  I always assume there is someone working to fix things

  After being a member of SDF for over 2 years, I always assume there isn’t.

  Have you asked the SDF community if there is anything you can do to contribute to better uptimes?

  No, for three reasons:

  • I paid for SDF. That’s more than I can say for most services I use that are orders of magnitude more reliable. In fairness, I paid once, expecting to pay every year, because I like to pay for what I use. But I never paid again because the service is utter shit. Sorry to be rude, but that’s just the plain reality.

  • I tried to contact someine in the SDF shell chat thingy and it’s always been crickets. I’ve given up on that.

  • What the hell can I do to “contribute to better uptimes” aside from running a server at home on behalf of SDF?

  Putting out there that if you’re waiting for the next outage of a few days to move servers, […]

  I’m not waiting. I’m currently evaluating Piefed with a view to moving my communities over there if it proves good and reliable. As for my personal account, I already have this one on Sipuli as a backup (now my main account) and I’ve created another one in piefed.social and imported my settings there too.

  I’m done with SDF. The next - and last - time I post from my SDF account is to lock my communities and redirect subscribers to their new home.

  Let’s hope it lasts this time.

  Next time it goes down, I’ll move my communities and my user account out to Sopuli permanently.

  The teacher is the one who’s confused here. The kid is entirely correct.

  It would be more entertaining if you posted that on the tankie instances.

  That’s the exact kind of messy migration I want to avoid.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Lemmy.sdf.org is down for the count⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Agreed. I wish I could transfer my SDF communities over here but it’s not possible, sadly.

  Whatever they once were, they suck now.

  Whatever it is, as a SDF member, I curse the day I decided to support them. I paid SDF because I believe in paying for what I use, and it turns out to be the worst service I use by a long shot. Why I didn’t open my first Lemmy account on a more reliable instance for free, I’ll never know…
