Frequent short downtimes lately? (reddthat.com)

I've been noticing reddthat going down for a short time (a few minutes or so) more than before - is everything okay?

https://lestat.org/status/lemmy shows our uptime at 88.82% right now - not horrible, but not great either. We of course stunt need to be up 99.9999% of the time, but still.

Is there anything we can help with besides donating? I like it here, so I want to make sure this place stays up for a long time 👍

Wait they removed websocket support?!?! Why?

How were things more synchronous with websockets?

[–] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago

I think the websocket support was "clunky", and it resulted in weird things happening.

Because all the clients were on a websocket everything was sent immediately to the clients from the server, and you didn't need to "wait" for the long running queries.

But that only really affects admin/mods. The current system is a lot better! And since 0.18.3 the db optimisation has helped! Removing a user and all their content didn't take as long now and the changes I made for extra horizontal scaling really helped.
