You're absolutely welcome to do that as it is your decision and you have many choices. We hope to build a community of folks that would like to help the fediverse grow and support smaller instances. Similar growing pains were seen during the twitter exodous last September.

It is temporary as lemmy.world was cascading duplicates at us and the only way to keep the site up reliably was to temporarily drop them. We're in the process of adding more hardware to increase RAM, CPU cores and disk space. Once that new hardware is in place we can try turning on the firehose. Until then, please patient.

Migrating to newer hardware with more memory and cpus pict-rs are being replicated, so you may see some images missing. Please be patient. If you have login/logout issues be sure to completely dump your browser cache to resolve that.

Currently UI: 0.18.1-rc.7 BE: 0.18.1-rc.4 pict-rs is now running on a separate machine.

We are working on improving load balancing today and distributing the instance across multiple servers. As a result, you may see some timeouts, thank you for your patience.

Welcome to Lemmy v0.18.1-rc.4 This may have resolved the memory leak that we were experiencing which caused the occasional site timeouts.

[–] SDF 20 points 2 years ago

Thanks to the work of DJ Sures and others they're actually able to do something now.

caturday is only a day away.

 

From what we learned last September with the spike in Mastodon usage, we're getting a head of things. We're setting up multiple Lemmy servers to help balance load on front end requests just as we do with Mastodon. So far, Lemmy's performance has been excellent with minimal resource usage, but distributing the load for pict-rs and front end requests should help us if we do indeed (and hopefully so) get a rush of new folks that want to leave reddit and grow the Fediverse.
