What Joindiaspora's "Limited-Service Mode" looks like and offers

The Joindiaspora Pod is back online following maintenance in "limited-service mode". It is NOT a full-fledged Diaspora* instance any longer.

The screenshots I'm including here show the accessible portions of the site other than my direct messages (which appear as they did previously). Front page, Notifications, and Profile menu. Notifications are visible, and I'm curious as to whether or not @Doc Edward Morbius (moved to Glasswings) will see this mention...

Also featured is the delightful magenta colour theme I'd chosen to provide a visual cue to myself that I was on Joindiaspora rather than Glasswings over the past few weeks.

It is not possible to read or create comments on the site.

It is possible to view private communications / direct messages.

The front page now notes:

As such, all features are disabled, including the ability to post new content. However, you still can:

  • Export your data, and initiate the account migration as soon it's done.
  • Send and receive private messages.
  • Delete your account.
  • Manage your profile and account details.

I've tested to see if posts can be retrieved via JSON, and that appears not to be the case. My own first post to the site being:

https://joindiaspora.com/posts/cc046b1e71fb043d.json

Via curl -I I see an HTTP 301 (permanently moved) response.
