If you're reading this, please #boost so I can get back to being federated with the #fediverse. Unfortunately, the data center I've been hosting with for years and years encountered some serious issues. I had to move suddenly, losing almost everything. I took the chance to change the software I use. But I've still lost all of my followers, all of my federation, etc! It's also taken down rblind.com, my passion project to get more #blind folks off #reddit. I'll be bringing that back over the coming days. In the meantime, hi! I'm a blind guy who uses the #NVDA#screenreader, loves #accessibility and works in the field, and reads tons of #fanfic, #litrpg, and #sciencefiction and #fantasy in my spare time. Nice to meet you!
Wow, sorry for your loss but I keep saying it. Self hosting!!!
Our Beamship has been running on a laptop for over 2 years and still kicking 😁 our biggest problem is the 1 taro drive is to small but it proves that anybody can Self-Host.
@bob The reason I host my stuff in a data center is because my ISP doesn't offer IPV6 yet, but does place customers behind a carrier grade NAT. So I can't forward ports to myself reliably. I do keep the off-site backups in my basement. Unfortunately, Pleroma wasn't backing up propperly.
