Okay, I have to come clean about this. I haven't opened lemmy.ml for over a month at least and everybody has to be curious about why my instance is down.

I did several screw-ups and accidentally deleted the instance from my server. Luckily I had made database backups beforehand. Now I have faced several problems regarding reinstallation and restoring the backups. I have been in a kind of hurry because of job searching and several other things.

Regardless, I'm not burying Sopuli.xyz and I'm not having a Hetzner VPS for nothing. If this means starting from scratch, so be it.
