Checked Fediverse Observer and whole bunch of server has been decommissioned because of which users can’t login and because they can’t login , Lemmy is losing active users. Any plans to fix this ? I am more concerned about the content thats lost.

    The content shouldn’t be gone as long as that server was federated with somewhere?

    It will be more difficult to get to IMO - you’ll have to either use a search engine, or query the lemmy resolve object (rs) api method on random instances until you hit one that has the federated content AFAICT.

    Images are definitely lost though unless they’re uploaded to a third party that is still operational

        I was under the impression that only thumbnails/lower res copies were federated, rather than the full high-res original - if that’s changed then that’s great 👌
