I totally understand, and it’s a valid concern. Without knowing anything about the admins who run this instance, it’s entirely possible that monitoring isn’t in place, or it is in place but notifications aren’t setup, or that is the case but people can’t respond to problems because they are at their day job, or they are responding to problems but solving those problems takes hours.. I’m speaking from personal experience running smaller projects for others. I was always very thankful to have users who understood these concerns, and I guess I try to gently remind users about the realities of the volunteer-run projects.
