It occurred to me that many, if not most #Mastodon instances are run by one person who maintains the server infrastructure (not just an admin Mastodon account). That leaves large chunks of the fediverse with a Bus Factor of 1, meaning if that one owner was suddenly hit by a bus and died, there would be no one left to maintain an instance.Ideally, an instance should have at least two trusted people in geographically separate areas who can maintain the server infrastructure.Please boostthis post and tag your instance admin in a reply to see how they are mitigating this risk.cc: @jerry @stux #Mastodon #AdminsOfMastodon #RiskManagement #DisasterRecovery #InfoSec

@stux @seanthegeek @jerry But remember, you wait ages for a bus fatality and then three turn up at once.
