Can confirm, lol

People will gravitate to those instances run by talented devs.

Eh, people gravitate to where everyone else is. Half of the fediverse doesn't realize federation means, you can read/post to most communities from most instances, bar federation issues. They see, OH HEY, Lemmy World has the most posts. I want to go where all of the posts are.

People RUN from instances, whenever the instance starts breaking, and the admins show their ineptitude. Either that, or when instances start clicking the defederation button too much.

He said it’s all legal

I mean, if I were trying to recruit people into an illegal pyramid scheme, that is what I would say too.

clap

Another mega-instance is formed, with lots of people grouped together, to make a big target.

Perhaps one day, everyone will discover what "Federated" means.

less posts doesn't really matter. lol. Everything is federated.

Partly due to the fact..... lemmy itself, basically has no moderation or administration features at all....

So, the only way to assist with that issue, is stricter enforcement up-front.

Besides, if someone doesn't wanna take the time to have a verified email, and literally type 49 when registering an application.... I really don't wanna take the time to worry about having to potentially worry about them being spammers/etc.

I never noticed outages stopping

I am in the same boat. If it were not for these posts, I'd have never noticed lemmy world was down.

If I post to, or put a comment on something from lemmy world, it will just federate over when it's back online.

If someone posts to something on lemmy world, it will eventually federate over my way.

But, hey, everyone is gonna fuss when they decided to put all of their eggs in one basket and now, that one basket gets targeted. (metaphor for lemmy world.)

This is the solution I use as well.

Although, rclone is also a viable solution.

safest encrypted cloud service these days

None. Use your own encryption keys, and pre-encrypt your data.

If the cloud provider I use for storing my backups got pwned, the attacker would gain access to.... well, nothing, without my private keys. And- if you follow the 3.2.1. rule, you would lose nothing, because you have at least two other copies.

Yup. Where I live we have seen down to -20F (during that time texas almost lost their power grid) and up to 115F.

Its currently 110F. Aka, hot.

Or, -28c to 46C. Currently 43C. And 40% humidity. Feels horrible.

If, I were a customer- I would be leaving for sure.

When- you pay a cloud vendor, you are generally paying to ensure a few things....

1. That this stuff doesn't happen.
2. That when this type of stuff does happen, they have a recovery plan / working backups.

And, when this hit the news, and I discovered they are owned by a company with a stake in cyber-security, I'd be jumping to a replacement pretty quickly... and staying far away from this company.

rethink their security from the ground-up.

After reading the post, I don't think they did any thinking at all for their security.... or redundancies, access controls.... etc.....

yea, that was my thoughts as well.... Lol, I wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole.

I'd give it 5 years.... and I'll prob have a petabyte of all flash...

5 years should be enough time to start finding enterprise all-flash arrays on ebay, right?

I have a single server pushing 140t, and 10t or so scattered between my other servers.

Assuming you shower after every poop!

Must be in California or near Houston? Or another large city I assume.

But, yea. Prices are doubled everywhere. Pre covid, I was getting ready to build a brand new 3k Sq ft house for around 200-300k.

Can't even touch the plot of land for that right now. And... the price to build is basically doubled too.

I'd recommend either staying with parents, or finding a roommate right now.

Or, checkout some of the van builds. I'd totally live in one if I didn't have a full family to support.

Anyone who buys property currently is going to lose a LOT of money in the next year or so... so, I'd highly recommend to not buy... unless you don't mind paying 250,000 for something worth 120,000.

Oh, that's some bullshit then.

If you prefer instead, I can sell you my house at its current inflated value.

Can't sell it cheaper then the jacked up value, because then I can't afford another house.
