Geektoshi geek@getalby.com 6 months ago Sounds right. Noticed some wonky behavior with a few popular repays which I chalked up to the outage.
marcan0 _@marcano.io 6 months ago That’s pretty awesome considering we’re 80% off aws. I doubt other “protocols” could say the same.
ChadF and 33 others chadf@nostrplebs.com 6 months ago Yeah but that was just one AWS center that went down but I did hear it's a major one.
marcan0 _@marcano.io 6 months ago true. us-east-1 is one of the largest data centers... either way. relays are easy to run. proof that they can be resilient and run anywhere...
Derek Ross derekross@grownostr.org 6 months ago That's surprising, but honestly pretty good seeing as running a relay and making it accessible from the outside world isn't all that easy just yet.
