Hey all! You may have noticed that Wayfarers' Haven has been down. I noticed, too, but didn't have time to get to it until the weekend.

It turns out that the docker images had become so bloated that there was no longer enough disk space to do anything at all. A simple docker system prune -a --volumes sorted that right out and I'll set a cron job to handle that going forward.

With that said, this simple issue showed the vulnerabilities of an instances with a single admin. I'm sorry for the downtime and confusion. Personally, I'll be creating a backup user on other instances using this tool: https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
