July 1 2023 - Lemmy is unstable, so discussion here as backup

[RocketDerp]

👋 Welcome!

I tried to use !lemmy_helper community homed on Lemmy.ml, but I can't even get into it for the past 2 weeks with reliability.

Running a Lemmy is a lot of technical and fast-acting concerns such as law enforcement wanting to know who on your Lemmy instance might have just done a mass shooting or a bomb threat. So when crisis comes, having a tool that can rapidly be modified was my intention for lemmy-helper.

Even if it only serves to inspire better tools, I threw it out there because I see Lemmy as having a crisis of technology problems of performance, data integrity (lost comments/posts), and scaling.
