Maybe something for https://lemmy.dbzer0.com ?
Wouldn't https://lemmy.film or https://selfhosted.forum be better? Even https://libretechni.ca
https://libretechni.ca/ is also down on my site, is the site supposed to be up?
It's back up! 🎉
Oh nice! Only one admin though
Is one admin bad?
If he decides to shut down the project, or something happens to him, the server will probably go down with him.
See vlemmy.net, lemmy.film, iusearch.fyi, and so on
Aha, makes sense. Though my beloved tf went down and that had multiple admins at one point.
Single admin instances are fragile instances. One person is a single point of failure.
But if the primary admin buggers off with the hosting and/or domain, doesn't that kill all instances?
Not if the instance has a backup admin who can take over hosting, domain, etc, which most large instances do. Very small instances usually have a poor bus factor.
