#errorphant — Public Fediverse posts

*2nd UPDATE*
it still doesn't work. But every other browser is fine

*UPDATE Edit*
It looks like it was something related to @mozilla #firefox

All works fine on other browsers and it looks like Firefox reboot did the trick, but still buggy.

*Original Post*

Hello #Mastodonians, am I the only one experiencing some errors in connecting to my #mastodon home tab?

My connection seems fine. All other tabs work.

#FediHelp #Bug #errorphant #NetworkError #Error

I had an issue with my mastodon instance and I wasn't able to open the moderation interface, showing the #errorphant

Running this command in postgresql fixed it:

su - mastodon
psql
REFRESH MATERIALIZED VIEW instances;

#Errorphant, why you so #cute … #oops

@mynotaurus @esther https://github.com/tuskyapp/Tusky/pull/3922 #errorphant

(also, we've fixed the underlying bug too)

@esther It MUST be named #Errorphant.

@esther #Errorphant, I like it! make it true!

@zyk look I made a half-assed ill-considered unplanned low-effort misguided attempt to spin up my own instance on my home NAS and all I got for my efforts was an #Errorphant
We'll get there one day 😁

I always thought the cute little elephant - the #Errorphant, as @esther would have it - banging away in frustration in the Mastodon "not found" page, our very own version of the #failwhale, was a representation of users frustrated with Mastodon's quirks and oddities.

Now I realize it doesn't represent users at all: it represents Mastodon instance admins throwing a tantry.

why do you want to name #errorphant as if it were other character?.. it's just #JonhMastodon having a little time of philosophical reflection... 😉 🐘

Did #JohnMastodon approve the name for #Errorphant?

@[email protected] @Metamedia I came from the future to tell you: this idea has become very popular recently! https://strangeobject.space/@esther/109866076826121454 (after being boosted by @feditips)

Although I have to side with you, #Errophant is *clearly* superior to #Errorphant.
