The "official" Lemmy instance lemmy.ml is currently experiencing downtime.

It seems like the "official" Lemmy instance, lemmy.ml, is currently experiencing some technical difficulties. It's been going up and down all morning and it isn't federating new posts.

Seems like they were right when the warned users to signup on other instances, that's why is important to remind people that you invite or you know are thinking to signup to do so on another instance.

While kbin.social has been the primary choice so far, there are other reliable options out there too. One of this instances is fedia.io, Additionally, you can explore more options on the instance listing at kbin.pub.

By spreading out the load among many instances, we can ensure that we don't face disruptions like the one we're experiencing right now.

I'd also like to know your opinions about this.

Xariphon,

Isn't the "official" Lemmy the one that's run by an authoritarian nutjob?

Here's the personal website of one of the Lemmy authors. The devs also run Lemmygrad, which is an instance dedicated to Marxist subs. The devs have Fidel Castro and Che Guevara as their profile pictures. They're pretty open about this stuff.

spark431,

Pretty sure they are just a little bit left leaning, not that big a deal if you disagree with their personal politics.

It depends where the content I write is physically located. I want my content to be moderated by the instance I joined. I refuse to follow the moderation rules of this and that instance, and that one too, and that one too.
