At the time of writing, Lemmyworld has the second highest number of active users (compared to all lemmy instances)

https://lemmy.fediverse.observer/list

Also at the time of writing, Lemmyworld has >99% uptime.

By comparison, other lemmy instances with as many users as Lemmyworld keep going down.

What optimizations has Lemmyworld made to their hosting configuration that has made it more resilient than other instances' hosting configurations?

Best would be to have thousands of servers. I wouldn't make them subdomains of lemmy.world, but people could create separate instances for large communities, for example. https://lemmy-selfhosted.com Scaling: if the Lemmy software gets tuned a bit better, I think the current server could host at least a million users. But let's hope for more servers first...
