kbin.earth maintenance complete! (kbin.earth)

Thank you all for your patience, and sorry for the huge downtime. I think it ended up being down about 40 minutes or so.

Luckily, I was able to get kbin.earth migrated over to the new Mbin Docker setup! This new setup means the Docker is now officially supported by Mbin, whereas it wasn't really recommended before.

And this new Docker setup was actually made in-house by ... me! I guess I'm officially an Mbin contributor now :)

Anyway, the other big thing I accomplished was upgrading the Postgres major version from 13 to 17 (the latest), which is quite a big jump! Actually, this database upgrade was really what took so long; the migration could have been done in ~5 minutes otherwise.

As always, let me know if you notice any peculiarities or issues caused by this migration.

Ah, yeah that is the issue. What tripped me up is that searching for "random" in the magazine list showed remote magazine results above the local results, so it was lost in the middle. And because there's no "@kbin.earth" to staple on, there's no way to filter the results further.

Yeah, I'm not sure why that's the case. Just another one of those Mbin quirks.
