Nice, I’d seen you’d stopped a while ago but I’ll look at hosting it if it’s back alive.

It is :)
Just can’t be beaten for price/quality at this scale
I mean they’ll probably benefit from some sort of CDN, and CF being free really helps keep costs down. Are there alternatives you’d suggest?
It kind of amazes me that they’ve not been using one up until recently given their size. I’m anti-lemmy.world but I do sympathise with their technical issues.
My understanding (from running an instance) is that this isn’t something cloudflare is going to help with, it’s the database on these instances locking up. It happens to my and multiple other instances too, and i have monitoring from multiple sources so I get notified and can restart the server/docker containers. Improvements should come in the next lemmy versions.
There is also plemmy https://github.com/tjkessler/plemmy
As hyped as I am - never preorder!
We’re building a Starfield community over at [email protected] if anyone wants to join.
I’ve created one over at [email protected] - you’re welcome to come over.
There are additional costs that aren’t factored in (although they’re not specifically lemmy, and I pay for them myself rather than use donations) such as a very cheap vps for our status.lemmy.zip page and i got a 3 year deal for an external email provider for less than some email providers wanted a month.
Our server is the same one feddit.uk use (a hetzner auction server) although lemmy.zips I think was a touch more expensive per month. But it’s got a lot of room for growth.
Also we now host all our backups offside too, which adds a little on top. I’ll probably cover this in the next server update.
