After close to 2 years of meowing on the fediverse, we decided to open donations for meow!
Currently they will be used to pay @Nomaxice for his full time moderation work on meow.
Depending on how things evolve from there, we may dedicate some of the funds to pay for the hosting fees (currently handled by @Tiwy57 )

You can do a one time donation at https://paypal.me/meowsocial

Or chose to do a recurring donation on https://liberapay.com/meow.social/

Any donation, no matter how small, is appreciated!

An unexpected April fools from mastodon removed the "Meow!" button. But now it's back!

ℹ️

Meow will be unavailable Sunday 17th of March at 06:00 (am) UTC+1, for a duration of around 30 minutes, due to a maintenance operation by the hosting service requiring the replacement of defective system.

The ETA provided by our provider may be shorter than the actual downtime.

If you have any question, feel free to ask away, we will try to answer ASAP.

A strange issue during this night.

From midnight until 9:30 today (French time), the server was unavailable because of the Redis server that got corrupted.

No data was lost.

The fediverse should understands now that we are back, everything should gradually become normal!

Sorry if it took a little while. The sysadmin was sleeping ... literally.

It appears meow emails are not being sent out to users, including follow requests and account verification emails.
We're investigating the issue, and will manually confirm accounts until it's resolved.
If your account is set to get follow requests, please check them manually every so often so you don't miss those.
We apologize and will try and sort this out ASAP.
