@noelle Hey wait... I thought they were using mastodon? Did they change their mind or am I thinking of some other assholes?
@onfy They forked Mastodon and added a bunch of their own stuff, and the stuff they added appears to be the stuff that's breaking.
@noelle Wow... I don't think mastodon's *that* fucking broken, so they must've fucked it up spectacularly.
@noelle Oh yeah, it actually mentions they're running a form of Mastodon in the article. I feel silly now for not reading to the end first.
Hopefully whatever vuln they have is unique to them... or we're in a bit of trouble.
@onfy @noelle yeah I would've heard if there were any big vulnerabilities since Nov https://github.com/noiob/awoospace
@noiob I personally have come to prefer sleeping, so this is a relief to me.
@noiob @noelle She does, to some extent anyway. I don't follow it as much as I maybe should. I think she was behind for a while but has been fixing stuff more recently. Last commit is apparently from November.
