Hmmm, my blog is throwing 500 errors, that's new, gateway errors have happened before, but not basic 500s. I suspect my blog/Friendica instance might be dead, and while the abruptness is a surprise, its not unexpected. Previously it was hosted with SpaceHost, and something happened over there, at one point there was a reply to a post about billing that it would resume once the lawyers reviewed things. Yeah, that sounds weird, and it was only a couple months later that @gofedi took over the hosting and said the rates would be unchanged… And billing never resumed nor did their site ever switch from coming soon to services offered.
Welp, going to miss some people over there, I had a few very active Diaspora accounts that I'd love to follow or wish could follow me here, but what can one do, Diaspora doesn't share with most of the Fediverse.
I do need to find a host for Wafrn, I was already planning on switching to it, this place is good, but I do prefer to have my own, @admin or @barkmin know of anyone that's offering hosted instances?

@lowqualityfacts @jonahtheprophet Some weird stuff going on. Accounts getting suspended out of the blue, some showing as suspended but are not.. weird.. #FediverseProblems

if everyone can access your data and you can’t simultaneously participate and be in control of it, then it’s not particularly better than a neoliberal capitalist company owning your data.

they still have full access to it.

I was going to suggest going directly to https://mas.to/@hankgreen to make the follow request, but sounds like that won't work either.
