@PaladinQuinn hi there, I'll have a look at this and do the necessary. Thanks for bringing this to my attention. :)

@sapphicgiraffic Hi Jessica, sorry for the late response. I believed Alana and Avistra answered to your question. :) As from myself, I would say it always depends on the context of a toot. If you're feeling uncertain, the safest way is to use CW. Basically what Alana and Avistra said.

@codeawayhaley thank you Haley 😉

@alana_is_tooting let me know if you come across the same issue again. :)

Psychologically, why do people tend to control others? There are two control freaks in my own family, trying to control what I do and what I say in my entire life..

@alana_is_tooting indeed, i was also expecting the old images to reload if someone ever look back at the old toots. Unfortunately this isn't a feature right now. And I had no choice, to save up disk space I had to clear them, and I chose 30 days rather than default 7 days.

Cleared remote media that are older than 30 days, feeling great to see used disk space reduced by a big chunk 😅

@porsupah on 2.6.1 now 😜 I'll make sure I do upgrades more frequently in the future to avoid messing up the upgrade process. 😅

@loki_leigh sorry for the downtime!

Everything is back to normal. We are on the latest version - v2.6.1. Thank you for your patience.

If you're interested, have a look at the releases to know what's new: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases

And, don't forget to subscribe to our status page for any future alerts: https://exana.io/s/o0a8u6gqz5pz23pg/public

I have bumped up our instance version to v2.5.2 now, will proceed with the upgrade to v2.6.1 (latest) in the background.

Customisations will be reapplied last.

At the meantime, do subscribe to our status page at https://exana.io/s/o0a8u6gqz5pz23pg/public so that you're not lost during any downtime.

Sorry for the prolonged downtime!

Instance is still not upgraded due to the prolonged backup process (worst of all it cannot be cancelled!). You'll be able to toot and read toots, but there's going to be downtime now and then for the next 24 hours. Please bear with me.

I have set up a status page at https://exana.io/s/o0a8u6gqz5pz23pg/public which you can subscribe to, to get latest updates.

Server will be taken down for upgrade process in an hour (counting from this toot).

Or maybe set up something like Status Page (I can try looking for alternative free solutions)?
