What happened?
Our SSL certificate expired, which rendered our instance unusable - that is, no content would load.
Why'd it happen?
We're not 100% sure. NGINX Proxy Manager is supposed to renew the certificate automatically, but it didn't. I'm suspecting this has something to do with how I've set it up. I'll need a bit of time to investigate further.
Why'd you take soo long to fix it?
Busy with IRL work, and didn't notice it. I haven't had time to jump onto Lemmy in the last 24 hours.
What steps are you taking to ensure this doesn't happen again?
I'll be adding the Lemmy instance to my UptimeKuma server to monitor the cert expiry, and give me notice before it expires. If I can't figure out why it's not renewing automatically, I'll renew the certificate before it expires again.
