[Question] resilience to downtime (lemmy.sdf.org)

I'm looking for input on how well Lemmy responds to occasional downtime of up to a few days, specifically regarding how federation recovers after such an event.

Basically looking to know how amenable it is to selfhosting via reverse proxy from dodgy setups which are the best some of us proles can manage. I try to run some services where I can but my situation inevitably results in an event or three per year, on average, with some days down.

Outgoing federation actions are kept for 7 days. So if your instance is down shorter than that it will catch up with everything.

Good to know, thanks!
