Probably a two hour window to give me time to get things done. There may be an upgrade to lemmy 0.19.11 however that requires some modification of ZippyBot due to changes in the new version.

There will be downtime while the server is restarted, however hopefully this is brief.

Thanks

    Yeah, I hadn’t realized that but you’re right. I originally come from the old dead kbin.social instance. I just checked an old community and I can see the posts, but new comments there don’t propagate to other instances.

    I wonder if there’s any solution to that. Lemmy admins can move threads between communities, but I don’t know if that works across instances. I wonder if a whole community from a dead instance could be moved to another instance by mass-moving all threads.

      I think it is more of a limitation of activitypub and DNS. Any work around for this would be cutting out the original server which would likely be a major security risk.

      Honestly what it should do is warn users when a instance is down and maybe even lock the community if it is without a local mod for to long. Maybe it could warn after is it down for a hour and then lock after 6 hours.
