lemmy.world has been so unstable for that I decided to switch to another instance. That's the beauty of the Fediverse though.
I setup my own Uptime Kuma Monitor for lemmy.world just for fun.. the statistics are crazy
Oof that's brutal. Didn't realize it was that bad.
There's a lot of small instances wanting to become medium/big instances and share the load, but people need to show a bit of initiative and join them. I just made this account, and here's a list of a few other small servers with room to spare. YMMV but these all look pretty solid at a glance.

Can I transfer my subscribed list and anything else?
You can transfer your subscriptions using this tool, but your posts and comments obviously can't be transferred.

At least that's what I've been told, I haven't used it myself.
I keep hearing about people switching, but is it just registering a new account at another instance? I joined world but would gladly jump instances to something more stable.
Just pick a mid-sized instance and there's a 99% chance it's more stable than Lemmy.world right now.
Look at users who don't sound insane and see where they're posting from.
What happens if that instance shuts down?
I have accounts on multiple instances. My Lemmy app lets me just switch accounts easily if one is having issues.
Hey, sorry for the late reply.
You can either look at https://join-lemmy.org/ or https://lemmyverse.net/ to find a new instance.
I also found this tool that helps you to sync communities you're subscribed to to other accounts on other instances: https://github.com/wescode/lemmy_migrate
Edit: I found another migration tool which has a GUI, haven't tested it yet though. https://github.com/CMahaff/lasim
Enjoy your new instance
Thanks!
Does the colored bar on top have a measure?
I think it’s an hour but I’m not really sure. They are the most recent pings.
