This message was just posted by Mycelium on Twitter:-
"All the spam flood clogged our Tor server, so we're having to defrag the 160gig database it's on. Will take a while. Sorry"
I went into settings and stopped using Tor and was successfully able to make transactions. My past transactions that did not appear on the Blockchain, have disappeared and my balance is correct.
Twitter really does seem to be a very good place to get CS as no company wishes to give bad publicity in such a Public Forum.
I just tried finding that message. I checked
https://twitter.com/myceliumcom but it wasn't there. Mostly that was retweets of stuff unrelated to Mycelium. Eventually I found it here:
https://twitter.com/MyceliumCom/with_replies - mixed in with a lot of out-of-context replies to questions that I can't see without clicking - and the retweets are still there too. I have to scroll through pages of photos of people's feet and such like to find important announcements? Seems sub-optimal. There must be some better way of communicating important information directly affecting users of the wallet. Is the service back up now? Is it safe to use it? If not, is there an ETA for when it will be safe? Those are the questions I'd want to see addressed, maybe on a dedicated "service status" page so I don't have to get distracted by
pictures of feet or
Julia in short shorts.
While github is a good resource, I don't think its issue tracker is the place for announcements about back-end server issues. The issue tracker is for tracking issues in the 'open-source' components of their wallet, which I don't think includes the back-end server databases.
I need to switch to another wallet asap...
Let us know if you find anything good for Android. I had high hopes for
airbitz but it wanted access to so much stuff on my tablet that I ended up not installing it.
