Scheduled maintainence... patience, they’re upgrading servers to deal with the influx of new users.

Yes for an hour or 2. Schedule maintenance. Something about adding more tubes. Andrew posted last night about it.

Pretty sure that was sarcasm. Vacuum tubes are like OG computer technologies.

That's how he put it. Lol. Far from a tech guy but old enough remembering going to the hardware store with the old man to check tubes. Lol. Yes they are adding more servers. He called it tubes as sarcasm.

Dammit, thought I was being smart for knowing that. Guess I'm just another normie after all.

DNS is down.

That's not the usual "we are down for maintenance".

It stinks of cloudflare.

I tried multiple DNS servers, including bypassing my ISP using NextDNS. Nothing.

Registrar has not changed, so probably not Epik.

They're upgrading hardware and adding servers.

Sure, but Cloudflare always serves a maintenance page when a website goes offline. It's part of their "always on domain" feature.

It's odd, the nameservers in the WHOIS registry are serving up Gab.com, nobody else is. Cloudflare's public free DNS server is intermittently giving me name resolution.

It that case it seems they're ditching Cloud flare. It's GAB; they would cause a stink if this was an attack or something.

I'm on gab, I'm using the DNS servers listed in their registry. No other DNS servers will serve up their IP address.

Gab has a scheduled maintenance. No worries; they will be back.

I’ve been on gab twice today no problems maybe they’re doing updates! I don’t know but it worked really good for me today, twice! I absolutely love that we found a conservative place where we can speak our mind and I’m willing to wait for them to make it quick enough for their entire uplifting of their platform!

Maintenance. They put out info earlier stating 1pm. They said only an hour.
