Is anybody else experiencing lag?
Is anybody else experiencing lag?
I've been getting a lot of lag on the site and want to know if it's something anybody else is experiencing lag as well
Definitely an influx of users from reddit today. Honestly I'm impressed it's holding up as well as it is atm. It's a bit slower than usual, taking 3-5 seconds to load posts, but everything is still working 👍
yes; reddit hug of death. we're basically as optimized as can be so it's just riding out the storm at this point. we've been proud of uptime so far and the lack of errors. posts are still going through, you might just need to give them a bit and refresh
We're thankful for your not easy job!
I see there's a new Lemmy version out, but I guess you understandably don't want to take the site offline to install + test it, even though the db optimisations will be very handy. Or am I just being impatient? 😉
edit: the new release was only six hours ago, I'm definitely just being impatient
Y'all are doing a great job! If you decide to do a "health report" of the servers after things quiet a bit I think it would be an interesting discussion and good way for the community to think about any steps that should be addressed before July 1st, especially with better information based on the usage that's occurring.
There is a huge influx of reddit refugees who are not using the platform. This new userbase is taxing on the current infrastructure
I think with Reddit being down today all those new beehaw users are actually using the instance today
Oh, good. Not just me. Even got a 502 earlier.
I wonder, will there ever be a user cap in order to keep things sustainable?
Probably. I hope that people start spreading to other instances cause, as nice as it is to have so many new people, it becomes a bit bloated. And besides, everybody using just one server kinda takes the jpy out of the fediverse
Cough, mastodon.social and Lemmy.ml, cough
