I also have an account on another instance. The sole admin hasn’t been heard of for three weeks. There don’t seem to have been any mod actions for a month and the instance hasn’t been updated to the latest version.
At the moment I’m more concerned about the admin (I hope they are okay). But what would happen if they don’t show up? I guess eventually the instance would disappear without warning or be defederated if bad actors take over.
Is there anything built in to Lemmy that would allow a takeover if a big instance went under?
Probably like me and our instance, it runs as an extra on a company server, there’s no risk of it going down, it’s negligible for costs.
It’s just been one of the most popular months for vacation, gone on vacation, will update Lemmy instance to latest version when get around to it.
