big thanks to @Siphonay whose patch for glitch-social was the basis for this change. The git repo for queer.party's Mastodon build has a patch file for this change which applies to the vanilla Mastodon v3.1.3 codebase: https://git.maff.scot/maff/queer.party/src/branch/master/deploy/3.1.3_1-hcaptcha-registrations.patch#mastoadmin

@Siphonay oh absolutely, it's definitely something i'll keep an eye on cause it will need to be matured, i'm just utterly tired of having more than 400 emails in my inbox which are all "some fucking cretin with a stupid domain name registered to sell fake pills again"

@david @Siphonay you too? i've been getting upwards of 100 a day of blank registrations with random domains registered under daft TLDs, on top of the usual HTML comment spam shilling "penicillin in alberta" or "top berlin viagra shops"

"Fucked in the Ass by My Own Executive Dysfunction" is a book Chuck Tingle should write because it'll call me the fuck out

fun fact, Sidekiq/Redis keeps counters of tasks processed/failed for the lifetime of the redis store, which I've been migrating in full every time any storage change happened to queer.party since its inception.the sidekiq dashboard lets you see a graph of tasks processed and failed for up to the last 6 months, but if you edit the URL, you can input an arbitrary number of days, so i put in the number of days this instance has been running (around 1190..) and uh. growth has been wild.

@FanOKnives makes sense, wish they'd make up their own connector instead of making everyone guess whether a port and cable will work for TB

folks, queer.party has been upgraded to Mastodon 3.4.4.With this, Postgres 9.6 was end-of-life and needed upgraded, so we are now also upgraded to Postgres 14.the database upgrade is why queer.party has been down since like 1PM GMT, because the database stuff took literally like seven hours to finishi knew there was a reason i didn't like postgres. why the fuck can't it be as simple as mysqlupgrade, where you don't need a copy of the previous version's binaries to upgrade.

a heads up: I got word from one of the ~threat intelligence~ companies that had listed queer.party as malicious. It appears that a user was using the text of profile itself as a means of command and control or..something like that. User has been suspended, registrations are limited, and I'm doing a review on other accounts, but i imagine queer.party isn't the first and won't be the last to be abused in this way.#mastoadmin

friends, queer.party has been updated to fix those awful new captive links - right clicking the timestamp of a toot will once again give you the toot’s canonical URL instead of a URL that keeps you on queer.party.the patch in question is located here if you’re an instance admin familiar with applying patches to mastodon and you also don’t like the twitter-fication of mastodon. https://commit.pup.cloud/maff/queer.party/src/branch/master/deploy/4.0.0_4-revert-captive-links.patch

as a friendly reminder to folks on queer.party: everyone can invite people to join! registrations are closed because invites have been working way better at allowing Actual People to use q.p without me being flooded with signups from spammers, so please keep using them :purple_sparkling_heart: you can get invite links to send to folks by going to https://queer.party/invites, or clicking preferences -> invite people
