 The spike from the recent innflux of twitter users is so enourmous it has completely distorted the users graph. You cant evenn read the numbers any more and the daily user graph spiked past the total user graph. Wow.. ok then. 32 comments
@bonifartius Yea we have a pretty beefy server, way more than what we need.  @freemo handling a 33% increase in users without big problems is no mean feat :D do you have numbers on how the network traffic increased? one does read that it's like a DDOS for some @bonifartius Network I need to find some stats for that.. in terms of jobs, we went from 1.5 million jobs per day to 7.7 million jobs... so id expect network traffic to be somewhere in the same ballpark @freemo that's quite a bit! ๐ @bonifartius We have plenty of breathing room though, even now we could handle more. @freemo looking at the graph there will likely be some more people :partyparrot: @freemo @bonifartius I was wondering about all those doom toots... apart from some minor glitches it seems fine, yet everyone complained - now i know why. Some servers are running on some very minimal machines. There are a ton of one-person instances running on raspberryPis @freemo @bonifartius Yeah, but from what i gather doomtoots came from this ground zero main instance? mastodon.social?  @trinsec You are looking at a 2-year long chart, not the one-week chart.. that little sliver is the last week @trinsec The one from a half year ago is the first time anyone heard musk was buying twitter... so they are related :) @nullifidian @freemo Question is not what the emerald mine apartheit space karen will ruin, question is what will it *not* ruin! @nullifidian If you like that, maybe visit where i yoinked it from: https://www.jwz.org/blog/  @freemo sparks from twitter collision are visible from mastodon ๐๐ป๐ฆ๐ @freemo Will be curious to see how it dies back down. My longtime mastodon using friend is convinced most of the tweeps will sort into their own servers that keep up the culture and posting habits of twitter, rather than truly acclimate to existing servers. I think tweeps could definitely benefit from laying off the outrage reactionary pedal a bit, but at the same time it's been eye opening to see marginalized cross-overs point to problems in mastodon that are hard to see from the inside.  |

@freemo it's pretty nice that qoto holds up so well :) haven't had any big issues, i think i got a one-off 500 error yesterday.
