VoltRadio Back Online After Streak of Outages

After two multiple weeks-long outages, the online radio station VoltRadio is back online.

The Netherlands-based non-profit Internal Group Foundation's online radio station VoltRadio was recently down for multiple weeks at a time twice now.

VoltRadio management cited a "major server issue" as the reason for their extended downtime in an announcement made public within their Discord community.

After a few weeks of proper functioning, their station unfortunately experienced yet another outage, with a representative from VoltRadio announcing that they "have a incident within the leadership team." The representative also announced publicly that they could—at the time—not "access the server to repair it," leading to the community being "stuck waiting for 2 fighting leadership members to fix whatever is happening at the moment." As has been made apparent thus far, this outage was caused by leadership issues—and seemingly severe ones at that.

Well, that's what we thought too! However, it seems like the team was having some severe issues on the backend side and within the leadership team. The owner of VoltRadio—the Discord user tmrxdev—implied in a later announcement that their outage was caused to some extent by their hosting provider, the Germany-based company Datalix, with the owner stating that the community should "blame datalix ig."

Earlier today, VoltRadio announced that they were resuming their station's server and that all services—including their phone number—would be back soon.

At the time of writing, VoltRadio's listener count is quite high at about 15 unique listeners, according to their internal API's data.

⚠️
It is important to note that VoltRadio has been DDoSed multiple times before, which leads us to believe they do not have DDoS protection tools. This means that their listener count could be inflated from another DDoS attack if they have not improved their protective measures.
