It was a fun ride and I’m so glad offered to step in and fill a gap I felt I could no longer maintain myself. I’m sure you will all love his platform. I have worked with him to make the transition for sellers as seamless as possible.

Dear thanks for fucking changing the content type header response on some of your APIs to capitalize “json” to “JSON” therefore breaking the decoder inside of your node SDKs Becuase it expects it to be fucking lowercase.

Also we keep our backups on a totally separate hosting provider in a different geographical location than our regular servers so even if DO shut down everything we can still access our backups.

What about purchases made after our daily backup? If we can rebuild them from our payment providers we would (all ones from stripe can definitely be rebuilt and most ones from PayPal). Any purchases we could not rebuild would be refunded and the sellers paid for them anyway.

In light of the fires at @OVHcloud Datacenter I just want to remind people backups are a must. Packix does at least 1 backup a day and has a Disaster Recovery Plan, to be running in 12 hours again from scratch if @digitalocean somehow lost the entire DC we are in.

How do we do this with so many custom DO services? They are all composed with terraform and any data we put into a third party DO service is also stored in our database that is the only piece of Packix that has to then be backed up.
