    My understanding (from running an instance) is that this isn’t something cloudflare is going to help with, it’s the database on these instances locking up. It happens to my and multiple other instances too, and i have monitoring from multiple sources so I get notified and can restart the server/docker containers. Improvements should come in the next lemmy versions.

        I mean they’ll probably benefit from some sort of CDN, and CF being free really helps keep costs down. Are there alternatives you’d suggest?

        It kind of amazes me that they’ve not been using one up until recently given their size. I’m anti-lemmy.world but I do sympathise with their technical issues.
