I'm getting 502 error all the time on my lemmy.ml account (lemmygrad account works since i'm posting from it).

Anything about the lemmy.ml instance and its moderation.
For discussion about the Lemmy software project, go to !lemmy@lemmy.ml.
Cool. Which provider, if you want to share?
Ovh
You feel safe that they won't take a dim look on piracy then?
No they dont seem to care at all.
very interesting. Thanks for letting me know.
Everyone liked that.
The server has become more responsive definitely. I thought my internet routing was so shitty that it took so long to load the site. Nice!
This new machine is speedy! Getting pretty much instant loading times. Thank you to the donators, I will be joining you soon!

Is that why I kept getting this error?

hi! I would be interested in understaning more the setup of the lemmy.ml instance. Do you use a cloud provider, a SaaS platform or a traditional hosting ? What are the costs that are incurred? Cheers!
I'm still amazed at how light-weight lemmy is.
Rust magic
I just want to say, you all are doing a great job. Maybe I don’t fully understand it yet, but I have created some communities on the lemmy.ml instance and I don’t really want to move away. Is there anything I can or should do? I think that I’m currently locked in here.
I'm still having trouble that any comments I make on other instances through lemmy.ml are not seen on those instances, only when viewed through lemmy.ml
new users should still prefer to signup on other instances.
Add an instance migration feature, and ~~throw out~~ kindly suggest it to some users when the server gets overloaded... (/jk... or not)
Congrats on the smooth migration!
same its been 6 hours. seems like using a vpn to connect works.
it seems this new server is not configured to work with iCloud's Private Relay service as the last one was
how to configure servers to work with private relay: https://developer.apple.com/support/prepare-your-network-for-icloud-private-relay/
Me and others are getting that issue without that. Seems to be related to its IPV6 configuration or AAAA record since disabling IPV6 seems to make lemmy.ml work
how interesting...
I was getting 502 Bad Gateway. When I pinged Lemmy.ml I got an IPV6 address. It disabled IPV6 on my local computer and now when I ping I get a IPV4 IP address it works now.
I am wondering if DNS is screwed up on the IPV6 network for Lemmy.ml.
Note. This could totally be something on my end, I really haven't done much with IPV6 but it did solve the 502 Error so I might do the same for you.
Edit. I had a few people say turning off IPV6 on their end fixes the 502 Bad Gateway, so it looks like it has something to do with IPV6.
I'm also unable to connect with IPV6 enabled getting the 502 error, but able to connect with it disabled
Thanks for mentioning the IPv6, I've been banging my head all day trying to figure out why I kept getting the 502 yet no one was complaining anywhere and isitdown was showing the server as Up.
I forces my DNS to resolve only IPv4 for lemmy.ml and now I can use it.
My suspicion is that nginx is misconfigured and not listening via IPv6. Or maybe the AAAA record is pointing to the wrong IPv6 address.
@nutomic@lemmy.ml Thanks for upgrading the server!
I really do appreciate everything you're doing for us all. Thank you.
I haven't dug into the bowels of lemmy, but is there anything to be gained by scaling horizontally?
Please know that your work is genuinely appreciated in fascilitating the migration from Reddit to Lemmy. Your efforts will hopefully ensure a bright future for communities on this platform. Kudos @nutomic@lemmy.ml !
Thank you :)
This server now: I am speed
Thank you!!
I can feel the difference already. Really enjoying it here and while I wouldn’t let some technical difficulties stop me, I think it will help grow the community. Thank you!
neat, separate hosts for lemmy.ml and lemmygrad.ml :D

Gotta say it's been a smoother experience using it in the last couple hours. Thanks!
Have we explored the possibility of "porting" the larger communities to other instances? It seems that many of us simply wish to subscribe to the largest (insert type of community here) and can do so from various home instances. Might lower demand on this specific instance at the very least.
Thanks for your hard work, I really can tell the difference. Now lemmy.ml is much more responsive than before
Is it possible to horizontally scale these instances instead of just upping the machine hardware? What are the main performance bottlenecks typically?
Thanks! Donated 5$ - I encourage others to do the same.
