Hello.

Is there a way to subscribe different accounts from different instances to the same communities? So if one instance fails, you would have a similar account on another instance, being able to access everything.

It would be nice if there was a tool that would allow me to do that. Although I would have to run it manually every day.

Thank you :D

Yep! Just follow the communities you want on both accounts! As long as they remain federated, you should be okay despite any downtime! Aside from the instance that's down, of course!

But is there an automatic way to do it?

Someone posted this a bit ago. I used it and it worked. Not mine. Use at your own risk. I didn't find any malware but you know how it is.
