    At least the mall of Reddit is open 24/7.

    That new mom and pop down the road seems to close at random times during the day. 😉

        The Walmarts near me haven’t been open 24/7 since the pandemic. Definitely still full of garbage and shitty people, though.

        The instance I use is ran by a bunch of Unix nerds, so I’d expect them to wear their uptime as a badge of honour. I suspect there’s probably a sweet spot for instance size, where it doesn’t hit the biggest scaling problems, but big enough to justify the ongoing effort, rather than obviously being a one-man shop that will vanish when his cheque to Digital Ocean bounces.
