To cut a long story short:
– our hoster lost a server somewhere on a farm, shortly before an update.
– hoster‘s daily backups of a week didn‘t work.
– it was all coincidence.
– this news agency been has been restored with a backup of May 2024. And we are supposed to be lucky.

If you have the opportunity: do not use German tech or infrastructure. Just don´t do that.

Stellt Euch vor, Radio Utopie hätte nie existiert. Die letzten siebzehneinhalb Jahre hätte es nie gegeben – bzw, ohne uns. Einfach alles weg.

Es hätte fast hingehauen. Aber nur fast.
