With the recent willingness of the US Government to pressure its tech agencies into revealing user data without a proper judicial warrant, we've decided it's overdue for us migrate away from Cloudflare.

We'll be transitioning our sites over to https://deflect.ca/ over the next week or so, starting with pixelfed first before doing lemmy and piefed.

I hope to be able to do this without any noticeable downtime, but it is a major config change that will require some backend changes as well. I'll make an announcement before/after and you can always check https://status.fedecan.ca/

Update Feb 16: pixelfed has been migrated to deflect

Update Feb 20: I'm working with deflect on improving performance before migrating lemmy / piefed over. Currently pixelfed load times aren't great due to traffic often hitting edge nodes way out in Europe

Nice job! I just moved my hosting to stormweb.ca and I'm super happy about the switch.

Their basic hosting and storage plans seem good, but I'm always disappointed when I look at any Canadian hosting for VPS prices. I'd love to use a Canadian VPS alongside or instead of my Hetzner VPS - but the prices always seems to be 2-3+x what Hetzner offers.
