My best #maintained and backed up system? Not my personal PC, not my #nextcloud server, and definitely not my personal blog (does it even still exist?).

But my/our #minecraft server, used by 3-5 people.

It has a #backup script with a password-protected download page, #automated offsite rendering of the map using #OverViewer several times a day, and even a #CI/CD #pipeline for the server's own #website.

@hkrn long overdue!

IMHO all #Software that's not being #maintained nor #licensed anymore should be legally forced to become #FLOSS!

Sometimes, you need a less than flattering #review on your #pullrequest to bring yourself down to earth and find a better implementation that you and your #team can live with. Whiz bang #clever scripts that work are nice. #Boring scripts that work and can be #maintained by more people than just yourself are better. But the #failed #experiments are staying, just moved out of the way, so we can #learn from them.
