Rant: My sourdough starter died after I left it in the fridge for 3 weeks
Last month I got busy with work and forgot to feed my starter, and when I checked it yesterday it had pink mold on top. Has anyone else had a starter go bad that fast or did I just mess up the ratios from the start?

Did you try feeding it some flour and water to see if it would bounce back, or did you just toss it? I once left mine on the counter for two weeks and it grew this fuzzy blue fur that looked like a tiny alien. I was so heartbroken I almost named it before I realized it was dead. Now I keep a backup in the freezer just in case I ghost my starter again.
