I have had issues with a couple lemmy instances today. I think there is both a software upgrade and a massive influx of users going on.
Hardware upgrades too
I'm having issues finding particular communities from SDF.
For instance, I'm trying to get subbed to !fgc@lemmy.world from SDF, but SDF is unable to find it at all. I'm part of other lemmy.world communities, so it seems strange to me that it can't find !fgc.
Anyone else know why this might be happening?
Currently lemmy.world is temporarily blocked while they do some hardware upgrades to be able to handle all the extra load coming from over there.
I’ll just chime in and say that I’ve been having issues as well for the last 12 or so hours. Sometimes the mobile site works, sometimes it doesn’t and jumping between the desktop and Jerboa app sometimes gets me connected but it has been very inconsistent and unreliable on all platforms during this time frame.
Oddly I can only load lemmy.sdf.org from mobile data. If I'm on wifi it doesn't work. If I use a VPN on my wifi it also doesn't work.
Ah, someone else is experiencing the same thing.
It's working again for me today. No idea what may have changed
Influx of users. Give it time. Also, donate to your instance. These don't run for free.
I had trouble logging into lemmy.sdf.org from the Android client all day. Worked just now though 🤷♂️.
The API's working just fine. Here's what I get when I query it for this post:
