When Sakurasora launches, we will have our own TOS as we won't be relying on Bluesky's relay (we may launch our own or use Blacksky's relay.

We will have our own TOS, similar to what we are using on Mastodon and Misskey servers, and won't have any of the controversial decisions from Bluesky's.

For the past day, you may notice the AniBlogTracker having issues fetching post. We made some fixes so that the fetcher script uses requests instead of doing the feed retrieval using feedparser.

Made some simple fixes, and hopefully it will be more reliable in fetching new posts.

Sakurajima Update: There were some issues with the resolver DNS on the server side, causing certain services like AniBlogTracker to stop working. This is due to the Google DNS possibly being down. The DNS server on the resolver is changed and services should be restored.
