So was I.
Although my account back then was on a now dead instance. 😔
I think I was on kbin.social
I was on feddit.de (RIF).
Are the bins even with us anymore? Don’t think i have seen them in a while.
The poster you’re replying to is on a bin, lol
lmao
I was only shown the name, no instance. But good to know those are still around.
Yeah, Fedia.io and kbin.earth are probably the two biggest.
the end of feddit.de is surely a cautionary tale by now.
Do tell. Bitte.
There was once a lone server admin who ran the show and but everything was good.
Then people came, we don’t tell from where, and the users and amount of posts increases, the lone server admin no longer could handle all of that themself and asked some mods to co-admin the instance. Everything was good again
Then the server admin took a well deserved vacation, to an unknown location. But the co admins could handle the administrative stuff. Everything seemed good.
Then bugs were detected. Updates were needed. Harddisks ran full. The dreaded /pictrs issue arose and caused PTSD. Required keys and permissions were not granted to the co admins. But hope remain that the server admin returns from their vacation…
they never returned…
the migration to a new instance was costly,
the fate of that server admin? shrouded in mysteries.
