  If you want a professionally managed instance, you are welcome to pay for a hosted one.

    Which is exactly what I did 2 years ago. Turns out the uptime is about the same and the price is higher than 0. But on the upside, if there’s downtime I can (usually) immediately reboot the server.

    The server got a little more accounts on there than I initially expected though. But I’m fine with that.

    I signed up with them yesterday and then they go down for I don’t know how long. This is my only experience with them.

      Ok, and?
      That doesn’t change the fact this is a one off issue and theyve never had that issue in three years.

        This is a very big issue for a server no mater when it happens. A sever you can’t reset and you go on a trip ridiculous.

  Out of 3 years of reliable service, this is the one time the server has been down for any length of time, and only due to the admin not being able to be physically present for a wildly unlikely and unexpected problem.

      I know, I’m the one who approved your application.

      You happened to sign up right before we’ve had our first particularly bad issue in 3 years, so it’s a bit out of order (IMO) to say we’re a poorly managed instance based on that, especially seeing as you lost nothing besides the time it took to write your application. :\

        Does Lemmy let you retroactively deny applications?

        My loss of time is small true. I will just move on. But keep in mind new users may not be as knowledgeable as myself.

  Yeah, I know. Complete Murphy’s law situation.
