Things have been incredibly unstable there. Until things stabilise, they should force the traffic elsewhere.
You are welcome to go to another instance to reduce lemmy.world load.
I don’t think you understand how the fediverse works of you think that solves the problem - lemmy.world being unstable effects its ability to federate properly with other instances
Badly managed popular instances unfortunately affects the whole fediverse
I agree. Wants the point of a decentralised platform if most of it’s users are on a single instance.
Plus it’s not a good look from a new users perspective if the platform appears down every few hours.
As I understand it, Lemmy.world’s maintainer wants to own the biggest Lemmy server ever, just like they own one of the biggest Mastodon servers. It’s a feature, not a bug.
