Same here, sh.itjust.works is currently down:
When I speak about redundancy, I speak about sysadmins as much as disk redundancy. Taking my hypothetical scenario, something happens to you, you are in the coma, there is a security breach (like the one from a few days back), is there someone to take care of it? I know it might be unlikely but as I said, the Vlemmy thing was very low probability and still happened
That’s very good, but what I’m saying is that people are getting cautious nowadays to make sure that their accounts can survive long term. I hope you’ll be well as long as possible, but what happens if something happens to you tomorrow? Who would take care of the servers? Do you have a redundancy plan? The success of LW as the main Lemmy instance is because the admins are experienced, and are a team. Some other instances are managed by non profits or long established groups. That can be a differentiator for choices.
Be also careful with potential users being cautious about you going out of business overnight. Vlemmy.net members had that happen to them last week.
