They're back!
-
The slrpnk.net server went down and the admin wasn’t able to physically get to the server to fix the issue. It appears it came back up quicker than anticipated.
Much quicker, I think they were talking like July lol

Thanks for the warm welcome 🥳

Glad they're back

Cool to see you back!

Woool our friends are back!
-
We're elated to be back in business. Brace yourself, my shitposting itch has gone unabated for a while now.

Slrpnk.net was my first Lemmy server! I had absolutely NO IDEA how it worked, but I was motivated by my recent departure from Facebook and Twitter.
When they went down, it kinda felt like when you go to a party with someone and it's all their friends, and then your date vanishes into thin air, and your choices are leaving the party or making awkward convo with a rodent of unusually large size by the punchbowl...

Congrats!
-
So happy to be home again ^^

I'm ready.

Not being able to participate anywhere on Lemmy merely because my home instance was down didn't feed very federated
Is there anything I can do to guard against that issue in the future? Is there a way to mirror an account between two instances or something?
Anyway, big props to the slrpnk admins for getting the instance back online quicker than expected. Your hard work is definitely not unappreciated or unnoticed.

Open an alt, export/import your settings

It's possible to export your Subscriptions, Community/instance blocks, and saved posts/comments to an account on a different instance by exporting your account's JSON file, which you can do in your Account Settings page.
You can then import the JSON file in that same area on your alternative backup account, so that your experience is uninterrupted. Personally I would recommend making a backup account on Sopuli.xyz or Lemmy.cafe, they'll give you the most similar vibe due to how their instances are set up.

I have alts. No automatic sync, but you can list your alts in your profile like I do.
On mobile make sure to use a client which makes it easy to switch between accounts (I use Thunder, which additionally shows server status in the account switcher!)

Yaaaaay, welcome back y'all!

You guys are the best. Thanks for the warm welcome back.
This post was actually how I learned slrpnk.net was back online.
