yes; reddit hug of death. we're basically as optimized as can be so it's just riding out the storm at this point. we've been proud of uptime so far and the lack of errors. posts are still going through, you might just need to give them a bit and refresh

I figured as much, lol. You've all done an amazing job at keeping the servers going despite all the new traffic! The lag isn't too big a problem, I'm just happy it's not a problem on my end

We're thankful for your not easy job!

Y'all are doing a great job! If you decide to do a "health report" of the servers after things quiet a bit I think it would be an interesting discussion and good way for the community to think about any steps that should be addressed before July 1st, especially with better information based on the usage that's occurring.

after things quiet a bit

I highly doubt things will quiet anytime soon

Hah I was thinking relative to the spike that is the blackouts and the frontpage crashing but I can see your perspective on this. Fwiw I am hoping that Beehaw can continue to build itself into a nice space for even more folks who'd like to join us all and contribute.

I see there's a new Lemmy version out, but I guess you understandably don't want to take the site offline to install + test it, even though the db optimisations will be very handy. Or am I just being impatient? 😉

edit: the new release was only six hours ago, I'm definitely just being impatient
