Just made my first PR to LemmyNet/lemmy, so pretty good! Lemmy.world and lemmy.ml seem to be struggling quite bad right now, I'm getting 5-10 second response time. Lemmy.world is errorring out intermittently.

I migrated from .world to nearer instance on my region (.world is europe, I am in souteast asia). I am happy with it. 😁
I do worry that a smaller instance only hides the problem. When I post from here to lemmy.ml sometimes it just doesn’t propagate, which I guess is because lemmy.ml is overloaded. A small instance doesn’t help if the source communities you want are back on the overloaded large one.
Agreed. .ml is still strungling, .world is also struggling but .world is still better than .ml because it has better hardware. All we can do is pray that our post reach them and convince the admins to migrate their community to dedicated instance like startrek or programing ones.
This was one of the main reasons I chose a smaller instance myself, to avoid all of that
Same here, this instance isn't getting overwhelmed and it has a nice small but budding community that I'm glad to be part of.
I was stuck between joining sh.itjust.works, pawb.social and this when I was considering a Lemmy instance. Eventually picked this one simply for the domain name (and everyone seemed friendly enough). I think joining a small instance actually helped with the recent influxes.
