This is the status page for Fark's behind-the-scenes geekery. If there's a major outage or problem, we'll try to post something here about it... unless we're too up to our eyeballs in trying to actually fix it... so check here if Fark's hosed for an extended length of time. Normally this page will be blank. :-)
For more minor issues, see Mike's blog, or maybe Drew's Bluesky
Our web/db servers are hosted on Vultr,
and they have their own status page.
Our images are hosted on Linode,
and they have their own status page.
Both are fronted by Cloudflare,
and they have their own status page.
Our email servers, and this outage page, are hosted at Amazon AWS
in case of problems with the other hosting companies.
Current known issues:
Sat Nov 8 11:28:37 EST 2025: The random 523 errors from Cloudflare started up again this morning. We've finally tracked this down to a problem with Vultr's load balancers not having the correct list of Cloudflare's IP ranges, so we're going to update the Vultr firewall with our own list of Cloudflare IPs until they can fix it. There may be a few more hopefully-brief disruptions as we adjust the Vultr load balancer firewall.
Previous issues:
nothing notable
Live basic health check:
(very basic and not always reliable; we have a better one internally)
It's probably time I updated this picture from June 2008.
