The reddit 3rd party apps are all shutting down and many of them seem to be directing users in this direction so there's probably going to be a big crunch as everyone tries to figure out how tf this site works.

'Slammed' makes it sound so violent. Let's instead say that Lemmy is being kissed by sweaty multitudes, many with tongues, and not always on the mouth.

Might have spoken too soon, even the website itself is pooping it's dacks. We might have just gotten the Reddit hug of death.

Yeah, I tried using wefwef and everything was so slow to respond. I thought it was an issue on my end but I'm assuming instances were not ready for this new influx of people. My account on a different instance works with no problem and I set up my own wefwef instance to not get rate limited like the official one does.

Experiencing the same thing. I've even tried to sign up to a couple of instances I found and never got confirmation emails either :(

Tons of errors for me

Yeah me too.

Yeah me too. Tons of errors can’t see posts.

My comments and posts weren't working as well. Not sure if this one will even post

Site is inaccessible for me for about a few minutes, at one hour intervals if I had to guess. I'm way off, and/or exaggerating a little bit.
