It seems like they are down for a longer time now. How will they recover? Does longer down mean they will have to do more catching up with other instances? Can I get updates somewhere?
Used Reddit for 13 years, tried out Kbin and Lemmy yesterday and settled on Lemmy.
Long story short, I'm going back to Reddit.
I initially setup an account on Lemmy.world, then realized that I couldn't migrate it to another server and that when I deleted that account on that server all my comments were deleted.
With a large corporation, they have the staff and resources to secure and maintain the servers physically and digitally, and keep staff up-to-date on current infosec threats and get out in front of them. Beyond that, if there IS a breach, they have the ability to recognize it, understand the legalities and requirements of reporting it, and can be held accountable by regulatory bodies. Joe doesn't have the resources to really maintain and keep a server running, nor the knowledge of his responsibilities for keeping the data safe digitally or physically.
On top of that, if Joe's basement loses power/gets hacked/Joe decides he's moving to San Fransisco and can't bring his NAS with him and the server goes down, and that's where my instance is hosted well there goes my entire account/comments/data.
