Folkwolf.net upgraded

Folkwolf.net has been upgraded from F28 to F37, so if you use the server for anything and notice anything amiss, please let me know.

Also, entirely unrelated, a new blog/homepage is here, I’m trying to take up blogging again and so far it’s … going.

On a tech note, the upgrade was completed entirely using dnf system-upgrade version by version from 28 to 37. That’s 9 entirely automated fedora upgrades and the only thing that wen’t wrong was that the postgresql database got orphaned at version 10. Luckily I wasn’t using it for anything. Hats off to the Fedora devs for making sure that the system upgrades work so well.
