I know it's been a moment or two since my last post, time and tide waits for no man and the continued workload of 
The lack of posts does not mean I am not keeping up with the Hive Blockchain - far from it in fact because in the background I still maintain my Witness servers for c0ff33a and whiterosecoffee.
I have a total of six Hived nodes processing the blockchain, four are for my two Witnesses and back ups for them - mostly running v1.27.10. My full API node of course needs one, that is still on v1.27.5 at present there is a broad spread of API nodes on different versions - I am waiting on the latest generation of Hived that requires building on the latest Ubuntu Server to update the full API node - and will most likely start over with a clean slate. https://api.c0ff33a.uk
I also have a Hived v1.27.10 running on a dedicated server with my Hive Engine Witness which is a Full Hive Engine Node - you can switch between the nodes you use on any Hive Engine front end now which is always helpful to do because it spreads the load of requests around a bit.
You can manually enter https://he.c0ff33a.uk if it is not available in the list of nodes on your chosen front end. You can view the list of Hive Engine Witnesses Here . I also have three back up Hive Engine light nodes running to provide cover for unexpected issues.
My Hive Witness rank has dipped in a little in the past year and a half, which I suspect is my lack of visible activity more then anything. It just about covers the cost of the full api node server https://api.c0ff33a.uk but not the time it takes to manage it sadly.
Over on Hive Engine I am fairing better with a consistent top twenty position, which helps because the full node server is not cheap to rent either.
Overall if anyone wanted to know I am still about, if not actively posting and commenting at present. If I can stabilise my workload a bit I will try and get back to posting again, but coffee pays the bills and it's soaking up far too much of my time at present.
