Welcome to The Lemmy Club!

Instance Rules:

  1. Don't be a dick.
  2. Racism/slurs/etc use will not be tolerated.
  3. No spamming.
  4. Don't harass other users (See rule 1)
  5. NSFW content must be marked correctly.
  6. All content must comply with US law
  7. Loli/etc. will not be tolerated. Suggestive or sexual art must be reasonably recognizable as adult subjects.
  8. These rules apply to all content and users that appear on The Lemmy Club. Moderation is on an as noticed/as reported basis. If you see rule breaking content, I likely have just not seen it yet. Please report it.
  9. Instances/users/communities that tolerate, repeatedly fail to enforce, or allow content that breaks any of these rules may be banned from The Lemmy Club.
  10. The site admin team (well, just @bdonvr really as of now) has final say in interpretations of all rules.

How much difference does a CDN make to a fediverse instance? - PieFed (join.piefed.social)

For a very small instance with only a couple of concurrent users a CDN might not make much difference. But if you take a look at your web server logs you’ll quickly notice that every post / like / vote triggers a storm of requests from other instances to yours, looking up lots of different things. It’s easy to imagine how quickly this would overwhelm an instance once it gets even a little busy.

One of the first web performance tools people reach for is to use a CDN, like Cloudflare. But how much difference will it make? In this video I show you my web server logs before and after and compare them.
