Solarpunk instance going offline for awhile was like a true solarpunk experience (sopuli.xyz)

First of all, I love you, slrpnk admins. You handled it all like champions! Happy to have you back.

Someone said in one one of the matrix chats during the outage that the fact that this instance is selfhosted and went down is like true experience of a solarpunk world; there won't always be power and that's okay!

Just wanted to write it down in a post since that message was so spot on.

Why stop with power? We should aim for water outages as well! Just when I was starting to think this might not be a pathological ideology...

Good luck to the admins though, I appreciate the effort to stay out of cloud. It's hard to maintain constant uptime when you don't have teams of people dedicated to keep stuff afloat.

Now when I think about it, is it even possible to run lemmy on a cluster, like a regular web app, or is it a monolith?

Happy cakeday :)

My home country has a general guideline for all the inhabitants: keep stocked up on emergency food water + some other stuff enough that you can survive 3 day power, water and other outages.

Been living with that in mind for a long time!

Never been under a true test though.
