    Maybe shut it down for one week / few days for people to get the point then restore for backups

    Ha Ha Ha, If that would work, the world would be a better place.

    Call me lazy but moving services is real pain. I lost many client when i told them we r moving to another server(moved previously from Hostmantis) ask them to change NS etc. When @jar announce that he will shut down services from 1st july i was bit relaxed and scheduled the migration on 15th may and notified the clients. Lesson learned.

    ? It’s all online. Don’t listen to these guys they’re just screwing with you 😂

    It’s statistically unlikely to go down again before the shutdown date, but if it does I won’t be far away.

    Off topic, but just curious if I am hosting clients especially paying ones at that, then I just don't rely on the provider's DNS service, I either set up my own with Scaleway and Vultr for redundancy, or I am with a managed DNS service like CF, dsec, cloudns, etc.
    It gives me control over migration, given I have backups for each client syncing with my homelab, It's life, shit happens and you can't expect clints who don't know what to do unless guided over phonecall to update nameservers or what not.

    And seriously, i respect @jar a lot for continuing a failing service as long as he can if it was me i would be long migrated everyone to a slow cheap $10/m server for three month and sunset the packages, i mean one needs to earn a profit or at least breakeven to continue offering something. One can't continue operations from their out-of-pocket expenses for long before going bankrupt and depressed.
