Thank you to the admins and those who donated to get this bus back on the road
post
it was down for you guys?
We seem to be missing quite a few months of posts, comments, etc.
EDIT: I'm not referring to the period during downtime. It looks like we're missing a good 7 months of local, instance history prior to that. Will that be backfilled at some point, or was it lost?
So happy to have the home instance back. Here's hoping the missing history resolves itself via federation, but if not, it's still better than being offline
Everything from 9 months ago, including notifications from 9 months ago.
Maybe we had yearly backups?
Gather 'round kids, it's time to open your backups.
I also make my weekly backups roughly every 3 months. Which reminds me I should do it... tomorrow.
Anyway, last time I lost some data it was when memory card I thought I had backed up died. I managed to gather most of the data from another memory card, 2 laptops, old HDD and a backup DVD as most of the files were scattered around other devices.
I'm scared and excited to see what happens when federation finishes
I was startled when I loaded up this instance and it actually came up. From a contributor, thanks to the admins for keeping at it.
