For those affected by these outages in the larger servers and who'd be interested in helping spread around: my instance will be free for the first 250 registrations. There are ~220 spots still left.
The catch is that my registration process is (purposefully) difficult to avoid squatters/spammers/bots. So you need to do one of the following:
- sign up to my main portal site first. If you do that, please give your email address so that I can send a confirmation with the first credentials.
- signup to communick.news directly, and send me a DM on reddit (/u/rglullis), or here, or on mastodon) with the username you used to signup. If you don't send the DM, I will assume it's a bot and will deny the application.
Edit: downvoters, please don't be so cynical. I've been offering this even before the reddit blackout. What is so bad about it?
