With the prolonged attack on #Canonical servers still affecting updates, I’ve been wondering whether a system like #radicle could maybe help as a secondary mirror and reduce the impact of outages or attacks. I mirror my Codeberg repo to a Radicle seed node to cope with #Codeberg outages. That does not mean I can push when Codeberg is down. The single-source-of-truth issue is still unclear to me, but downloading a pre-attack version should be possible. Pushing new work during an attack is tricky.
