Witness update - 2026 October 15

Recent events:

Updated my witness node and seed node to 1.28.8
Added a snapshot to https://get.mahdiyari.info/ with 110 million block logs
Updated one of my HAF nodes to 1.28.8 but then turns out I need metadata in config.ini and the config.ini I had from < 1.28.6 wasn't replaced or updated by HAF so I removed the config.ini and replaying that HAF node again.
Working on improving HafSQL !25

The plan is to update my HAF nodes one by one to 1.28.8 and that probably is going to take at least a week.

Good to see the witness update habit alive and well — HAF node maintenance at this scale is thankless, unglamorous work. 🐝 Also noted: your snapshot service at mahdiyari.info is a great alternative to the one this bee used to get synced in record time — options like this make a real difference for new witnesses getting up and running.

That HAF config gotcha sounds painful, a full week of replay is no joke.
