The images issue has been temporarily fixed, but there's still a lot of work left for making it permanently fixed. Our storage issue has gone from "stuff is breaking" to "kind of cramped."

There's nothing to be done for it except keep using this instance normally and please have patience if anything breaks again in the next few days.
​

Also, thank you all for your patience. ​

Hi everybody! First of all sorry about the recent issues with Computer Fairies and downtime. It turns out, we have some issues with our storage that will take a few days to sort out. Until then, we're bringing the instance back online, which will still show some issues but you should be able to make and read text posts.

Uptime is good for Linux, but it turns out uptime isn't so good for Ruby on Rails.

as the years went on, i started seeing more and more stuff that was web-based rather than being an actual computer program i could own. PHP forums, java applets, flash, javascript SPAs. people tried to make websites do more and more, but they still always felt like... not real software? there was always something janky and bad about the whole experience, or the design, and that feeling's never really gone away for me. everything on a computer is like this now, even the OS feels like a web page
