We were down about 15 min while experimenting with some options to reduce the size of our virtual machine at #Scaleway. (We didn't succeed.)

Crossposting for the busiest ~50 accounts using the privacydev Nitter instance has worked surprisingly well for a few months. (Help welcome to fix the RSS rendering issues which fail to preserve mentions and hashtags: https://github.com/robertoszek/pleroma-bot/issues/131 .)

A few days ago, crossposting stopped as media retrieval fails. We're now crossposting without media.

Here are some charts about Linux resources, courtesy node-exporter, otel-collector, Prometheus and Grafana.

#ResPublicae was down for about 5 minutes as a service was killed by an OOM. Mastodon services spontaneously shut down and had to be manually restarted.

No further action is deemed necessary as we already have more memory than usually necessary. Shifting to a smaller instance would probably increase the need for manual work like this.
