Okay, Bob Dole. 
 lmfao. even the fucking instance admin moved away from his own fucking insane 
 Why would you move away from your own fucking instance? :acat_confused: 
 >glances towards troll.cafe 
 :nothehe: you have your own instance and use gleasonator instead? 
 Yeah because I'm too retarded to upgrade Pleroma and install Soapbox 
 :blobcatnerd: from what I remember installing Soapbox was actually pretty easy though 
 Probably the more complicated part at this point would be upgrading Pleroma since I'm using whatever the current version was in like 2020 
 (I also haven't paid the hosting bill in over 6 months) 
 How is it still up? :acat_agony: 
 Good question! One guy ( @94153162 ) still uses it fairly regularly and every time I see his posts I'm always surprised! 
 No, I mean like how is it still up if you haven't paid the bills? Wouldn't your hosting provider normally shut it down? 
 They cut off my access to the VPS shell, but somehow the services are still running. Maybe the host is as incompetent at shell hosting as I am at instance administration! 
 Oh so I guess the host just be incompetent then 
 I never expected Linode to be THIS incompetent.
