A few weeks ago Lemmy was buggy on computers and there were no good mobile clients out there, now on PC the site is pretty stable and fast, and there are now some pretty good iOS/Android clients too. Thanks to all the people who made this possible!

    It just needs horizontal so that you could throw more servers at an instance and improve performance.

    At some point a single community will be so active that one server won’t be enough , it’s better not to split it just so that it will be easier for the software.

      Lemm.ee has horizontal scaling, and afaik it’s the only lemmy instance to have added it. He has a sticky on meta@lemm.ee that talks about how he’s using a half dozen different servers to split the load, although there’s a few services that can’t be split like image caching, so they just get their own server. I think the changes are being pulled into future updates so hopefully other lemmy instances can start doing the same
