It's sad to see instances shut down without warning, I'm working on a short term and long term plan

The short term plan: Personal Archive Node (PAN) - The Mini-PDS

PAN will work with Pixelfed, Loops, Mastodon and other projects, and you can self-host or use a trusted PAN server, giving you peace of mind knowing *most* of your data is easily recoverable + migratable to another server, should you ever need it ✨

The long term plan: Personal Data Vault (PDV) - DID Layer for ActivityPub
