Sorry about that. Our hosting provider went down.

At the moment our architecture looks roughly like this:

• Lemmy backed on a OneProvider VPS
• everything else hosted at Fly.io (we heavily rely on the private networking that fly.io provides, they rock!)

In the future, I'm planning on moving Lemmy backend and pictrs to live in my basement. I have a 1 gig symmetric connection with a backup failover, so I honestly think it'll be more reliable than these cheap hosting providers and it will be cheaper.

Just want to give a quick update on what's happened and how we'll fix it going forward!

Hi! I know lemdro.id has been a bit slower than usual lately. I'm working to move us to totally dedicated hardware to mitigate this.

Expect early January, although I will make efforts to speed us up on our existing hosting provider.

how do i know which communities lemdroid does and doesn't fedearate with?

Is there an issue with picture upload? I couldn't make a picture post last week, and tonight it's not working again. I only get a generic "failed to upload" error. Texts posts are working fine.
