For the less technical, this is why we can lose instances (lemmy.sdf.org is the most recent one I noticed), but the fediverse will never go away: the fediverse is protocol-based (ActivityPub) like email.
Isnt Lemmy.sdf.org back in the last week or so?
Ah that's awesome, thanks for letting me know. I post to their Seattle community instead of the one on lemmy.world because I prefer to move things off default instances, so I'm excited to get back on my "posting stuff to communities no-one frequents" bullshit.
Thank you for doing that. That's actually very important to the overall health of the Fediverse.
Fuck, his music is good.
