Don't worry, I appreciate the work our admins have put into the site
One of the beautiful things with the fediverse is that I've just created an alt account on another instance, so I can
1: Reduce the load on lemmy.world servers
2: use the alt account if lemmy.world is down
Idk, I feel too lazy to inform myself of what other instances are about and creating a whole new account for them
I'm commenting from lemmy.nz. If you have an account on another instance you can still access everything on lemmy.world
and with LASIM you can migrate all your subs over with a couple clicks.

I've been so hesitant about making another account, but this one seem very useful. Thanks for this one!
Read the two sentence long descriptions on join-lemmy.org/instances and use the same username and password if you're that lazy.
sweet
see I always expected it to be like a "well, first you gotta have a MariaDB or Postgress" then "you'll need to configure nginx" followed by security gobblygook , and if you want a UI you'll have to figure that out on your own
Oh I see the problem! There just isn't enough RGB!
Just download more RAM FFS! How hard can it be??
I see the issue. The ram isn't oriented correctly. And to overclock they should let the potato sprout.
The CPU is also set to Mini, they should turn it to Wambo.
Some stickers would probably help as well.
Better sick another RAM module in there for good measure.
Better seat them properly too - not all the pins of the current RAM are inserted into the potato. No wonder it isn't working!
We need to download more RAM
Gigabyte? Pshh, no wonder! Should've used Asrock.
It's probably running Windows Me
Rubbish. They have one hamster on a wheel, running so fast his feet are red hot.
I gave up with Lemmy World and made an account elsewhere.
You mean GLaDOS has been responsible for running lemmy.world? Goddammit, Chell, look at what your shenanigans did!
ikr it crashes basically every day
It's getting DDOSed every day.
More than daily
Finally someone says it. It's been crashing for like 2 days
They can't say it because their instance is down :)
Adding another stick of memory would really turn this thing into a beast! It’s never wise to use a single stick.
PS2 and VGA connector, tiny heatsink, only 1 USB slot… That's an antedeluvian machine, no wonder it can't take the load ^^
how are you holding up? because I'm a potato >~>

Oh good. My slow clap processing has made it into this thing. So we have that.
Growing pains. I remember when Reddit had this problem. That was 8 years ago
And again almost 13 years ago when the Digg and Slashdot migrations happened
Hey Lemmy admins, what can the users do to help?
I think the idea is to disperse to other instances. If lemmy.world has 70% of users then it makes a bigger target for attack.
If we are dispersed then, even if lemmy.world goes down it would only effect a small portion of your feed.
Either way, the more spread out our net of users is the stronger the fediverse will be. I am going to move instances myself, although my content will still be viewable on lemmy.world. such is the power of the fediverse
Always happy to see Linux on a potato!
smugly points out other servers exist
correct me if i'm wrong, but i think if the instance your account is on is down you can't interact with any other instances?
I think you may misunderstand. Let's say Lemmy.world goes down, you are still free to make a new account on any other Lemmy instance and still have the same username (hopefully). [email protected] simply becomes [email protected] or whatever instance you make a new account on. A lot of instances federate with most other instances so you will more or less get access to the same content. A good Lemmy client like Voyager/wefwef.app let's you hot swap between multiple accounts
Unfortunately there's no way to export/import sub's which I think should be a feature in the future. I'm not sure if you can access Lemmy.world content from another instance while it's down maybe someone else can chime in on that.
Here is a good instance list that shows number of users. Seeing it really helped me understand why Lemmy.world is down. It has 22k users. The next largest has 4k. Most others barely scrape hundreds.

We are guilty as aspecies of tending to choose the most popular option because it offers the most interaction. The enemy of federation is ourselves and cognitive bias. I am guilty as charged.
Here's a good list to find reddit sub replacements on fediverse too very helpful https://sub.rehab/
going on the site is flipping a coin for whether it'll be up or not
