sorry the server has been experiencing huge issues for the past 4 days (the home feed and notifications are frozen, among other things) and since notification did not work I wasn't notified until yesterday but couldn't look at it until today.

I had to ask for help from a mastodon contributor and we're still unsure what went wrong here.
If we've hit the right spot things should go back to normal by midnight UTC time. If not we'll still have some digging to do tomorrow.

Sorry for all this.
