Incredible to think about that we got it right the first time (with email) and still had to spend the last 20 years complaining about centralized social networks.

    It rather abruptly stops at a few thousand users and after that it becomes much harder and more expensive to scale further.

    As a fellow Lemmy admin of a smaller instance, do you have any advice? Any resources that might be worth checking out?

      Well, like I wrote below, it is basically about scaling Lemmy across multiple servers, with all the complexity that entails. I am probably not the best person to given advise on that though.

      If our smaller instance ever gets to a size that is not feasible to run on a single server anymore, we will likely close registrations.
