Is Lemmy.world under too great a burden? (lemmy.world)

Is the server facing too much of a load with the influx of new users? Lemmy.world has been down a few times in the last few days, but the admins have usually been prompt to respond to issues. Is it the instance that is the bottleneck? Or are there some lingering effects from the hack a bit back?

Thanks

That said, we don't all need to crowd onto one instance and shouldn't do so. If you're advising new users, I'd point them toward an instance with 100-1000 users. With your month-old active account... this is your home though and if you can be patient I think they'll start to get ahead of the growth as long as people don't keep dog-piling here exclusively.
