So let me break down how things are going on the internet today:

- Twitter: Rate-limited
- Reddit: Third-party apps dead
- Pornhub: Effectively just got banned in my state because of a bad law
- Bluesky: Slow as molasses because everyone’s on a single server
- Twitch: Hear they’re having problems, too
- YouTube: Working OK but sudden questions about them, too
- Mastodon: Running perfectly

We can make this work.

@ernie in fairness, at some point one's Mastodon instance will have problems. I don't want to present Mastodon as a perfect utopia that never fails, giving users a false sense of what it can or can't do.

Biggest instances that get most of mass migration will have problems, like always when these happen. Though this time I've only heard about lag, so maybe they were somewhat prepared.
