I’m getting overrun with these even when the site is working fine. Sometimes will even have a post load, but as I’m reading it it’ll disappear and I’ll get a bunch of bad gateway popups at the bottom.
At the moment it seems to have cooled off after some minutes ago when it was happening constantly, but since it seemed (to my very untrained eye) to be unrelated to server maintenance I wanted to bring this up.
Edited to add - I had to uninstall and reinstall Connect, but now that has largely fixed the errors. I continually got error messages saying Lemmy.world was down for maintenance when it wasn’t, but since reinstalling it it’s been fine.
it concerns me as a whole, it’s been happening for 3 weeks now, I’m chalking it down as the backbone just can’t keep up with it, there’s quite a few open issues on the Github(the lemmy one) for optimization and performance errors, I honestly don’t think Lemmy is going to be able to handle the influx of users at a large scale without some of those issues being addressed. I’m going to hold out but, I can forsee people deciding it’s not worth having to wait 40 seconds for a comment to post, or having to refresh multiple times due to Api errors. Hopefully they can get it straightened out
for point of ref; this comment it took 70 seconds to post using connect, and when I tried to go back to home I was met with the 500 error
