I don’t know who needs to hear this, but the instance mastodon.social is 30% of the entire #Fediverse. If it ever goes down for any reason, a huge chunk of the Fediverse will go down.
It defeats the purpose of having a fully decentralized network if most people pile into a single instance. 
@Oregon_Pacifist I remember at one point they actually closed social to new sign ups to force people to join other instances.
I feel like they need to do this again or switch the default signup server to something else for at least a time.
This is a bonfire demo instance for testing purposes. This is not a production site. There are no backups for now. Data, including profiles may be wiped without notice. No service or other guarantees expressed or implied.
