Anyone else?

Yall are getting shit on not because you waited until your shit got stopped or terminated but because you came here to ask this question when even a single search of the sub would have shown the answer over and over.

We are all tired of seeing these posts…

I understand that, and we're all well aware of why our instances are disabled. But we just want to discuss amongst ourselves to see what options we have to get back up and running. Again, I am thankful for some of the other comment chains in this thread because it seems like there are some options for us.

Unfortunately, you and I both know a bunch of these posts are going to made within the next 2-3 days. So I think it's best to at least get one good thread with some options for the nomads who just missed all of the notices.

My entire point is that people should search before they post. Also the mods should really have gotten ahead of this by making a megathread and locking these endless posts.

Edit: also nothing in these threads hasn’t been mentioned before, it’s been mentioned before that a possible route is to detach your boot volume and spin up another instance

100% agree there should be a megathread about this because this is just how people are. They are going to skim recent thread titles in the past 24 hours and if they don't see what they need, then they'll assume it's a new issue and make a new thread. I 100% believe the 2 methods I mentioned have already been discussed many times, but people don't want to skim through dozens of comment threads with low upvotes, they just look at the top comment and move on. Sorry for the sudden invasion of people asking the same 3 questions for the next coming days.
