I’ve implemented new security rules to block requests from systems that seem to be scraping media from #PNWZone. Please let me know if you encounter any errors while using the site, as I don’t want to block legitimate users.

Hey #PNWZone community! We’ve submitted interest in this new program to allow new Mastodon users learn about our instance during their signup process. I’ll keep everyone posted on any progress we make on this.

#PNWZone was impacted by the #Cloudflare outage between 5:05am and 6:30am PT today. Our servers quickly caught up on the backlog of posts that were queued up during the outage and all systems appear to be operating normally now.

Ok. Claude helped me determine that 3 out the 64 4.4 DB migrations scripts were not completed in July (had no impact - just left some cruft in the DB that prevented the 4.5 DB migration scripts from running). Those are now cleaned up and I'll be starting the 4.5.0 migration now. No downtime is anticipated. #PNWZone

I've finished patching the backend servers, but the actual Mastodon 4.5.0 upgrade is running into a couple issues, so we're up and running fine with 4.4.8 for the time being. I'll continue to debug the 4.5.0 migration scripts. #PNWZone

Reminder! Tomorrow's #PNWZone maintenance starts at 6am PT. We'll be doing some server upgrades at the same time as the Mastodon 4.5 upgrade, so we could be offline for until 8am or so.

I'm excited to bring a some awesome new features to #PNWZone in the next month or so. The Mastodon Engineering team is close to releasing version 4.5 with many updates, but the most notable being quote posts and automated fetching of remote replies. The auto fetching which will close one of the major gaps for smaller instances like ours where it feels like we're not seeing the whole thread (because we weren't).

HELLO EVERYONE!
pnw.zone is a free service, but it costs a lot of money to run. And as we grow, the costs grow too.
The generosity of our donors keeps this service running. If each user contributed just $3/month (or more!), this instance would be fully self-supporting.
Your #donation is tax-deductible. If you don’t already donate and would like to, please go to:

Be sure to follow #PNWZone & admin @CurtisLBray for more information.
Thank you! 🙏 ❤️ #pnw

Thanks so much for all those that have donated as well as inquired about the finances of #PNWZone. To share some stats... From Nov-Jan, we averaged $86/month in donations. Our expenses are about $300/month. We currently have about 220 monthly active users. If 50% of folks gave just $3/month then we'd be good to cover costs with and build a small reserve. No obligation if your not able to, but if you have the means, the US tax-deductible donation page is at https://hcb.hackclub.com/donations/start/pnw-zone

Hey #PNWZone users. We've been doing some analysis of our top users and 50% of our top 30 users are all bots that are mirroring Twitter accounts through https://www.sportsbots.xyz/
Given our donations aren't covering our costs, we're going to disable these mirrored accounts starting Feb 25, 2025 to save some cash. Please feel free to directly follow those accounts on Twitter. Thanks!

The Mastodon team released a big update to the world today. Here at #PNWZone, we will be upgrading our server in the next week or two. With this many changes in a single release, we like to lag just a tad behind to avoid any unforeseen issues that may be found out in the wild.
You can read about some of the upcoming changes here.
