We just crossed the 100 user threshold in the instance! 🎉

I'm planning some downtime in the next few days to upgrade the instance to the v0.17.4 release, as well as bump the instance size and add more storage. Since Monday is a holiday in the US I'm planning to do this Tuesday night Pacific time.

[For anyone curious, the instance is running on a $6 VPS from Digital Ocean. CPU usage has been negligible (10%), memory usage has been stable around 80%, but disk usage has been increasing 2GB/day (a lot of it from logs, which I've been pruning). I'm going to double the memory just in case, and attach a 100GB volume to the instance to give us some space to breathe.]

Yay! This is great! I'm planning on making a few communities (sublemmies? sublems?) over the next few days, just haven't been at my computer much over the weekend. In an effort to see this continue to grow, please let me know if there's anything I can do to help with the server, modding, etc. I'm not as tech savvy as I used to be, but I'm still able to fumble my way through things.

Thanks for the offer to help! For now things are pretty chill, but I think in the future I will definitely need some help!

Congrats, that’s awesome! If there’s anything I can do to help, feel free to reach out. I run cloud infrastructure for a living and would be happy to help out.

Same here, but with compute servers instead of cloud stuff. I would be happy to help as well.

Hurray!! Nice to see it grow!
