does it work on frontends other than the main one? e.g. https://p.programming.dev/
should be fixed
that probably would make things more confusing since it would sound even closer to c/technology. You also cant rename communities so it would have to be remade if any name change occured which would lose all the current posts, etc.
I’m in the same city so it’s not that bad. Could be a lot worse lol
Also going to be adding some ssh keys to my steam deck and phone so if this happens again I can at least connect remotely that way next time. Usually do it with password auth on my personal servers so forgot to copy the key for this server
It shows the error under the what happened section

SSL certificate got expired, should be fixed now (went in and renewed it)
That should be getting done automatically so ill have to see what happened
Yep I have that queued up to do sometime soon, you should see some updates going out this week

Remember to keep posts on topic for the community! Technology company news should be going into c/technology instead
Hey everyone. Just wanted to do a post to pin in the community just to enforce the difference between c/tech and c/technology more since there’s been more and more rule breaking posts popping up and I don’t want to put more work on maintaining here since there’s no dedicated mod team for it atm

Slight Christmas Outage
Hey everyone! Sorry for the few hours of outage on the site. There was an issue with the renewing of the SSL certificates and in standard fashion it happened at the worst time when nobody could fix it quickly.
Misc Frontend Updates (stacks.programming.dev)
All alternate frontends have been updated to their recent versions.

New community request community (programming.dev)
Now that people have settled in a bit into the instance and we have over 100 communities created I’ve created a new community that new community requests are going to be moved into rather than the pinned thread
Remember to Report Issues
If you ever run into issues with the instance make sure to report them to someone on the admin team so we can fix them (Ive seen some people mention some stuff I didnt know about before since it wasnt brought up). Duplicate reports about the same issue is better than no report at all so dont worry about reporting something someone else already might
Looking for new Community Team Members (stacks.programming.dev)
Hi everyone! Were currently looking to get two new members of the community team: one for programming.dev (our forum and link aggregator) and one for bytes.programming.dev (our microblog)
Site will be going down again within 1-3am ET (10 hours from when this post was made) to double check none of the other tables are affected
Will be reindexing all of the tables I havent reindexed yet just in case some of them also got corrupted
The site may be down within the period of 1-3am ET for maintenance
Doing another round of maintenance to fix some issues related to posts
The site may go down within the window of 1-3am ET (4 hours from when this was posted) for maintenance
Will be attempting to fix some issues. If theyre still there after this maintenance I’ll be doing another round tomorrow or on the weekend around the same time slot since there’s less activity then
