A heads-up regarding down-time
Summary: The datacentre of our server will change soon; expect some downtime (Gemini and IPFS unaffected)
SOME time soon the physical server of Techrights will need to be moved from one datacentre to another (the current datacentre is shutting down for good). Nothing will change, except perhaps some IP addresses, and duration of downtime is expected to be a couple of hours. In that period of time the IRC network will also be down (same physical machine), but it will be back online at around the same time as the site.

In terms of uptime, we haven’t done too badly. 126 days since the last downtime.
So, in summary, if some time this coming month there’s a long downtime, then it is likely intentional and scheduled. Given sufficient leeway or advance notice, we might even give a heads-up before the server starts its journey. The downside with such things may be, if you post a message about a site going offline and immediately (or shortly) after that the site does go offline, who’s actually going to see that message? So we forewarn readers as early as today. █
