pump.io/tryit is down

[abliss]

Every pump server I've found so far exhorts me thus: "No pump.io account yet? Try it!" with a link to http://pump.io/tryit , but this link seems to be dead.

It's because most of the servers it redirects to are down. Nothing we can do about that.

Try datamost.com.

It would seem reasonable to cull the dead servers from the tryit list?

FYI I was able to create an account on datamost, but very little of the site seems to actually work.

@oshepherd yeah, I'm not sure. I've thought about it and have left them there since we're planning to transfer them to community owners which should improve uptime a lot. That's taking long enough that I would support removing "dead" servers, but there's also the problem of how to actually define that - most of the E14N servers aren't dead all of the time...

FYI according to https://pumpstatus.strugee.net (which isn't public yet; see phpservermon/phpservermon#51) the only E14N node that's up besides identi.ca is fmrl.me.

I sent a pull request that may help to improve the situation: pump-io/pump-io.github.io#4

This is fixed in the website.
