@AO3_Status These changes are now live! In addition to turning off all comments or only allowing logged-in comments, you can now freeze and unfreeze individual comment threads on your works. Details: https://t.co/QQzqp32jYc

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status In the next few days, we'll be rolling out some changes to comments: admins will be able to restrict news post comments to keep spammers at bay, and creators will be able to freeze 🧊 comments on their works! Details: https://t.co/QQzqp32jYc

@AO3_Status We've found the culprit and will add a bit of caching there to avoid a repeat! 💡

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Looks like we're back! However, issues may continue until we've figured out what just made the database unhappy. Will let you know! Happy bedtime reading / good morning / do your homework / have a splendid day! 🌷

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status We're aware of server issues and are looking into it! Please stand by. 🔧

@AO3_Status If you've previously used the Dewplayer code for your embeds, you can check your work(s) to see the <audio> player in action. If you want to start using the tag to let people stream your podfic or other audio content, you can find instructions here: https://t.co/kTZB0nZAsy

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Our latest set of code updates has been deployed, and we have switched Dewplayer embeds to HTML <audio> tags. Find all details in our release notes:

@AO3_Status We've completed the update -- thanks for bearing with us!🧸

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status The errors appear to have cleared up for the most part. We don't believe they're related to the current work (which we are wrapping up as we speak).

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status We're looking into the cause of the 400 errors some users are receiving.

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status We're about to do some routine updates to the software on our servers, but we don't anticipate any slowness or downtime. We'll let you know when we're done!

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Things are stable for now, but we do need to investigate and tweak it further. However, we can only do that when the problem is actively occurring, so it may be a few weeks.

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Still looking! We'll let you know when we're convinced things have stabilized.

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Getting reports of site slowness and errors! Nobody panic, we'll look into it.

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Downloads (mobi, epub, PDF etc.) aren't affected by the Archive's CSS, so large images will continue to be an issue in those files. 📚Sorry about that!

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status As of today, large images you embed in a work will be automatically resized (using CSS) to fit even small screens. Don't worry, we're not touching the file itself; this just affects the display!

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status One of our sysadmins made some more adjustments to all the bits connecting our servers to each other (metaphorically, not physically), so things should be OK for now.

We'll keep looking for possible issues and let you know if we find anything interesting! 🧰🔧

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Unfortunately, it appears something still isn't quite right, and there may be some slowness and errors again.

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status We've restarted things and the Archive seems to be loading again! 🎉 But please be gentle; we're still looking into the cause and aren't yet confident the site will remain up

[Repeating AO3_Status @Ao3Status]

@AO3_Status Sincere apologies, we're still not sure what's happening and will need to wait a little longer for reinforcements. If it's close to your bedtime, the Archive will be back in the morning!🙂🛌✨Otherwise, carry on in the replies and be kind to each other.🌻
