And it’s buried somewhere underneath hundreds of cryptic error messages and seemingly impossible outcomes.

I will have to provide details later but the summary is:

Today when we attempted to roll out the port code base, everything and anything that could have possibly gone wrong did.

I can only laugh looking back at today, it was that bad.

We were forced to do a full rollback and currently Voat is running its legacy code base with some patchwork to deal with irreversible database changes.

Voat had to do a full retreat. We will regroup and come back to fight another day.

I'm sorry everyone, this was all my fault. I should have had a rollback version of the current software ready and I didn't, I had to write it on the fly. I deserve the shame associated with this lack of foresight.
