Loading is mostly OK, but sometimes things take forever
We (and you) see many 502 errors, resulting in empty pages etc.
System load: The server is roughly at 60% cpu usage and around 25GB RAM usage. (That is, if we restart Lemmy every 30 minutes. Else memory will go to 100%)

Bugs

Replying to a DM doesn't seem to work. When hitting reply, you get a box with the original message which you can edit and save (which does nothing)
2FA seems to be a problem for many people. It doesn't always work as expected.

Troubleshooting

We have many people helping us, with (site) moderation, sysadmin, troubleshooting, advise etc. There currently are 25 people in our Discord, including admins of other servers. In the Sysadmin channel we are with 8 people. We do troubleshooting sessions with these, and sometimes others. One of the Lemmy devs, @nutomic@lemmy.ml is also helping with current issues.

So, all is not yet running smoothly as we hoped, but with all this help we'll surely get there! Also thank you all for the donations, this helps giving the possibility to use the hardware and tools needed to keep Lemmy.world running!

Sometimes when I post a comment (without any image) it takes forever to post and sometimes it keeps spinning and I need to cancel and post again. My internet connection is fine (100 Mbps) and it works flawlessly on other websites. Is it happening due to overloading on the lemmy server?

I wonder if it's possible you're getting unlucky and are posting when the server is being rebooted

I can confirm it blackholes on text only posts more frequently than 30 minutes, so this could be part of the problem it isn't the complete problem.

I've had the same issue. A poster in another thread suggested selecting "English" in the Select Language drop-down menu before hitting the Reply button. It may be a coincidence, but that has worked for me to prevent the eternal spinner.
