[snarfed] had a pretty great experience with https://blogvault.net/features/wordpress-migrations/ over the last couple days, migrating http://snarfed.org to a new web host

# [snarfed]2 GWG++
# [snarfed]2 unrelated, the other day I migrated my site from http://pair.com, where it had been for 18 yrs, to http://wordpress.com
# [snarfed]2 not entirely happy about it, not sure how long I'll stay, but it was a minor emergency and they were the safe choice
# [snarfed]2 AMA 🤷
# [snarfed]2 yup
# [Joe_Crawford] [snarfed] can you share what the minor emergency was? I host with pair myself.
# [snarfed]2 my MySQL db had occasionally been unhappy for hours or sometimes days at a time, going back months. queries got stuck and it ran out of connections (user limit was 40 I think)
# [snarfed]2 my site mostly serves from a filesystem cache, so it only really stopped me from posting, but it finally got bad enough that I debugged a bit and pinged them about it, and they basically said, we dunno, must be your code
# [snarfed]2 sad, I really liked them, they were good and usually pretty clueful
# [Joe_Crawford] 😐 thanks for sharing that. I've hosted with them since I
# [Joe_Crawford] ve had the domain. at least 24 years.
# [snarfed]2 wow!

[pfefferle] can I help you [snarfed]?
# [pfefferle] do you have a tariff that allows installing plugins?
# [snarfed]2 aww thank you [pfefferle]! I don't have a problem any more now that I've migrated hosts
# [snarfed]2 yup, I'm on the business plan, it's working fine
# [snarfed]2 migration was shockingly smooth
# [pfefferle] ok, I see
# [pfefferle] so the problems were before the migration?
# [snarfed]2 right, the problems were on pair, not http://wp.com
# [pfefferle] I see 😮💨
# [pfefferle] 😉
# [pfefferle] [dshanske] pushed me a bit today
# [pfefferle] I am blocking a bit
# [pfefferle] 🙂
# [pfefferle] now that you switched to ClassicPress, I thought I start working on the Block-Editor a bit 😉
# [pfefferle] just kidding
# [pfefferle] [dshanske] I think the threaded comments support in Webmentions is also broken, could that be?
# [pfefferle] should we add some tests to get sure that everything works properly after all these changes?
# [pfefferle] I added a screenshot above and on the PR
# [pfefferle] a simple setting to deactivate incoming webmentions shown in the sidebar
# [pfefferle] to set `webmentions_closed`
# [pfefferle] A LOT!
# [pfefferle] I have a lot of very smart people to learn from now
# [pfefferle] 😉
# [pfefferle] Maybe, in my old age, I'll finally become a good developer ^^

gRegor Bringing this over from dev: https://chat.indieweb.org/dev/2024-11-14#t1731618884405300 indiebookclub includes `code_challenge` and `code_challenge_method` so I'm not sure why it says PKCE isn't supported.
