Since the 11th @ 9am UTC, LW has seen a 2 fold increase of activities. If my insider knowledge is right (and math) it’s 7req/s average up from 3req/s.

Lucky for both of us we are not subbed to every community on LW but I think we are subbed just enough to be affected.

Relevant: https://reddthat.com/comment/8316861 tl;dr. The current centralisation results in a lemmy-verse theoretical maximum for of 1 activity per 0.3 seconds, or 200 activities per minute. As total transfer of packets is just under 0.3 seconds between EU -> AU and back.

Edit: can’t math when sleepy

No worries! I hope the community comes back around!

Yeah funding is good. Completely community funded :) Ours is on open collective if you want to see it 😉 (we are completely transparent)

We (reddthat) would welcome your community. 😉
