66 users isn't a ton, though we're on a super-cheap VPS right now. It isn't really clear how scalable lemmy's software actually is; so far basically the whole lemmyverse has been tiny. Given the way it federates, I'd imagine the demands are not linear.

We're seeing spikes of ~20% CPU. We might upgrade the VPS and consider capping the number of users.

Anyway, I'll bump up the VPS we're on for a bit given the whole Reddit drama. There will be a brief period of downtime while I do so.

[Update] Upgrade complete. 🤘
