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.
its not so much about how many registered users as it is about how many online users. The online user count is what adds fuel to the fire!
Oh wow so it's really the transactions per minute, not so much the baseline set of data?
Yeah, basically the problem is number of calls (requests) per minute. If it's not too many, everything works fine, if it overloads, you get 500 errors 🤷.
Including calls to federated communities, yes?
I'm not sure about that, but most probably yes, since if you post on federated communities, your username pops up as someone@notonthisserver.com and the post is saved on your instance (from what I know).
