On the Divolt, Zinklog said he should've made a post before they pulled the plug. But the vulnerability seemed scary. Which I can't blame em for. No other official word to my knowledge though
Oh yes I actually agree with that decision. Better safe than sorry.
But I was worried about the information blackout. I feared the admins got hacked and locked out of the server.
I'm not familiar with Divolt. Can you browse without being registered? If not, maybe we need a more public backup channel? Dunno, maybe on Mastodon or on another Lemmy instance?
Today I even checked the fmhy sub on Reddit but there was nothing there.
Mastodon place for announcement would probably be ideal than another lemmy instance in case a vulnerability that affects them all causes issues.
Agreed, I'd also like Mastodon ๐
I'm going to need look up the different contacts available to keep in the loop on instances I like in case something happens again. Don't want to have to go back to reddit to try and find news on their status haha
Good idea, yeah. I'm a bit worried about the instance-goes-boom scenario, but I understand this basically comes with the package in the fediverse.
About Reddit, well lol the more I'm on Lemmy the less I'm inclined to go back. spez really did the magic with his BS, eh? ๐
Yeah, my most treasured subs started their own instances here with fmhy and piracy, so I've been fine without reddit. Just need to secure those alternate communication channels and I'll be able to not go back to Spez.
Awesome. My dream is that more and more people manage to do the same, so spez (and all the other big tech CEOs) learn their lesson the hard way.
