun.

Here's to many more! 🥳

Things appear to be federating again after an NGINX configuration update… I will keep an eye on things to make sure everything begins flowing again.

We do indeed appear to be responding 401 to everything… No idea why.

2024-05-13

There are a ton of "Connection reset by peer" errors in the NGINX log…

2024-05-13

We do know that it wasn't the initial move causing the problem; things were definitely working at that point…

ahhhh it appears nothing is federating. Sorry @amin hasn't been checking fedi the last couple days.

We're looking into it, updates to come.

There will be some downtime either later tonight or tomorrow as Polymaths is migrated to @amin's new server.

Polymaths.social stickers have arrived! :Polymaths: 🎉

We're sending these out free of charge to current Polymaths members—reply if you want one!

Contrary to what was originally said, we will be sending these out internationally too (though first come first serve on my limited supply of international stamps).

@polymaths has a truly wonderful community, it is much smaller

We have big heart though… :BlobCatHeartShow:

@steffo
Oh, it will! ;)

Apparently @amin accounts for 17.2k of those 50k.

It's a script I'm testing out to keep the Polymaths Alpha local timeline from clearing. So far we've lasted 3 days which is better than average but not quite enough to conclusively rule that it's working.
