[Maintenance] Universeodon Mastodon Upgrade - Version 4.4 Thursday 25th September 2025 19:00:00

We will be upgrading the Universeodon site to the current 4.4 version of Mastodon this evening starting at 7PM UK Time (GMT +1). During this time the site may be offline for short periods of time while we apply the upgrade steps. Further updates will be posted here during the course of the maintenance.

All maintenance is fully complete and the site is working as expected.

The site itself is now up to date, we're applying the last of the database migrations behind the scenes before we push some updates to search and our content processing queues as a new queue has been introduced which is not currently configured. We will update you as we progress or if there is any impact to service.

Maintenance has started, it looks like the majority of the work for the upgrade can be done behind the scenes and shouldn't result in an outage. We're running into a small problem at the moment which we weren't expecting but expect to be upgraded shortly.
