hello tilde friends!
i'm planning another move of the tilde.team vm (again, sorry) to a new server that i'm renting at OVH. i'm not 100% sure what day i'll be doing it, but it will need to happen before january 29 when the current server lease expires.
i'm expecting the migration to go much smoother than before, as everything now lives inside a vm that can easily be transferred as a single-file backup archive, but it will still likely take a couple hours since i'll need to first shut down the vm to ensure backup consistency, then transfer it over. besides moving the vm itself, the ipv4 addresses will also need to be transferred over to the new server and i'm not sure how long that will take.
affected services will include: - tilde.team shell accounts, email, websites - tildeverse.org site and services - tilde.zone (and pleroma) - these mailing lists
(don't worry, pending mail will get delivered once we're back up)
the earliest i'll be doing this migration is this weekend and i'll send a follow-up message to this thread and on irc before taking the vm down.
cheers and happy holidays! ~ben

At least things will run smoothly :)

Cheers to you too ben, and happy (rather belated) holidays to you too mate! :)
Hello! The server will be going down in 15 minutes!
See you on the other side!
I'll post progress updates on irc (use webchat https://web.tilde.chat or connect your own external client) and send another mail to this list when we're back up.
Cheers, ~ben
