Hi and thanks for running this instance.

As devops/infra guy, few technical things sprang into mind:

  • are there any (hw) redundancies at server side?
  • what happens if current admin gets hit by a bus?
  • if instance dies permanently, what happens to its users and posts?
  • is the vps virtual or real?
  • if the vps is compromised or something explodes, are there any off-site backups?

Thanks.

I’m not trying to be overly dismissive of your concerns, but aren’t most instances run on some dude’s spare computer for shits and giggles? I wouldn’t expect continuity or risk management at all. But also, nothing is lost but a little convenience if one disappears.
