If reddit magically goes back and fixes it's API issues, will this instance stay supported? Same question, but if the subreddit opens up (with NSFW or as normal?). Hoping the answer is yes, but wasn't sure what the plan was there.

I'm also not sure how technically this all works. For instance, I'm reading this on kbin, but obviously you guys have your own instance that is federated on pathofexile-discuss.... but what happens to the content if your instance goes down (or in the opposite direction, say it got so popular you couldn't afford to keep it up?).

Sorry for 20 questions! Trying to learn more in both cases while supporting the effort.

I plan to keep it up. It does cost a decent bit every month, but with Cloudflare caching most requests, it's not too bad. The place I need more help from is moderators that are familiar with the fediverse and PoE, currently it's just me This community is really cool, so it's really just banning bots or people coming here to post rude stuff and then leave.

If this instance goes down, I believe any content kbin or other sites have mirrored stays up, but new posts wouldn't be visible

If it costs too much I'll set up a Patreon or something, I already have a private one that covers maybe 80% of discord bot costs, but I don't post it anywhere because I don't want to ever profit off of this
