Earlier today, I identified the root cause of an issue causing annoying 502 errors intermittently. If you’ve ever had an action infinitely load until you refreshed the page, that is this issue. I deployed a fix, and am slowly scaling it down to stress test it. If you encounter an infinite loading occurrence or an HTTP 502 error please let me know!
UPDATE: Stress testing complete. Theoretically we should be equipped to handle another 5k users without any intervention from me
That’s really weird doesn’t the server automatically re-fetch the images and thumbnails from the other instances when the cached ones are gone?
you’d think so, right? Lemmy has a lot of quirks
Yeah and taking a quick look at the GitHub repository there is a lot of space for improvement
