cmal so it took exactly 1 character to fix my Grav setup
#
cmal (as I thought, I'd mistakenly changed a template name in prod instead of testing, replacing "_" with "/" fixed it lol)

bear what is dns redundancy
#
Loqi It looks like we don't have a page for "dns redundancy" yet. Would you like to create it?
#
bear dns redundancy is when you have two DNS providors listed for your nameservers to allow for failover
#
Loqi ok
#
tantek if your DNS goes down, e.g. linode is having a dns outage - "Investigating - We're aware of domain resolution issues with our Hosted DNS Service and are investigating." status.linode.com, what's the indieweb way of handling that?
#
bear a few methods - pure static app that is on a CDN, having your web server know how to route (which just pushes the redundancy down a layer), static page with progressive enhancement
#
bear you can also not have your dns hosted at the same place as your host service - then at least the lookup will return an IP address if the host service has networking issues
#
rascul i tend to use https://dns.he.net
#
bear even with larger dns providors you can have issues if they have an attack or problem that lasts long enough to have caches expire
#
rascul yep
#
bear that's why I suggest the 2 different providor nameserver approach
#
petermolnar digitalocen provides free dns hosting as well
#
aaronpk Sadly AWS DNS is not free, and adds up when you have a bunch of domains
#
bear yep, I mentioned Route53 just because it is so very hard to take down :)
#
bear (tho AWS itself has done it a couple times this year already)
#
bret https://dns.he.net is free. not sure if it meets your needs
#
bret you can even email their admins

petermolnar !tell GWG these things really shouldn't need to exist: https://wordpress.org/plugins/ssl-insecure-content-fixer/ :( - and it's actually _still_ needed
#
Loqi Ok, I'll tell them that when I see them next
