@life See https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v3.0.0 for this release in particular. Sorry for posting the wrong link.
@silkevicious Well, the people on my instance were on the side of upgrading, so that's what I did.
It seems that no one here was actively following or communicating with GNU Social instances.
I also see that it is more promising that GNU Social will have more ActivityPub support in the future.
@life Thanks for keeping things flowing smoothly.
I see I'm still stuck with the lower follower number, rather than the original number that made me a star.
@zudn
I am very sorry about this. Several databse migrations didn't work. Neither did another thing I tried. I will look further into tootctl to see if something will work.
I hate what happened with weedis.life. Stuff like that just causes more trouble for us admins.
@masterofthetiger Nah, don't worry with it. You've made a valiant effort. Please don't spend more time on it.
@masterofthetiger I thought maybe the update might restore it. Hence, the mention.
@zudn
We have been through a couple of uodates since then. Alas, nothing solved it.
@masterofthetiger I don't even remember what caused it to start with. ha
@zudn
Like I said, weedis.life made over 1,000 accounts follow you at once. This also happened to Kris. I haven't been able to reverse the damage except by unfollowing and refolloeing you again.
@masterofthetiger ah, yes, drastic measures were called for.
@life Actually see: https://theres.life/about/more#unavailable-content for a more direct link to our domain blocks.
