When an instance is down, I am wondering what to do in regards to accessing my communities. Sure I can make accounts on various instances and just sub to the same stuff on all of them for backups, but is there a less grindy way to manage that?
You must log in or # to comment.
Asking the real questions.
I think that’s a question for the entirety of the ActivityPub fediverse, honestly, haha. The safest bet is probably running your own instance but that doesn’t solve the problem of other communities disappearing when their main instance goes down.
I’ve been looking at standing up an instance of peertube and I’m considering the same issues there.
You could run your own instance so you can be in more control of the server.
I’m working on a mobile client that falls back to secondary servers and accounts if one is down, though I haven’t yet made it public since it’s still unfinished
Sweet. I don’t mind falling back to other instances but I want people keep the subs I have saved. I could make my own instance but I’m not sure if I want to do that. Like maybe I could easily export or import the communities. For right now it’s not a problem cuz I’m not subbed to a lot but if I have 20.i don’t want to try to add them one by one to other instances
