my wife just reminded me of a very funny story. I ordered a bench PSU from one of the big electronics suppliers and when the box arrived only the power cable was in there, no bench PSU. so I called them up, the warehouse guy was able to confirm the shipping weight was way off, and we ended up chatting about funny shipping errors. one of their newbies had once gone to a shelf, it was empty, so assumed the shelf itself was the item and shipped it out. but that wasn't the funniest one.

their warehouse picking system was descended from an old mainframe greenscreen app. the kind where you have a terminal connection and you have to put text in the different fields. when they upgraded with new systems it all tied into that same old backend, parsing the fields from their known positions in the terminal output.

this occasionally causes interesting problems. most spectacularly when someone ordered a large reel of solder and something overflowed a text field shifting everything down.

연합우주 인스턴스를 조사하면서 알게 된 건
미스키의 존재감이 있긴 하나
연합우주의 2인자 수준으로 인기가 많은 건 아니고

미스키 인스턴스보다
GoToSocial 인스턴스가 더 많고
이용자도 많은 편이라는 것.
물론 우리나라에선 크게 알려져 있지 않지만.

미스키도 인스턴스 꽤 많다.
지금까지 조사해본 결과
미스키가 550개 정도라면
GoToSocial은 약 700개 정도?
거기는 대체 뭔가 싶어서 조사해볼까 한다.
