Really this is just a general remark, not something specially related to slrpnk.net and you are doing an awesome job, that I am grateful I don't have to do. Please don't see it in any form as a criticism of this server!
I am just saying that we should not embrace downtimes as an unavoidable thing or a problem we need to live in order to have a sustainable world. Resilience is also an important aspect of solarpunk.
It's fine, no offense taken.
But what I mean is that resiliance often doesn't mean better uptime, but having alternatives at hand and knowing what to do in case of an outage.
Yes, it changes the criterion from "uptime of a server" to "uptime of a service" and that's why I mention that the fediverse and even the old discussions on slrpnk.net kept being accessible.
But if we went to let go of the old world, we can't have the back thought of "you know, worst case I'll host that on a google drive, I know that one will be up". We need to get to this last mile.
