Just gonna throw this out here - any Ruby gem for relatively quick & accurate language detection that you know of?

Updating 18 million records sequentially before I can merge my next pull request 😴

Registrations are open while I'm having tea / watching the Office. I think we should be able to handle 50k users - somewhere around 44k right now

Hello friends, I'd just like to interject here for a moment.

Eugen needs money to live, and mastodon.social has server expenses, but money doesn't write code by itself. There's still 183 open issues on the Mastodon project github.
github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/

Writing a code patch to fix a problem or work in a feature helps not just mastodon.social, but also everyone else running Mastodon, too, and you'll have @Gargron's gratitude, and all the other devs' too.

Love, Trev

TIL that dogs can have hiccups 😆

When recommending to your friends, give the other instances some love too: instances.mastodon.xyz/ It looks like mastodon.social is under even heavier load than yesterday right now

Writing up what we got up to on libraries.io in March, it discovered 400,000 more versions this month :open_mouth:

@Gargron so much :heart: for the :github: style emoji!
