lakeladyI worry that we soon may see many new instances shutting down because they've quickly become unmanageable. Where is the redundancy in the fediverse? What protections are there for admins experiencing insane growth? What protections are there for users who have an instance disappear? I love the possibilities of this place but it feels very fragile right now. #Fediverse #SystemWeakness #FragileNetworks #Redundancy #FediverseQuestions

Attached: 1 image I'll be honest here, as a humble instance admin receiving all kinds of DMs and emails... The abuse, excessive reports... folks our instance grew from 60 users to 22000 in the span of two weeks. I didn't expect to suddenly commit 6-8 hours of my day to this. Knowing I have other commitments like a day job and other things. I'm burning the candle on both ends here. Look at this toot timestamp. Please save space for some patience. Y'all clearly don't remember this image: #mastoadmin #mstdnca
