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.

Unpin this. It’s 3 months old.

Are we having a server failure today? I seem to have no ability to post comments.

And there is lies the point of failure. If we generate posts and so on…will they also disappear if a particular lemmy server disappears?

No - the posts and comments you make are copied to other federated servers
