Is it just me or is friendica.world constantly down? It seems to happen several times a day, plus at night. Is there another one that is more stable? I chose Friendica over Mastodon and even Hometown because of the long character limit, local posting, etc. It was supposed to be similar to Facebook. I am not interested in a platform like Twitter, where I can only write 500 characters. I was going to choose Hometown, due to the local posting, but it seemed to have that limit, and Friendica can connect to all sorts of servers which others services in the Fediverse seems not to be able to do. But if it's going to go down several times a day, I will either need to change my instance or change platforms. To those who suggest I start my own server, I know absolutely nothing about that. I'm a refugee from Facebook, now that they're discontinuing the mbasic site. I only found out about this on the fourteenth of this month.

Hello again! Have you had any issues today?

I have been experiencing the same and emailed info@fedihosting.foundation to let them know. I haven't ran into any issues today. They said they had to make a change to the database.

This is a *brand* new server, so I'm hoping it won't take long to get the kinks shaken out.
