Anyone else getting some random errors and 500s on here recently?

Yeah, this is specifically on sh.itjust.works for those viewing this thread elsewhere, but I’m sure other instances are struggling too. I’m not even seeing 500s, just a generic Firefox “Cannot complete request” on mobile and connection resets on Jerboa.
Edit: ah, yep, here come the 500s mixed in there as well.
We are absolutely testing server capacity right now. And the reddit blackout is just starting. Gotta be prepared.
Edit: Apparently we are not testing server capacity just yet, there was a configuration that needed to be updated on the back end, as per the Dude.
The blackout is currently happening at least in 5000 of the 7000 subs, I assume that’s why the errors are happening now.
Wow that’s insane! 86% of subs are private rn according to their stats
Yeah, experiencing the same as well.
This is gonna get quickly out of hand… there should have been an announcement that you should NOT join the most popular instances and just scroll down the list to join an instance that is preferably at the very bottom of the list.
When I joined this one was one of the smaller ones lol. This instance has been alive for like 6 days.
Yeah, was, past tense 😂.
Loved the domain name, that’s why I joined 😂.
same, I’m always in places like this, my e-mails are all from cock.li. I just love giving someone something like “yeah hi, e-mail me the job offer to jaimie@national.shitposting.agency”. And together with being a bit annoyed at the inefficiency of other lemmy instances and how much they focused on which political party and ideology they should follow, this one was a breath of fresh air :)
PS. I still find it to be the best working instance out of all that I have tried. The big ones are slow, the small ones have wrong setups and are buggy, this one is just perfect 💯
God’s stamp of approval
