Thanks u/ruud!

How are you managing all of this in addition to having a life outside of Lemmy? This kind of went from 0-60 in a blink.

Thanks for the transparency and keep up the good work!

Y’all doing amazing things keeping us going 🔥

This has been such a refreshing change from reddit! I'm willing to deal with occasional hiccups, and I know it will only get better with time. Keep it up!

Thanks for keeping us apprised. Hopefully you will find the resource leak.

What sort of container orchestration and database tools are you using? Maybe you need some sys admin help?

I expect it is federation outbound activity growing in memory usage, it's all held in RAM for every post/comment/like going out to subscribed servers. !lemmyperformance@lemmy.ml is a community for the focus on scaling Lemmy.

I totally appreciate all of your efforts! Thank you for being a pioneer.

around 25GB RAM usage. (That is, if we restart Lemmy every 30 minutes. Else memory will go to 100%)

25 GB of RAM????? Looks like your instance is the edge case with Lemmy's scalability, when there's really big amount of active users. Looks like some problems won't fade with really high-grade hardware. But I have to appreciate, that's one gargantuan job!

Thanks for all the work you, and all the others do to welcome so many new users, and thank you for keeping us posted on your efforts to smooth things over.

From what I see the general sentiment is very positive and understanding, and it feels special to be part of a community that's more upbeat than what you see in most online places.

Thank you for everything you do. With any luck, you'll get all the support you need, and have it running smooth as silk.

Yall are navigating waters that you probably have little professional experience with. Keep at it and don't get discouraged.

Amazing work team. I am already seeing improvements. Hope you are not killing yourselves though, I'm sure everyone realises how difficult it is and that it will take time to fix. We're here for the long haul! Thanks again

Thanks for making this possible in the first place 🤘

Thank you to you and everyone behind the scenes working hard to make Lemmy a great place. I am turkey enjoying the experience even with the bugs. Brings back a ton of nostalgia with modern mixed in.

Its nice to have a place where the admins and developers aren't trying to scheme and manipulate the community to get a big payout. Thanks for all that you guys do. Curating this community is no doubt selfless hard work but we need a place like this free from the influence or potential take over by bad actors and malignant narcissists.

I can come whine in the discord if that'll help.

Thanks for putting in all the hard work. Especially on a holiday. We appreciate you guys!

Are there any plans to make user up and down votes not viewable publicly? I know for a lot of new adopters this can be a deal breaker.

It’s a ton better this afternoon! Thank you!!

Appreciate the update, best of luck.

Do you need any spare server hardware? @ruud@lemmy.world I would be happy to donate some!

Thanks! Love updates. I moved to lemm.ee for now, I'll come back to your world when you got room for my fat arse.

Sometimes when I post a comment (without any image) it takes forever to post and sometimes it keeps spinning and I need to cancel and post again. My internet connection is fine (100 Mbps) and it works flawlessly on other websites. Is it happening due to overloading on the lemmy server?
