    Hey there! Thanks for your work.
    It sucks, the fire was really unexpected and unwanted. I hope your server was in another building.

      Thanks :) Luckily we have like 3 different backup methods going on rn haha, so we’re able to resurrect lemmy very quickly like this if necessary.

        Cool! This might be a prompt for an AMA on the backup strategy you use.
        I would really like to know how you manage all that data.

        edit: of course, when things will have settled down a bit!
