[Admin Mode] Well, that was a wash. I decided to pull the plug and restore from backups after realizing that there were too many things not working right and I wasn't getting a warm fuzzy feeling. We're back where we started, but now I've seen what would happen, so that was a positive.
[Admin Mode] Now running the latest Pleroma 2.10 on Soapbox.
It looks like automatic post updating stopped so I might be up and down a bit trying to track down exactly why, (and I can't explain why notifications went wonky), but we're on a newer backend. If I have to I can roll back to this morning, but I don't want to if I don't have to.
[admin mode] well be going down today for an extended outage for software upgrades. See you on the other side!
[admin mode] sometime this week we'll be going down for back-end upgrades. Just a heads up.
