Lemmy.world needs to move to an HA setup. Based on what I saw the server admin mentioning in his upgrade posts for this latest build I think he's just running a really big instance in Amazon and then using docker containers for every piece of Lemmy which is making the site very slow. To properly spread the load he needs to create individual servers for the individual pieces of Lemmy. Unfortunately if you're not a sysadmin this type of setup can be tricky and kind of hard to get going.

Have you tried to reach out dev and tell him to do so?

I self host some shit, but really can't wrap my head about what you just said lol.

Ruud is one of the more qualified system administrators in this space technically speaking. He and a few other knowledgeable instance admins are having to invent solutions as they go because the biggest server was like 1/100 of the size of lemmy.world a month ago and Lemmy has not been optimized for this yet.

Is it about the cost? I'd donate, but I have no idea how.

Edit: Found it. It's opencollective.com/mastodonworld (the main admin, Ruud, also runs a Mastodon instance).
