Welcome to MediaWiki!

Meta

Mew is a community wiki[1] for the Mastoverse, with a focus on helping complicated people to be kind to each other.

Site News

  • 2018-05-30 The SSL certificate failed to renew on the new server. Four hours later, I fixed it.
  • 2018-05-22 spambots began creating accounts on toot.cat; we soon implemented a policy of immediately suspending any of these that tooted spam links, and silencing the rest.
    • There were a few dozen accounts created as of evening the next day.
  • 2018-05-20
    • 13:23 ET A long-overdue server reboot resulted in all message windows being depopulated. I retreated to the TootCave to focus on the problem.
    • 13:39 ET It turned out to be a misconfiguration in Nginx, and I don't know why it was even working before. See HTYP for details.
  • 2018-05-03 Email issues fixed. There nonetheless seems to be a deficit in Mastodon diagnostics.
  • 2018-05-01 Ongoing email issues are making me tear my hair out. (How appropriate for May Day!)
  • 2018-04-26
  • 2018-04-16: working on upgrade and migration
  • 2018-01-25: Mastodon software is up-to-date with no major issues.

  • 2018-04-30
    • Sina of cutie.space announced (cache) that she will no longer be serving Mastodon from that domain, effective within a matter of hours, due to a decline in users, and will be replacing it (cache) with something less resource-intensive.
    • witches.town goes offline
    • Woozle posts a reassurance that toot.cat will not be going away anytime soon.
  • 2018-04-27 Ginny McQueen of kitty.town posted on Medium asking for help; Woozle posted about it on Google+.
