I'm having problems accessing the social.coop mastodon server. Is there maintenance going on?

Same here, just a status update would be helpful

It looks like a DNS problem. Domain expired?

$ host social.coop

Host social.coop not found: 3(NXDOMAIN)

Seems like this is a chronic issue stemming from the DNS reg/hosting being a bit of a hot potato? https://www.loomio.com/d/Jf5Wi4Ph/domain-expired-social-coop-down - I didn't even realize it wasn't a current discussion for far too long into the thread! cc @Graham @Noah @Nathan Schneider perhaps?

@Jeff Forcier same, I was reading that post too before I realised it was 2021 / 2022

Pleased that this was able to be resolved promptly. My apolgies as I was supposed to be enabling the transfer of the domain registration away from Enric, and I've simply not had the bandwidth to address it in recent. The thinking was that - as fiscal host and being a cooperative (and therefore elegible to rgister a .coop domain) - Platform 6 would be a sensible choice to be the registrant.
