I’m aware that some of you have been getting some errors loading this instance. This was a configuration that I needed to be adjusted which has since been.
Do be patient if we run into other issues, I’ll be continuously working in the back-end with others to better your overall experience.
Still a lot of capacity available!
edit: For those that are interested in the configuring changes. I was using the default lemmy configuration for the nginx worker_connections value. This value needed to be raised.
Shout out to @ruud@lemmy.world over at lemmy.world for helping me out.
Users should spread out across instances - that is the entire point of being distributed and federated.
Absolutely. At the same time, when you have a bunch of users migrating from a centralized platform who don’t quite get the fediverse stuff yet, they’re likely going to go to well-populated instances.
Hopefully as things progress messaging around this point will penetrate with new folks (like me!)
