      wouldn't it be possible to regularly backup one's whole !statusnet instance completely with sth like tar or rsync/dirvish-> prevent any loss

        @mcscx yes, I will start doing something like this. For a microblogging site with hundreds of posts flowing in everyday, a daily backup is the way to go. I was keeping weekly backups.

        @mcscx I am someahwt familiar with # , but I have to figure out a way to automate backups. my hosting provider claims to be able to create backups with some cpanel tool, but I don’t feel comfortable about it. Their statusnet backups were broken.

          I use dirvish as a full-backup & archiving frontend to rsync, for my !linux boxes. I dont have VPS's though. But config isnt very intuitive.

            @mcscx for my local machines I use both Déjà Dup and rscyc to make two backups. But I am yet to learn how to automate things on a server …
