Are there any Discord servers or somewhere in the Matrix to chat about hosting a Lemmy instance? I’ve got Lemmy running, but I think there are several of us in the same boat struggling with federation performance issues and it might be good to have some place to chat real time.

    Ok- sorry- I 100% missed that.

    I am onboard with you now.

    Hopefully the upcoming 0.18 release I keep hearing about helps compensate for a few of these issues…

        Don’t know if they changed it or not-

        But, I am busy making a few kubernetes manifests for deploying lemmy- and I am noticing a ton of extra debugging / logging that doesn’t need to be there for production use.

        Seriously doubt it’s going to fix the issue- but, reducing some of the debugging enabled by default, wouldn’t hurt.

          100% with you. A lot of the current deployment are very development centric… Let’s pretend the default docker-compose.yml isn’t opening up the postgres DB to the internet with a generic password…

          The pace the entire system must mature to enable the platform to handle the hopeful upcoming growth is… interesting, to say the least…

            Well, if I can knock out a decent helm chart for these manifests, it might actually help a bit-

            Most of the components can scale quite easily on k8s. The only piece I am unsure of currently, is lemmy itself.

            The lemmy-ui scales. Appears mostly stateless. pictrs scales. postgres scales.
