Time for some database spring cleaning .

Here are my top tips for mastodon admins!

Index bloat is your #1 enemy. Federation churn (constant insert/delete cycles) destroys B-tree indexes fast. Run this on your Postgres server:

REINDEX TABLE CONCURRENTLY public.statuses;

Repeat for conversations, mentions, statuses_tags, tombstones

[ Back up your db first just in case! ]

@steveroyle @StephenCurry I think we should try. I grew up in Australia and science/ research is always hard to sell. working conditions for ECRs are abysmal so I suspect those numbers will adjust.

@steveroyle @StephenCurry "The best solution would be more funding for research". What can we do about that?

@mike@sauropods.win @Jochgem@mathstodon.xyz @brembs@mastodon.social maybe we can argue with ukri to do the same. Nihr already has it's own platform.
