How the Best and Hot algorithms work on Reddit is completely up to Reddit. They 100% tailor it to the user.
Star Trek ships at home. And Game of Thrones characters at work.
Have you seen the pyramids? Those old Egyptians were techies.
It was the first to throw some real money behind it’s server infrastructure. A month ago most Lemmy instances - even the “big” ones ran on $10 a month 2 vCPU VPSs.
There was another influx early in June when the API changes were announced but before the blackouts even happened.
Most instances with public signups started struggling but Lemmy.world launched and Ruud upgraded the server hardware almost daily to keep up.
Other instances even had to pause signups from time to time but world kept working and so gobbled up most signups on those days.
Once it got to be a top 3 instance and then top 2 and then first it became a self sustaining snowball as a lot of people chose the biggest instance by default.
And before that Slashdot
You need a reverse proxy like nginx or traefik. Your mastodon server is using the web ports. Lemmy also wants to use the same ports. Obviously the can’t both use them.
The solution is to let neither use the ports and set them up on some other ports.
The reverse proxy is then set up as your main “web server”. It will then look at every request coming in and based on the domain name or url requested redirect (or rather forward or proxy) the request to the correct service… mastadon or Lemmy.
I run dozens of services on the same server. And use traefik to sit in front and manage it all.
Just be less poor. /s
But seriously in business class you can tell them if you want to be woken up or not and they’ll remember and respect it. Or course you can also probably get something to eat even if you missed meal service.
