Based on my weeks of code (and operating instance) study on lemmy_server, I strongly suspect that peer servers upgrading to 0.18 is causing a swarm of federation activity that lemmy.ml is getting as peers go down and back up.

The admin of Beehaw told me to post it on Lemmy.ml despite the message being that the server was down.
I quickly found out beehaw was not a good instance for me. This is some great reaffirmation that switching instances was the right call.
I think this is the nice part of lemmy though, many instances exist (or can create your own), and there are plenty with level headed communities/mods/admins, it just takes a bit to find what you’re looking for.
Honestly am preferring defederation from beehaw. Missing some good links (for now), sure, but those echo chamber comment sections, no thanks.
