@KitaitiMakoto@bookwor.ms all three support an outgoing queue, so failed requests will be retried later. the queue lifetime varies, so it depends on each instance's settings, but if you're only down an hour or two, you can generally expect to not lose anything. it can take a few hours for posts to come in again (just whenever it decides to retry) and the timeline may appear with old posts at the top while it's catching up
