I anticipate that this is an effort to clamp users into their ecosystem

Oops I just realised I necrobumped this from 5 months ago.

My bad

Hey man, I’d offer to support here but I’ve got about 3 volunteer projects going at once right now + my hobby projects + my full time job.

Is there any way you can throw up a static maintenance page with some basic “We expect to be back online in X hours” when you need to implement stuff like this?

If you need I can throw together a little something that can help with that, but when the instance is down I have no way to know if the instance is gone forever or if its just a temporary upgrade.

Don’t get me wrong, I don’t want to make it seem like I’m ungrateful, I really appreciate you hosting this, and this system is no doubt necessary, but I accidentally got too much work done today because my memes were gone and it made my day worse :)

Alternatively, don’t fix what ain’t broken.
