Everything is struggling due to the Reddit influx. The closer you are to the top of lists like awesome-lemmy-instances the more you’re getting crushed right now. Also means already strugglling instances are going to struggle even more.
Think of instances as “continents” where communities (think of them as “countries”) and users set up their base. For example, you’re now in the lemmy.world instance. That means you are a resident of the lemmy.world instance.
You can “travel” to other instances and participate in the communities they have there too and vice versa.
