UPDATE:
We’ve made some changes to the configuration and our scaling, we hope that this improves general response times. 🤞
We are monitoring the situation currently.

Original Post: We are aware that many users have been experiencing slowness due to the increase in new users and our recent instance upgrade. Rest assured we are actively working on resolving these issues. In the meantime, you can check the status of Lemmy.world using the following link.

We appreciate your patience and understanding as we continue to improve and address performance concerns. ☺️
To my understanding Datadog is not FOSS. Would you guys consider using a FOSS alternative for motoring the status of lemmy.world such as Uptime Kuma? That way your who stack is closer to being FOSS.

We may consider any solution later when we are able to properly scale LW. I’m all for FOSS (like elastic or prometheus) but we are limited by what we can achieve in a day + working job.
