As you reading are undoubtedly aware now, the Lemmy.one instance experienced a massive failure this weekend. Unfortunately the data was not in a recoverable state, so the server was restored from a July 26th backup, and data after that time is likely lost.
Since this occurred while I was out of town, I haven’t had the time to collect all the details of what happened, so I will have to post more information at a later time.
Thank you for your hard work none-the-less.
I had a feeling it was just that. I heard rumbles about some type of issue in the lemmy software itself; although I don’t know the exact details. It appears similar problems happened to other instances as well; so don’t take it too hard…several massive instances did in fact crash.
I noticed lemmy.world started displaying the same server error as lemmy.one a day or so after (I switched over to that instance after this one had issues).
Thanks for the hard work and expense of hosting. Appreciate it
Thanks for your work on this instance!
I never used mastodon so much in my life.
Same! 😅 huge thanks to @jonah@lemmy.one for bringing lemmy.one back online. I wasn’t ready to mourn the loss of my fediverse homepage.
Thank you for your hard work! I love this instance the best.
