Damn that's cool, I didn't know they had a status page!
EDIT: just noticed it got pinned 13 hours ago on this community.
Yeah, lemmy feels pretty unstable today:
-
Got the
rate_limit_error
earlier -
502 page for a couple of minutes
-
The error OP describes
-
Commenting on other instances triggers an infinite loading and no comment being posted
Update: it now happens 50% of the time, and each time it gets systematically resolved by refreshing the browser.
