Are the registry procedures causing the problem? Since most of my communities are on lemmy.ml, wouldn’t I still be using lemmy.lm’s bandwidth? Or is it more crucial to ensure that the communities are distributed more evenly across different instances?
Just my thoughts from a random user
-
Have communities work similar to how RAID works with drives. It spans across multiple trusted instances, with data mirrored or striped to each. If one goes down, a new instance could become trusted and have the data rebuild on that instance. This would create redundancy and prevent one instance from becoming the main or default.
-
Allow similar with user accounts or allow instance migration.

I think we want communities to spread out more than users.
Unfortunately if the users are there then they create the communities. So really people just need to spread out.
Migrating means losing a few things you’ve made or commented on. We’re so young that shouldn’t be such a big deal yet though.
This l load balancing will have to be automated sooner or later (sooner hopefully) because it’s gonna be problematic…
Did you intend to duplicate your post so many times or is it just the server messing things up?
Server and app weirdness. I deleted the duplicates. But I guess they have to prepare out to the other servers.
That’s a good idea! but which instances would be appropriate?
Literally any. Browse through the instance list and find one that matches whatever criteria you think is important to you.
Im French Canadian and when I saw that sh.itjust.works was a French Canadian instance I figured why not?
It’s not super important stove you can see everything in the network from all instances unless it has specific rules against something.

Yeah, the faster Lemmy will figure out an account migration the better, i applied for Lemmy.ml account before I’ve noticed the overload post, now I’m stuck with an intense that’s a bit more laggy than I like
