~~Was anyone else unable to connect to slrpnk in the last week or so? Was the server down or was it something on my end?~~

Just saw the other post about the server outage so feel the below is relevant:

Is there a way to make slrpnk more resilient by having community members host mirrors of the instance? I also feel this is in line with the ethos of solarpunk where we'd rather have many decentralised instances that can support each other and provide mutual resilience, rather than a single critical instance.

What are people's thoughts?

(I might be able to volunteer my home server for this if I can cover the requirements)

I add "resilience" by using an alternate lemmy or piefed login (i have one of each for precisely this reason)

Seems like a lot of ballache for the Admin in doing what you suggest ?

yeah I mean I do have an account on another instance but all the communities on this instance are still unavailable while the server is down - but yeah it would be more of a hassle (as any multi-region replication is)
