July 6th - Service Maintenance
EDIT Maintenance Complete (7/6 8:41 AM): We’ve finished troubleshooting with the ISP modem (and stumbled onto fixing the issue somehow), so we’ve brought pawb.social back online.
The Mastodon upgrade has completed and we’re now running Mastodon+Glitch 4.1.3!
…What’s Glitch? Glitch-soc is a fork of Mastodon that enables a ton of cool new features, accessibility options, and more!
You’ll see new things like:
-
An option under the three-dots when posting on the web UI to: Enable threading, or keep your post entirely local to your instance (We’ll be using this going forward with an announcement bot on both pawb.fun and furry.engineer to avoid spamming the timeline)
-
Formatted toots! (You can now use markdown language in your toots!)
-
More skins and flavors of the web-UI, including a high contrast version
Let us know if you have any issues!

Following our previous post about ISP issues, we'll be performing tests on our ISP equipment tomorrow morning (July 6th) from 7 AM US Mountain Time for several hours.
Additionally, we've been made aware of a critical security update for Mastodon that will be released around the same time which we will be applying during the maintenance window.
We're unsure the contents of the security update at this time, but have been told there is no reason to believe it has been exploited in the wild.
During the maintenance window, the following services will be unavailable:
- pawb.fun
- pawb.social
- furry.engineer
We'll have updates throughout the maintenance window available at https://t.me/pawbsocial.
We hope to complete the maintenance as soon as possible and apologize for any inconvenience this causes.
