@chad@mstdn.ca  ·  activity timestamp last month

That said, I'm committed to making sure that mstdn.ca is stable, and am committed to making sure our community is the best it can be for years ahead.

But folks, we're running on shoestrings, not financially, but in people.

In less words: Volunteers are being abused on the fediverse.

In terms of me, I'm running on fumes. For a community of 36,000 people, there should be zero reason why the technical administration lies purely on my shoulders. I should be able to get on a Discord call and work through these issues.

As it is, here I am, in my 8x4 office, stressing covering the fact we're not delivering for our community completely alone.

@chad Hey, Chad. I'm really sorry you're in this spot. I've got plans with my family tonight during the All Hands, but I might be able to help later. I'll follow the conversation carefully. You got this and we're here for you! #ElbowsUp

@evan @chad I absolutely believe Canada needs a healthy collection of stable Fediverse instances. I hope the sincerity of this call is heeded by some of your strongest members.

hey @reiver, does your network have any comments about masto admin advice sharing/help/networking? How does one onboard tech helpers (eg the open source style contribution guidelines learning?)

Is what you have in mind, something like a fedi-admin knowledge-base?

I've created an "All-Hands" Call on DIscord for this evening at 6pm MST. I'm hoping that anyone interested in participating in the technical aspects (and other areas) are able to join.

@chad @boris @zakgreant Do you know any folks who could aid mstdn.ca with their current Mastodon / postgreSQL issues?

@nep @zakgreant I boosted this from our @coop crew who also shared this and seeing who can help source a connection
