  • I grew up in a tiny mountain valley 1000m above sea level. We had this small ski resort and in winter we would always go there. We could just ski down the street and take the first lift next to the street. This was for 2 months at least the case each winter. Nowadays there isn’t as much snow anymore. The single remaining lift is mostly closed and you could ski down the street on a few days only. And this was just 20 years ago!!

    We have a also a bigger resort around here. There is a slope all the way down to the parking lot. Hasn’t been open in years now😕




  • Very sad to hear but totally understandable. Unfortunately, this will make the centralization of lemmy world even worse.

    How much effort is it actually to host a small instance? I am thinking about hosting one mostly for my self. Mainly because I am interested in the technology. Also my country doesn’t have one so that could be a topic too if there is some interest. But hearing this I am not so sure anymore. I can’t put many hours into it each week just to keep it running.

    My company is making exactly the same mistake right now. I simply can’t understand how a European company can still make itself so dependent on Microsoft at this point. We Devs have raised the issue to our bosses, but there are still a lot of old MS fanboys around. Some people have to learn it the hard way.
