Alt account of poVoq@slrpnk.net here.
Our instance is currently down and I can’t get remote access to the servers. It appears that there might have been a hardware failure of the main firewall, which is the one thing I can’t work around remotely.
I am still trying a few things, but I am not very optimistic that I can get access.
The really unfortunate part is that just now I am on one of my rare work deployments abroad, so I also can’t access it physically during the next few weeks and my usual back up that could restart it is not available either.
As something like that never happened in 3 years operating the servers, I thought I can risk it, but murphy’s law seems inescapable 😓
I will try to keep you posted here on any updates, but probably there will not be much I can do for a while. Really bad timing 😥
Edit: we might use this “opportunity” to migrate the instance to Piefed, which has been an idea for quite some time now. I will keep you posted on that.
Are you familiar with the concept of volunteer burnout, and are you aware that your current behavior is exactly what causes it? Right here in the fediverse we’re losing lem.ee to burnout, for example.
What "my behavior?* Which “behavior?” Gently recommending that poVoq/Kris get some more help? 'Cause that’s the only thing I did! My other comment was directed at your stupid hot take, not him.
I don’t know what you think you’re bitching about, but whatever it is you misinterpreted it out of thin air.
