Fediverse didn’t have outages :)
Certainly there must be some fediverse servers hosted on AWS.
We’re distributed, though. No single point of failure, and I’d imagine many of the instance owners already had an anti-Amazon bent to begin with.
a lot of the issues were around specifically DNS for the managed dynamo DB. fediverse apps typically use postgres, and most people are probably running on a Linux VPS instead of cloud architecture
Yeah, my internet usage is mostly fediverse, word games, and ao3, none of which were affected
The internet started out as a network of like, 7 computers. Then it expanded to millions. Now it seems we are back to 7 again.
The Internet is not something that you just dump something on. It’s not a big truck. It’s a series of tubes.
