Being in First Class on a train is great and all (only £2 more expensive than an open return - bargain!) but they can't make tea correctly. They put the milk in first!!

So around ~1312 my server that hosts services such as https://meetup-mf2.jvt.me and https://eventbrite-mf2.jvt.me/ but also my Micropub endpoint and other things restarted.

What hardware are you running on? I've found it often doesn't work "out of the box" because the hardware manufacturers don't Open Source/upstream their drivers so it can't be released as part of the core distro offering.
It is definitely a pain for users, as it's not like ie Dell would say "don't buy this, it sucks for Linux usage!"
Slyvia has some amazing artwork in general, but also has some really beautiful representations of each of the Ubuntu distributions' namesakes.
