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.

    If this instance continues growing this way I’ll need to look into scaling horizontally instead of vertically

    Could you elaborate what this means?

      Better to have more servers as opposed to one ultra powerful server because the ultra powerful server tends to be more expensive than an equivalent strength collection of weaker servers. Also, you pay for all the power even during times you don’t need it whereas you can take down or add more weak servers as necessary.
