Its not code that seems to have difficulty scaling, it seems to be user curation and user trust that is being difficult to scale.
The lemmy.ml post that asks people to go elsewhere is still stickied and the first thing it mentions is that they have upgraded the server. So that does suggest that compute scaling is an issue.
It could also be an issue with disk i/o, data port throughput, database performance...
I mean, with all the server issues we've seen with the influx of users, it does seem like the code is difficult to scale
