Apologies everyone, I've been busy for the past week or so. I will be responding to e-mails and toots. 😊

Update on Site status:

We're back up!

Thank you all for your patience and apologies for the downtime.

Update on Site status:

This will take longer than expected to fix. We are currently still troubleshooting.

Apologies, everyone!

Hello all,

We are aware of the site being down. We are currently working to resolve it.

Thank you!

As said in the post, we appreciate all of those who have donated but please do not feel obligated to donate.

Thank you all!

Migration is done! Thank you all. :)

We are migrating servers for the Bookrastinating News Blog (https://blog.bookrastinating.com). This will result in some downtime. Will toot again once it's back up.

Thank you!

Happy New Year! We hope everyone had a good reading year. Don't forget to set your reading goals for 2023 if you are inclined to do so!

We have a new blog post outlining the details of server costs and our monthly donations. Feel free to give it a read.

Thank you!

Hardware and software upgrade is finished! 😄

Thank you for your patience!

Backup and BookWyrm update is finished!

However, we are still waiting on our hosting provider to finish provisioning the server with the upgraded hardware.

The planned downtime will commence in 5-10 minutes!

Planned Downtime:

2022- December 20, 17:15 PM MST

Hello all! The server will be down tonight for at most 30 minutes.

The following will be done:

- Do a server backup (this is an additional backup to the ones we do daily)
- Upgrade RAM from 4GB to 8GB
- Upgrade BookWyrm from v0.5.2 to v0.5.3

Thank you!

November 2022 Donations

https://blog.bookrastinating.com/bookrastinating-november-2022-donations

Thank you to everyone who has donated this month! We reached our monthly goal of covering server costs. Now we are wondering what to do with the excess money and would like to turn to the community to help us decide!

Please vote in the poll or reply with any suggestions or questions you may have.

Hello all!

We have created a blog to provide more in depth updates should they ever arise.

Feel free to follow!

Do not be worried if your import is seemingly stuck at "0%". There is a huge backlog of imports and there are likely many people ahead of you.

However, any import that was started on or before November 11 is most likely stuck. Please reach out to me if that is the case or try to cancel your import.

Thank you all!
