The person I was replying to was concerned about having a back-up account that would be on an instance that wouldn’t be down. Several of the larger instances have had down-times as they’ve struggled to handle the overload, as the commenter found to their dismay.

Putting their back-up account on one of the smaller instances rather than one of the popular ones would give that person the stability they are seeking.
