It’s not even a question (outside of clickbait bs by news agencies)

lemmy.world is probably overloaded.

On my instance, everything from them floods through all at once, filling my first couple of pages with hours or even days worth of stuff, then I’ll get nothing from them for a while again.

I mean, maybe it’s because I’m not overly paranoid or live in the US, but this doesn’t seem like a big deal at all.

As for the “drama” of them telling someone they can unfollow, it’s true. It’s again, not a big deal.

This screams people trying to make a mountain out of a molehill.

My favorite part is when it finally becomes somewhat less overloaded, and my instance gets flooded with a bunch of posts from there filling the entirety of my front page, and the second page…

Thank you I’ll look into it.

That’s great news! Hopefully it releases soonish.

I’m the only one here.

Not only annoyingly slow, but I tend to get a massive influx of posts from one community all at once. It fills my entire page with that single community. It’s been my biggest annoyance so far.

I’m using a cloudflare tunnel for it. I also have crowdsec installed, only allow ssh keys and only from my IP (I have a static from my ISP), and no ports open other than the ones needed.

I used the official docker image: https://hub.docker.com/r/matrixdotorg/synapse/

My compose file looks like this: https://pastebin.com/3JYzAPr2

Pretty sure I just followed the instructions there.

I host my own matrix instance for my wife, a few friends and I. It has worked great for us. They can either use a web app, or an app on their phone.

Is there a bit more context to this? This just shows a bunch of image file names.

That’s a whole lot of “Woah is me, I’m so hard done by, praise me for everything I do and most importantly pay me scrubs.”

Just a heads up, things like Jellyfin are against their TOS if you aren’t paying for streaming with them.

Lemmy, Matrix, Teddit, Gitea, Opengist, RSSBridge, Freshrss are all things I have on my vps’

Please use a proper image host. When your uploads get federated, if they are uploaded directly to lemmy, the images get federated as well. While you may have a large server, a lot of people don’t.

It even says on the lemmy docs to use a third party image service that’s built to host images:

Note that this functionality is not meant to share large images or videos, because that would require too many server resources. Instead, upload them on another platform like PeerTube or Pixelfed, and share the link on Lemmy.

Someone made a post the other day (since deleted) asking why their instance was slow after they uploaded NINETY high res images in one post. Please don’t be that person.

I’ve been looking for a way to cache images elsewhere instead of on my server as they are federated here, as my instance is tiny. I’m hoping I can find a way that’s not a bucket someplace as I don’t trust myself to not mess one of those up and end up with a massive bill.
