Thanks to all donations, we've been able to solve all issues caused by the sudden growth (100 to 117000 users in 3 weeks) by:- Getting a new server and migrating to it- Getting a stable mail service- Getting media storage moved to WasabiIn my opinion, mastodon.world has been running stable and responsive for over a week now. Time to start tweaking to try get it even more responsive.If you see any issues, let me know.Might you want to donate: https://opencollective.com/mastodonworld

@ruud Thanks for doing this. I just joined and so far, so good! I will definitely consider topping up the donations if you run low.

@ruud I'd be interested in reading your insights about this, how you were able to scale everything to keep it working that smoothly. If you ever write something about it, let me know :comfy:

@ruud As I #migrated from the #birdsite , I've learned that #mastodon isn't hosted by a company, but by a bunch of #lovely #nerds that all this possible to the #freeworld . So, as I'm not poor (but not #rich either...), I'd love to take my #share to keep all this running.So, you're welcome.Highly #appreciate your efforts!

@ruud I was nervous when I chose my 'instance' with mastodon.world because I had noticed some pretty disturbing things happening with .social and .ca - but I have felt very well served here. Thank you. I am pretty sure people don't thank you enough, so I will say it again. I'm glad that I am here.

@ruud I just did something I would never do for Twitter. I gave your site money. As hard as I work for my money, I would rather literally burn money than give it to Elon Musk. Thank you for this community. I like it.

@ruud I just donated! Thank you for keeping this service running for us. I think this decentralization idea is important. I'd be happy to volunteer if you're looking for moderators. I think that's going to be important too going forward.

@ruud : Appreciate all your efforts. I had to roundabout donate (since I don't have accounts on your payment choices), so still hoping for a PayPal option, too. Any plans to cap the # of users here, or just letting it grow?

@ruud kicked in some money to support your efforts. Amazed at the donation to user ratio. < 300 for > 100k users! The Mastodon experience is real breath of fresh air. Appreciate the work you put in to keep .world running well.

@oceandweller Thank you! We actually have almost 4000,- EUR in Patreon and OpenCollective combined, which is awesome. It allows us to scale, and keep that up for at least half a year.
