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.

Two admins recently gave up and shut down their servers, which is another thing to consider. Some kind of export / archive tool might be useful. Not sure if importing would be a thing due to resources it would take, but who knows.
