Edit: unexpectatly we are back online. Will share how we found a solution later. There might be still some federation issues though.

Alt account of poVoq@slrpnk.net here.

Our instance is currently down and I can't get remote access to the servers. It appears that there might have been a hardware failure of the main firewall, which is the one thing I can't work around remotely.

I am still trying a few things, but I am not very optimistic that I can get access.

The really unfortunate part is that just now I am on one of my rare work deployments abroad, so I also can't access it physically during the next few weeks and my usual back up that could restart it is not available either.

As something like that never happened in 3 years operating the servers, I thought I can risk it, but murphy's law seems inescapable 😓

I will try to keep you posted here on any updates, but probably there will not be much I can do for a while. Really bad timing 😥

Edit: we might use this "opportunity" to migrate the instance to Piefed, which has been an idea for quite some time now. I will keep you posted on that.

Yeah, but at least I have not disappeared yet 😅

I see you understand the allusion.

I did not, can you give me a hint ?

The feddit.de admin disappeared on a work trip to Japan. At least that is the official story.

Evil tongues claim he is in North Korea.
