Can We Move Our Servers To Canada?
The first server cluster FediHost setup was in New York but with the trade war ramping up in recent months @paige@canadiancivil.com has been wondering: How easy is it to create additional clusters? What about moving our servers to Canada?
Watch this half-technologically literate patriot propose weeks of work to @kini@maro.xyz, is it possible? Is it realistic?

in reply to FediHost Video • • •I'm currently looking for a non US hosted instance. I'm not interested though, in a US instance with a promise of a free move "one day".
I need to see no US involvement in 1. The company (eg. Fedihost) 2. Server locations 3. The server company 4. Payment provider (preferably accept wire trans / privacy crypto not run by US corp to avoid Visa / Mastercard).
When ANYONE can offer this, even if it costs a reasonable amount more, I'm 100% onboard and shouting from the roof tops!

in reply to FediHost Video • • •I watched the whole video, but maybe I missed something? At the start of the video it sounded like you'd already moved, but when watching further through, it sounds like you're still looking for a CDN outside the US that can accommodate you? I would consider the CDN being US based as still relying on US based servers.
Was there something else I missed?

in reply to Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️ • • •It's a bit unclear. At the start of the video you say "We did it" but then there's no clarification of which parts have been changed.
Is it that there is an option to choose a server outside the US? Or are *all* the servers now outside the US? And are you also now using a non US company door your CDN?
If you could reply clarifying what "we did it" refers to exactly, that would really help!

in reply to Blort™ 🐀Ⓥ🥋☣️ • • •Reading your comments FediHost probably isn't the right choice for you. We're still North Americans in a highly integrated economy and we actually like and hold out a lot of hope for America, we just thought it was prudent to move the core 99% of what "we do" to Canada.
