According to the OVH founder there was a human error on a configuration that brought all the service down and they are reverting the situation.

Major incident on OVH (the hosting provider I use for Masto.host).
Currently all services are down.
I will keep monitoring the situation and report when I know more.
?So, it's upgrade day and I will be starting the upgrade to v2.7.0 for all instance hosted in Masto.host now.
To avoid long waits during database upgrade there will be 2 downtimes of under 30 seconds. Meaning, your instance will go down and come back up and after some minutes (depending on instance size) the same will happen and the upgrade finished.
You can read the blog post with the highlights of v2.7.0 here: https://blog.joinmastodon.org/2019/01/mastodon-2.7/
Any issues, please let me know.
I will be starting the upgrade for all Masto.host hosted instances to v2.5.1 now.
You should expect less than 30 seconds downtime sometime during the next couple of hours.
This release is a backport/vulnerability patch and you can read about it here: https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/releases/tag/v2.5.1
Did you know that https://communitywiki.org/trunk exists?
It's a new project where you can find people in the Fediverse and follow them by topic.
Also, you can request to be included. It's a really cool idea.
If you are new to Mastodon or you are looking for more interesting people to follow, you should check it out.
As expected the upgrade to v2.5.0 is taking a long time and I am running it one server at a time to avoid overloading the database servers.
First server is updated and it took 1:30h. Now, 10 more to go :|
Hopefully I will manage to upgrade everyone in shared hosting today (can't promise) but by tomorrow at this time I am 99% sure that everyone will be running 2.5.0, if no issues arise.
Any questions or if nothing something strange after the upgrade, let me know. Thanks
All Masto.host hosted instances have been upgraded to v2.4.5 ?
Any issues let me know
Did you know that is currently under testing the ability to add custom CSS via the Administration interface https://github.com/tootsuite/mastodon/pull/8399
If all goes well, soon you will be able to customize your instance design even if you don't have access to the server or you don't want to mess with SCSS?
Big thanks to @Gargron
