feddit.de has been giving “Server error” for some time but I read that the server is still working when using a Lemmy app. Tried the Photon front-end today and choosing feddit.de as instance.

My question (I’m just curious, I have no account on feddit.de) is : Can an alternative front-end on their server co-exist with the other server software ? I guess it would be a matter of installing Photon and then point nginx configuration to that. Or am I missing something crucial ?

    ran full without anyone noticing

    alarm system, but one you WILL notice when it goes off even if you ignore all emails

    I’m slightly confused. They will notice it, but somehow it still happened without anyone noticing? I feel like I lost something in that text. 😅 What makes that trick such a good alarm system?

      The alarm is that your server stops working, which you will definitely notice.
      But you can get it working again simply by deleting the file.
