Thank you for the invitation, your efforts, and your financial commitment.

Servers will come and go, and for many reasons. Those to whom computers are black boxes will come, get lost, be easily discouraged, and go elsewhere. For the fediverse to supplant the dominant, monolithic platforms, it has to be stable and simple to use.

I'm insufficiently conversant to discuss the 'how' of making things secure and redundant. Maybe a p2p architecture, I don't know. But something along those lines that would have the fediverse resistant to decay.

I had restarted the lost community before receiving your kind offer. But if I start another, it will be here.

And again, thank you for all you're doing.

Is the banana making an observation or a demand?

I'm not familiar with your setup, but you may find help at:

There are more Apple oriented communities listed in their sidebar.

And this is the OP upload. https://files.catbox.moe/44f2zd.mp4

Good luck!

Hail yes, it's intentional! I don't even know who "Eisenhauer" would be. There is a well known Eisenhower, however. The whole thing's a shitpost! :-)))

What system are you using?

I can download in Android by right clicking my mouse.

Since it'll take the cock and pullet, your point checks out.

Maybe they're Amish.

This topic is of extreme importance to the success of widespread adoption of the fediverse.

And I'm not seeing much discussion about it, despite having posted about it elsewhere, As an aside, I can't atm log in to the account where I brought this up, due to instability, or maybe a ddos. No telling, but that I can't log in shows a weakness that the general users won't tolerate. I suspect I've lost another account, along with the community I created and the attendant work, when a fmhy.ml went offline.

While non-tech people will come, there's a good chance they'll leave when lemmy.fmhy.ml, for example, disappears, taking their community and all their contributions with it.

There are many reasons why servers and domains will evaporate. And users will emigrate from an unstable, unreliable environment.

Redundancy and backup are critical. Maybe p2p is the solution, I don't know. The fix is above my pay grade.

But this weakness will be exploited. Pissed off instance owners, blackhats working for moneyed interests to whom the fediverse represents a multi-billion dollar threat, drive failures, lightning strikes, the 'how' doesn't matter. It's simply a matter of 'when,' and what will result.

This concept must become more resilient in order to be viable over the long term.
