Error

We can’t thank y’all enough for putting in the energy, money, and time to keep this thing running. Amazed that there haven’t been more outages given the circumstances and how unstable Lemmy still is at this point in its development. Thanks a ton!

Haha there’s like 10 outages a day 😂 most people just don’t notice.

Not sure outage is the right word though, it’s that our status.programming.dev provider (pulsetic) reports an outage. Hyperping also reports several a day. It’s usually just a 500 so something is happening but I’m not sure what.

The server was now too full of data to do anything,

This reminds me of something that I always mean to do but totally forget to.
Allocate 1gb of space for a blank/dummy file on every VM I run.
When you run into a VM that locks up due to disk space, delete (or resize) the file, get to work fixing the VM, then put the empty file back

Oh that’s a good idea lol.
