Why do the instances keep going down? It makes me think that this is not a reliable social network, but the alternatives are not as good.

I was actually scrolling through to see if anyone posted anything about the outage hahaha. Do they make announcement posts to warn about an outage for Lemmy version updates?

Apparently not. I had no warning.

At least we got other instances, so we can keep scrolling lol

Other comments seem to indicate it's not a planned outage but just the server getting too many hits.
