@liaizon I announced the closure of both well ahead of time but Betamax got killed earlier than anticipated because of a database issue during upgrade. Sorry if it caught you by surprise. I did a better job at closing banana.dog

@rgb really bummed bu this. I had some stuff unbacked up that was there. I have had a few instances I had accounts on mastodon go down but this was the first I had a bunch of stuff on peertube. I saw no warnings from anywhere. Did you attempt to email people who were on your instance?

@liaizon I did server announcements and tried reaching out to active users. DM me your username on there and I can prob recover the data

@rgb do you have any plans for reusing the domain? I was happy with the instance and would take on the hosting of it if there was a way to get it back up

@liaizon Let me think about it. I am not 100% sure the instance is recoverable as even before it was backed up the server it was running on was already failing and that combined with a bad peertube upgrade left the instance not really working.

@rgb where did you announce the closure? did you send out an email to the people who had signed up for your instance?
