UPDATE:
We’ve made some changes to the configuration and our scaling, we hope that this improves general response times. 🤞
We are monitoring the situation currently.

Featuring Lemmy World and The Internet
Thank you for this, and your continued work on the servers.
all things considered, I am very impressed by how each instance had held up given the ~2000% increase in users over the last few weeks… yeah some apps were a little slow or unusable for bits and pieces, but issues seem pretty non-existent from what I’ve seen personally… seems I made the correct decision to try out lemmy and I’m excited to see where it all goes from here :]
Cool!
My browser doesn’t like the status page link:
You can click on Ignore.
I’m aware, but I’m sure there are many that’ll be scared off.
Nice.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s): https://piped.video/watch?v=zYt0WbDjJ4E
Piped is a privacy-respecting open-source alternative frontend to YouTube.
I’m open-source, check me out at GitHub.
I’m impressed at how well this server has been holding up under intense hammering, you’re all doing a fantastic job!
The Hammering, indeed.
yooooooooooooo thank you!
Thank you for this ))
BTW you can have it on the side bar instead of wasting a sticky post slot
Looks like y’all have had your hands full. Thank you very much.
To my understanding Datadog is not FOSS. Would you guys consider using a FOSS alternative for motoring the status of lemmy.world such as Uptime Kuma? That way your who stack is closer to being FOSS.
We may consider any solution later when we are able to properly scale LW. I’m all for FOSS (like elastic or prometheus) but we are limited by what we can achieve in a day + working job.
