Many of you don't know, but OpenFreeMap.org is hosted on 2 different servers in 2 different countries: one in Germany and one in Finland. The DNS setup is configured so that if one server is offline, your browser automatically picks the other one.

I also made a tiny script that monitors both servers once per minute and sends me a Telegram notification in case one is down. Normally I don't get anything, but in the last few days, I was getting some errors from the Finnish server. Yesterday it was offline for 18 minutes.
