Similar to Mastodon's spikes last year, it seems. Anyways, there is data to think about. Source

Lemmy.world has been down a lot, I've been trying to use it but half the times I've logged on it's been down. So that might be part of it?
Having Sync default to Lemmy.world seems like a huge mistake to me. Poor Ruud
Between lemmy.world and sync having issues I almost went on reddit. Then I remembered this is the fediverse, jerboa and lemm.ee exist and I'm back and more active than ever.
I think it's mostly lemmy.world issue, since (for some reason) is Sync's default, instead of suggesting smaller instances.
Don't you have an account on another instance? Lemmy.world was down a bit that one time. Lemmy.ca was down once briefly for me due to site maintenance.
Is there a way to export and import subscriptions between accounts?
What are the best instances to have an account? I'm new to lemmy and just have lemmy world.
I made a second account on lemm.ee - it's big so has all the connections you could need and has amazing uptime.
I have a second account on lemdro.id. It's smaller and mostly android focused but its my main account most days. If world is having issues I don't even think about it I just switch over 😂
Think it depends on things like your interests and at this point in time the uptime associated with said instance.
Lemmy.ml but same problems there. I haven't had time/energy to make another one and subscribe to everything again.
For real.
I'm not sure why they're not using elastic servers. Maybe because of the cost. Idk how Lemmy server dudes get their money, but it can be expensive running a server with 5-7 million visitors per month.
