  • I would guess having not seen any logs or anything that the server might need more resources or is hitting some limit that hasn’t come up before. Like max open files or some sort of ram limit. I haven’t looked into running a lemmy instance yet but usually you can mess with the config and squeeze a little more life out of stuff. But it could be that the server itself needs to be more powerful.

    I’ve had a lot of problems getting posts to load that are on other large instances. The whole ecosystem is probably just slammed right now. Reddit dying made people go “well whats a thing like reddit I could use instead” and we’re all just showing up load testing the small instances people set up for a small group of friends.






  • I didn’t like Twitter for that reason. Often I’d follow someone because I saw some posts they made about something I’m interested in. Then suddenly they’re flooding my feed with stuff I don’t care about and often being really annoying while they do it.

    I rarely find someone who I like all their posts. So it’s like do I just put up with the furry porn retweets because this person is a genius who occasionally posts about really interesting hacks?
