Everybody probably noticed the big Facebook outage.
That’s what happens with centralized social media, that has a single point of attack.
Time to search for a decentralized alternative.
Good thing there is the #fediverse!
Fedi what?
Let me explain:
I love Mastodon, I also have a profile on mastodon.online. Not a personal one, but for an organization.
But Mastodon can also go down, by even lower level issues. Last month I personally had to poke the devs on Discord about an expired Let’s Encrypt certificate on mastodon.online 
An instance can go down, but not the whole Fediverse.
True, but your profile is hosted on just one instance, right? 
So in that case it was down, by a very stupid error. Not saying that Mastodon isn’t great. Just saying that if they had the load of Facebook, we probably would see more issues over there.
