fmhy.ml is gone, due to the ongoing fiasco with mali government taking all their .ml domains back
As such, lemmy.fmhy.ml is also gone, we are currently exploring ways to refederate (or somehow restart federation entirely) without breaking anything substantial
We have backups, so don't worry about data loss (you can view them on other instances anyway)

Currently, we have fmhy.net and are exploring options to somehow migrate, thank you for your patience.

This is precisely why my experiments with servers and internet technology stop whenever a dns is mentioned.

If i need to pay a subscription or otherwise rely on a centralized entity its not independent hosting and my interest in it disappears instantly.

I'm kind of curious about how you think the internet works.

[–] webghost0101@sopuli.xyz 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

It works very different from how i would want it to work for sure. I specified internet technology for a reason though. The creative limit i put on myself is that all systems should remain fully independent with the exception of hardware requirements. Everything remains local for now.

That's a pretty specific requirement but luckily you can host your own VPN and access it on your device and then access the service you're hosting via a local address. So if you do run into this again know that there is a way to circumvent the need to rely on *checks notes* DNS.
