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

Previous issues:
Fri Apr 24 18:15:16 EDT 2026: Link submission may have given bogus "duplicate submission" errors for the last few hours, especially for TotalFark Discussion submissions. This is related to the 15:40:08 change. Both are fixed.
Fri Apr 24 15:40:08 EDT 2026: Link submission was broken for about half an hour due to a stupid mistake of mine
Wed Apr 15 16:18:37 EDT 2026: Load balancer architecture was replaced (again) to significantly reduce random Cloudflare 520 errors.
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.
