There's a significant amount of discussion surrounding the issue of lemmy.ml servers reaching their maximum capacity. As someone who already has an account on lemmy.ml, what actions can you take? (lemmy.ml)

Are the registry procedures causing the problem? Since most of my communities are on lemmy.ml, wouldn't I still be using lemmy.lm’s bandwidth? Or is it more crucial to ensure that the communities are distributed more evenly across different instances?

Media from users of lemmy.ml won't load. You wouldn't be able to subscribe to communities on lemmy.ml. But I think every other instance would show cached data and hold any new comments/posts/votes to sync when lemmy.ml comes back up. I'm not sure how long that cache is kept.
